“Aza” by DDC Mlimani Park Orchestra is a classic Tanzanian muziki wa dansi track that captures the emotional storytelling the band is known for. Released during the 1980s, a peak period for the band, the song was produced by the orchestra’s own members, including key figures like Hassan Bitchuka and Cosmas Chidumule. The song, typical of their style, begins with a slow, lyrical introduction that highlights the narrative before transitioning into an energetic interplay of vocals and instruments, symbolizing the escalating emotional intensity of the story being told.
