IOSS was formed in 1985 when businessman Hugo Kisima dissolved his group the Orchestra Safari Sound, and recruited six members of Mlimani Park Orchestra to form a new orchestra. IOSS & Mlimani were considered the two top rivals for leadership of the Tanzanian music scene for a time but for some reason Kisima dissolved IOSS in the early ’90s. Confusingly, at one point Ndala Kasheba briefly revived the “old” Orchestra Safari Sound, and there may have been two factions of the International Orchestra Safari Sound, the IOSS (Ndekule) and IOSS (Duku Duku).
I was wondering if you owned the right to this album, for a remastering project?
PS: Your work is great, Africa has been influenced by outsider media for too long it is about time that this changes, and that is part of my mission as Egyptian who grew up in Cairo.

Hello there,
I was wondering if you owned the right to this album, for a remastering project?
PS: Your work is great, Africa has been influenced by outsider media for too long it is about time that this changes, and that is part of my mission as Egyptian who grew up in Cairo.
Warmest regards,

Thank you so much!
