Limited triple vinyl LP pressing in gatefold sleeve. Includes digital download. 2016 release. Kenya Special was one of Soundway Records' most popular releases and is considered a milestone in East African compilations. Soundway is now proud to present Kenya Special : Volume Two.

The featured songs on Kenya Special : Volume Two bend the rules, break away from existing genres and sometimes experiment with foreign music trends. The approach to musical rediscovery behind Kenya Special : Volume Two has it's origins in a youthful movement of vinyl collecting as well as, to some extent, club culture.
