Sena Dagadu arrived in Hungary 22 years ago and exactly 20 years ago he released his first album, First One, which was presented on the new ship A38. Since then, Sena has become an indispensable foundation in Hungarian popular music, but he has traveled a lot around the world with his countless contributions. It is no coincidence that the chameleon is Sena's totem animal, which is already featured on the cover of the ominous first album, because it can create miracles anywhere and with anyone, be it a jubilant festival crowd or a theater audience yearning for Shakespeare's sonnets. Sena's First One album was released in only 100 copies on vinyl, and this is perhaps the most difficult and expensive Hungarian-related album to obtain. A repress of First One is being prepared for the anniversary, which will be available here for the first time at Hajó's 20th birthday festival, and quite a few members of the original team, Dj Mango, Dj Dermot, Busa, Kemon, and the musicians of Irie Maffia, will come together to play it again under the leadership of Sena that legendary concert from 2003!
A38 Ship anchored twenty years ago as the focal point of Budapest's cultural life. We celebrate this twenty years with twenty nights. Concerts, parties and You!...
