Great for anything: travels, dinners, acknowledging new musical traditions based on flexions of the occidental canon inspirated by Ethiopia's traditional music by native Ethiops, etc... Yes, I inverted B and A sides, ty stefankempkes3769 and skatethasimpsons for pointing it out.

B
Bahta Gebre Hiwot - Ewnet Yet Lagegnesh 00:00
Mulatu Astatke - Yegele Tezeta 02:45
Bahta Gebre Hiwot - Bemgnot Alnorm 06:01
Mulatu Astatke - Ykermo Saw 08:37
Tesfa Mariam Kidane - Heiwote 12:53

A
Mulatu Astatke - Munaye Bahta 18:12
Mulatu Astatke - Meche Dereshe 23:16
Tesfa Mariam Kidane - Yetesfa Tezeta 27:13
Mulatu Astatke - Kasalefkut Hulu 29:52
Mulatu Astatke - Tezeta 32:36

I do not own this music. I do not monetize this. I will remove this if authorship is enforced. People must have the option to listen this because it is good or have historical value. Ty for your attention and a nice day for you too.

  • Thanks for this playlist. Quick note, Mulatu Astatke - Tezeta 12:53 and Tesfa Mariam Kidane - Heiwote 32:36 are the wrong way around :)

    this really is one of my top 5 most wanted tapes - if anybody owns a copy from Paxico and will sell it to me (even if you're reading this comment 9 years after it was posted), i would be so grateful! thank you :)

    It's things like this that make Youtube the best social media platform. I probably never would have learned about modern Ethiopian music if it weren't for people posting on YouTube.
  • I bet many people here whenever they thought of Ethiopia, they thought of famine or wars. Never of music as cool as this.
  • @apedreus
    No lyrics, no autotune, second-rate recording equipment, worn-out instruments, great musicians, creativity = excellence.
  • @user-pe2pt2bs7x
    What a masterpiece ! To anybody listening to this may god be with you always 🙏
  • Omg, i have heard this sampled soooo many times, and now I get to hear the original, what a treat! So way ahead of its time, and so timeless!
  • これは1950年代の日本で試されるべきでした。残念なことにその後日本ではジャズもロックもそれらの旋律はアメリカナイズされてしまいました。
  • As much as I hate YouTube sometimes, the recommendations are fucking fire. 🔥

    Who believes and in 1972 there is such a musical production like this and guess where ? Ethiopia??? Truely u makes me think again in all what i know about life..thanks
  • Cuando tenía 15 años vivía en Alemania (en Argentina sufríamos una dictadura militar). Me llamaron como traductor de italiano con alemán. Mucha gente de Eritrea sabe hablar italiano. Hice amistad con ellos y me regalaron cintas con música de Eritrea y de Etiopía. Amo sus músicas ❤

    I love this. I first heard these songs in the movie Broken Flowers and have been trying to find them. Then this morning the thumbnail shows up on the home page. It's gonna be a very blessed day. Thank you!

    Except for the ads YT shoehorns into the middle of every song. Makes this gem almost impossible to stick with. Damn it YT!

    listening to this on an overcast Spring morning, and a hummingbird came to my window to stoop and listen. I've never seen a hummingbird stoop in my entire life.
  • Like zoinks, you guys, this abandoned factory sure is spooky
