Free trip to see FELA!

Feb 4, 2010, 5:32pm SoundRoots World Music & mp3 Blog
Free trip to see FELA! No, SoundRoots isn't setting you up with a journey to the Great Beyond to converse with the late great father of Afrobeat. But Afropop Worldwide has the next best thing: a contest that will result in two people receiving airfare to New York, a hotel stay, and tickets to the Broadway musical FELA! Is it a good show? I haven't seen it, but Ben Brantley's review in the NYT begins thusly: There should be dancing in the streets. When you leave the Eugene [...]

Everything Clicks for Benin-Born Guitarist Lionel Loueke

Jan 26, 2010, 9:00am Spinner.com
Everything Clicks for Benin-Born Guitarist Lionel Loueke Filed under: Around the World Like many artists who have explored and embraced music from across cultures, guitarist Lionel Loueke is wary about bringing exotic, unfamiliar sounds to mainstream audiences. Of course, in his case the audience in question is in Benin, where Loueke was born and raised. And the sounds are those of the modern jazz he embraced as a music student in Paris in the mid-'90s and has personalized in the decade since moving to the U.S. to study at the Berklee College of Music [...]

Jan 20, 2010, 5:12am The Passion of the Weiss
Dan Satch & The Professional Atomic 8 Band and The Inspiration of Fela Kuti Such is the influence of Fela Kuti that a compilation dedicated to the music he inspired could conceivably include almost anything made in Central and West Africa during the decade of this outfit. He was John Lennon and Bob Marley rolled into one Lincoln log-sized cone of igbo (Indian Hemp). He created a viscous solution called goro , consisting of cooked weed soaked in honey, spices, and oils - the original honey-dipped spliff. Along the way, he wrote some of the most immortal and funky cuts ever etched on wax, ran for president, declared his [...]
