[sojourner]

Toumani Diabate and Ballake Sissoko - New Ancient Strings

Am playing this a lot lately - had it for absolutely bloody ages but barely listened to it. I'd like to get my hands on more of this kora stuff - it sounds so different to all other string music...bit like a mellow deeply toned harp but with all these African mad rhythms

 

[Ron Merlin]

[ericjarvis]

Bembeya Jazz National - Bembeya

Fabulous. That hip rolling West African bass and percussion, a giggling guitar on top, and bursts of belly laughs from arguably the most joyous brass section ever. Absolutely love it to death.

Motherfuckers.

 

[blairsh]

DJ Hidden - Things To Come

 

[ericjarvis]

Boukman Eksperyans - Live At Red Rock

Like Gregory Isaacs and a soca band covering Edith Piaf's unrecorded political salsa songs. Strange and slightly disconcerting.

+ random Suicide Bid tracks
