    The sound of 70's afro psych! Not much is known about this mystery band Karthala 72, a groovy dark combination of funk, african and psychedelia. “Dans Le Coeur Du Feu,” is driving percussive beat with echoed guitar twangs and lots of drama - sounds a bit like the music "cry chase scene" in 70's spy movie.  "Delores" is more of a mellow track, the percussion is brought to the forefront, haunting glockenspiel and portentous guitar are balanced by a buoyant sax line that snakes its way into the song at the halfway mark. Taking influence from the traditional music of the Comoros, to Anatolian bazaar jazz to the more familiar beat of percussion led afro funk. Limited! KILLER!
