If you claim your history, you will own your future!
There are numerous archives of music in Africa, recorded from back in colonial times up until today.
Much of this music was recorded onto perishable storage media, like magnetic tapes. These tapes are not everlasting. Quite on the contrary. They deteriorate with time, and soon many unique and valuable music recordings may be lost.
The national treasure of music recordings that exist in African archives must be transformed into digital music files. We want to make sure that they will not get lost, but that they can bring joy, enlightenment, and inspiration to new generations of Africa.
