Global Soundtrack of Youth

Global Soundtrack of Youth Volume 1

Our first project celebrated the turn of the millennium where we produced a 7-track compilation of original music traveling to three of the seven countries situated along the Meridian Line/GMT – Ghana, Mali and the UK. The EP was a collaborative production between producers and young artists from these countries and facilitated an exchange of ideas, culture and musical practices and traditions as we all entered a new era.

Completing The Colour of Life – GMT vol. 1, was a great achievement for COL, receiving critical acclaim in progressive urban music circles spanning the UK, Africa, Europe and the US. Being able to learn from and interact with young people in their own different, yet similar environments, inspired the team to want to explore further the issues that affect global, urban youth communities. The idea that young people, with different cultures, customs and languages, could communicate via the universal language of music and express their views and experiences with people, linked by the same time zone, was a powerful concept.

To date 1,000 CDs have been distributed to individuals, record labels, corporations and magazines.

We are currently working on producing our next compilation album for further information please e-mail
