Pulsing electro-Fra Fra and DIY Afro-gospel combine on God Created Everything, the debut album by Ghanaian singer, Linda Ayupuka. Reminiscent of recent releases by Otim Alpha (Nyege Nyege) and Ata Kak, God Created Everything captures the rawness and immediacy of early-career recordings from the likes of Oumou Sangaré and Rokia Traoré, and heralds anew West African vocal talent: Linda Ayupuka. Produced by Francis Ayamga, (King Ayisoba, This Is FraFra Power), at his locally renowned Top Link Studio in Bongo, Northern Ghana, God Created Everything features eight highly charged exchanges of polyrhythmic dancefloor beats where Linda and Francis channel traditional Gurenɛ-language, Frafra ceremonial music with rapid fire tempos and hypnotic drum loops, referencing an international palette of dance styles from Malian DJ-led Balani Show street sound, electro-acholi to modern dancehall/Rn'B. For fans of: Oumou Sangaré, Rokia Traoré, Nyege Nyege, Otim Alpha, Ata Kak, King Ayisoba. "Fomallebazaa" features Faraday.
