Sankofa Afro Funk is a powerful, vintage-inspired sample pack that journeys back to the golden era of African groove music, where West African polyrhythms collided with American funk, soul and jazz to create the electrifying sound known as Afro-Funk. Sankofa, a Ghanaian word meaning “to go back and retrieve”, perfectly captures the spirit of this collection: honouring musical history while delivering timeless, modern-ready production tools.
Inspired by legendary Afro-funk pioneers such as Osibisa and Ebo Taylor from Ghana, Fela Kuti, Tony Allen and Orlando Julius from Nigeria, this pack delivers hypnotic rhythms, deep syncopated bass feels, wah-driven guitars and bold horn sections built for dance floors, film scoring and authentic Afro-centric productions.
Produced by Philip “Stucky Kojo” Owusu of DNA Music Planet Records, with blazing guitars from the iconic Owura Kay, commanding horns by Edwin Adu-Adjei, and vocal performances from Stucky Kojo himself, Sankofa Afro Funk is packed with live-recorded guitars, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, congas, bongos, tambourines and layered percussion.
Perfect for Afrobeat, Afro-funk, retro soul, cinematic scoring and global groove productions—this is African rhythm heritage reborn for today’s producers.
