Depois de chegar a temer pela saúde da Soundway, Miles Cleret voltou com a força toda e uma série de edições que vincam a vocação arqueológica da Soundway. As duas mais recentes edições concentram, uma vez mais, atenções na Nigéria, reforçando assim a excelente série iniciada com Nigeria Special há um par de anos.
A Soundway propõe agora duas novas edições:
Nigeria Afrobeat Special e um Volume 2 para Nigeria Special. Depois da recente e excelente caixa dedicada à música do Ghana - cinco vinis recheados de highlife e funk numa caixa com um look fantástico – o regresso à carga não podia ser melhor. Ainda por cima, entendendo as especificidades do seu mercado, Miles está a colocar mais música nas edições em vinil do que nas edições em CD:
