2CD/BOOK Legendary ethnomusicologist and field-recording pioneer, Hugh Tracey founded the International Library of African Music (ILAM) in 1954. Today, ILAM preserves thousands of historical recordings and has become the greatest repository of African music in the world. Dust-to-Digital partner with ILAM to present Listen All Around: The Golden Age of Central and East African Music -- a compilation of newly-transferred and remastered recordings that Hugh Tracey made between 1950-1958. The recordings presented here were made in central and eastern Africa -- specifically, the Belgian Congo (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo), Kenya, Tanganyika, and Zanzibar (now Tanzania). The genre of music Tracey documented, and the focus of this double-CD and book is rumba and its variations -- Congolese rumba, dansi, and benga. The recordings, photographs and detailed liner notes included in this set provide a rich point of immersion into the mid-20th-century music of eastern and central Africa. Including 47 newly-transferred and remastered recordings that Hugh Tracey made in central and eastern Africa between 1950-1958, Listen All Around includes 84-page hardcover book and two CDs.

- "Tracey's recordings work like a time machine. He not only recorded sound but also lives, with a spirit that must be considered phenomenal for field recordings fifty or sixty years old. Even among today's abundant choices in world music, these are the gems that I look for." --Richard Dorsett, RootsWorld
- "Hugh Tracey has stood as one of the major figures of modern musicology, in spite of the fact that he himself started as an amateur, not an academic. He became the noted expert he is known as today by traveling, listening to and recording the music of sub-Saharan Africa for almost forty years, spurred on by a personal fascination with the music and a self-proclaimed passion for the cultures that created it. His work made him one of the most important non-artists (and non-Africans) to work in African music." --from The Sounds of Africa, Hugh Tracey's African Legacy, (http://www.rootsworld.com/rw/feature/tracey.html)
- "Hugh Tracey, whose pioneering field recordings from the 1920s onwards constitute one of the most important archives of African music." --Andy Hamilton, The Wire
- "The first important documenter of Africa's music, Hugh Tracey was willing to trek to far-off realms in search of musical treasure and, moreover, had the patience to wait for it once he got there." --Richard Henderson, The Wire
