Description


Two seminal Peel Sessions by hip-hop pioneers Llwybr Llaethog from 1987 and 1989. The last ever release on Ankst Musik. This music is politically conscious and streetwise. Llwybr Llaethog created a narrative for themselves that was unique - a sound, a voice, a presence, an energy that turned the tables on Welsh reality at exactly the right time and place along popular music's recorded timeline. When we talk about the late eighties and the time of these Peel Sessions the band exist for me back then in opposition to the malign forces of neo-capitalistic liberal conservatism which was politically and historically on the move. Llwybr Llaethog with their music were fighting the forces that wanted to possess, dominate and silence all our individual identities - erase our wonderful differences, stamp upon and destroy our works and messages. But that couldn't happen as long as bands this vital are making music.
