Makossa
Cameroon's bass-driven dance groove
Makosa je sjajan plesni ritam iz priobalnog regiona Kameruna, koji je globalno poznat od Manu Dibangoa iz 1972. godine, hita “Soul Makossa”. To se često spominje uz Bikutsi, brži, perkusivan stil iz povijesti oko Yaundéa.
Origin & history
Makossa grew out of Cameroon's coastal Douala region as a guitar-and-horn dance groove built around a heavy bass line.
Manu Dibango's 1972 hit “Soul Makossa” carried the sound to the world, becoming a global hit and shaping music far beyond Cameroon. It's often mentioned alongside Bikutsi, a faster, percussive style historically tied to the Beti/Ewondo people around Yaoundé.
