Fela Needs You to Complete Him

Felamania is gripping America – or maybe it just has the country in a loose, friendly grasp, but his albums are being reissued and the Broadway play Fela! continues in New York City. Now you can be a part of this not-exactly-a-groundswell-but-more-than-a-tremor and remix Fela. At Indaba  Music, musicians and fans can download the tracks from the original Broadway cast recording of “I.T.T.” and remix them. The best remixes will win an Apple iPad, Eskuche Control Headphones, an official release of the winning remix by Fela Cast Recordings, CDs and more. Those who aren’t remixers can go to the site to vote for their favorites.

Just for the fun of it, you can download Fela’s “Zombie” here.
