African song found on a flea market tape

Hello!

Recently I found very charming to record my own mix tapes so I bought 3 boxes of cassettes on a flea market. For curiosity, this was the first one that I tried to see what was on it before recording over it, and I found out this that I think that is some african music. I live in the countryside of brazil and never heard anything like it. May I get some help?

Making Dedication by First Person has been licensed for a film premiering at FrightFest London

Wanted to share a significant update about Making Dedication by First Person has been licensed for a film premiering at FrightFest London Making Dedication.

The song has been officially licensed for use in “Do You Want to Play,” an independent horror film directed by Nick Lyon. The film will have its World Premiere at Tubi FrightFest 2026 in London on Sunday, August 30th at 3:45 PM at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square, Discovery screen.

For those unfamiliar with a sync license — it’s an agreement that allows a filmmaker to synchronize a piece of music to visual content. Making Dedication will appear in the actual film, whether over a scene, in the background, or during the credits, and will be listed on the film’s official music cue sheet.

The film was also presented at the Cannes 2026 Film Market in May, where global distribution rights were opened to buyers. A wider theatrical or streaming release is expected to be announced once distribution is finalized.

Thank you to the Lostwave community for keeping this song alive. Without your dedication in tracking it down, none of this would have happened.

Dan Slaine - The Singer [USA, Lounge](197-)

The artist paints an incredibly bleak, autobiographical portrait of the life of a working lounge singer in the late 70's midwest of America. It's a rare and moving insight into life in the trenches of this long-lost musical world.

Here's a collection of great rock songs that the masses didn't appreciate enough for them to gain mass attention or longevity like the big rock bands.

These are songs that range from the 70's all the way to current.
