A wonderful result of a recording trip to Guinée-Conakry, hard work and masterful production; Zifas album Africa Café has a very special place of it's own in the singers catalogue. With the sounds of Conakrys busy streets, rythmic guitars, suggestive basslines from the Bolon, soaring melodies and explosive traditional drums and percussion, it takes you right to where the action is. You are welcome to have a sip of this dark roasted, fullbodied, steaming hot and extremely addictive cup of coffee;
Africa Café.

Right As Rain
Zifas second production from 1999 gave the artist a wider possibility to use live instruments in recording than in his debut album. The result is a "big" and rich sound for you to enjoy through large speakers in the house. An album that will "grow on you" for every new listening and become a favorite.

Zifas debut album from 1997. Zifas ticket to a career as a worldmusic artist. The album contains steady beats, often programmed, acompanied by live percussion that with their organic rythm makes the air move and pulls the dancer in you to his/her feet. Happy dancing!
