2016 release. Kenya Special was one of Soundway Records' most popular releases and is considered a milestone in East African compilations. Soundway is now proud to present Kenya Special : Volume Two. This time the team of compilers have gone to even greater lengths to share a small part of what is slowly being accepted as an essential element of East Africa's cultural heritage: the history of recorded popular music. The featured songs on Kenya Special : Volume Two bend the rules, break away from existing genres and sometimes experiment with foreign music trends. The approach to musical rediscovery behind Kenya Special : Volume Two has it's origins in a youthful movement of vinyl collecting as well as, to some extent, club culture.
Issued in a 3-panel-digisleeve.
40-page booklet includes extensive liner notes and photographs.
