Retroripe

With Gilo

Get ready for a taste of the rare and the revolutionary on Retroripe, your monthly dose of unearthed African musical gems on Oroko Radio! This May, in honor of my birth month, we're cranking the volume back to the electrifying sounds that dominated Ugandan airwaves in the 1980s.

We'll be digging into a vibrant mix of mostly South African bubblegum pop and disco, featuring iconic tracks by Brenda Fassie, Pat Shange, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, The Crane Band, Jununu, Condrey Ziqubu and a treasure trove of other unforgettable artists.

So, dust off your dancing shoes and join us on this fun musical trip down memory lane! This show will be sure to have you grooving and reminiscing. Don't miss it!
