Daptone boss Gabriel Roth is at the production console for this one, and being a back-to-basics kind of guy, there\u2019s less experimentation this time around, if no less inspiration. The album sticks tight to Afrobeat\u2019s original Nigerian template, from its cover art, through its intricate rhythms and blazing brass, to its defiant we-the-people exhortations. Of course, all politics are local, as the saying goes, and so this album\u2019s a salute to the Brooklyn of back in the day, the band\u2019s birthplace, and a critique of the gentrification inexorably erasing it. Baritone saxman Mart\u00edn Perna leads the band still, but <em>Fu Chronicles<\/em> really belongs to the lead singer, Nigerian transplant Duke Amoyo \u2013 illustrator (that cover art), fashion designer, kung fu instructor, and first-rate frontman. There\u2019s thus a some martial arts mysticism mixed in with the West African folklore and anti-colonial sermons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 400px; height: 340px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3919254763\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http:\/\/antibalas.bandcamp.com\/album\/fu-chronicles\">Fu Chronicles by Antibalas<\/a><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two decades in, Antibalas are pretty unquestionably the premier act in the global rediscovery of the \u201970s Afrobeat sound, which they themselves kicked off.
