Siempre es que este mixtape me estaba sacando canas. El problema no fue la calidad de los temas que llegaron a nuestras manos durante el mes, sino la heterogeneidad de los mismos. Concretamente tocó sacrificar las canciones de Dom y Diehard ... simplemente no encajaron. Tampoco nos dieron permiso para poner la de the band in heaven , que es de lo mejor que he oído en las últimas semanas. Ok, expliquemos un poco cómo quedó el asunto. Comenzamos con Royal Headache que nos viene gustando bastante. Hay primicia de Mark [...]
This mixtape like all the mixtapes I've put together is a collection of the best new (and old music). It has been thoughtfully curated into this delightful mixtape by yours truly . This one is for NASA cuz they're doin it for the LULZ. Play Friday Mixtape 103: Download Friday Mixtape 102 Tracklist: Please Go Easy With Me - S. E. Rogie Second Chance (RAC Mix) - [...]
Vampy Weeks, as Carles calls them, quickly made Afropop the most trendy musical influence in indie rock when they burst on the scene in 2008. East-West crossovers quickly became common place on Pitchfork. But understanding Afropop as an influence only, or as something relatively newly discovered, is quite ethnocentric. African pop, although it surely took musical cues from the West, is something uniquely African, something that's been in existence for some time now, and something that should be celebrated in its purest form. So in honor of African pop, try this "palm-wine" guitarist out (palm-wine guitar is a subgenre of [...]
If y'all aren't daily readers of Aquarium Drunkard , then that means you probably missed the Mondo Boys' Tidal Wave Mixtape last summer. We listened to the mix while driving to the AT two weekends ago (hugging tree part of hike pictured above), and despite the awful (awesome) sound system of my 1999 Subaru, the tunes were just about perfect. Download it here . Comes with the S.E. Rogie tune below. [...]
Something to cool off with: Sierra Leone's S.E. Rogie, highlife and palm wine guitarist, as featured on our Mondo Boys Tidal Wave mixtape last summer (still fresh). Weird Summer three on the horizon... MP3: S.E. Rogie :: Please Go Easy With Me MP3: S.E. Rogie :: Do Me Justice ------- ______________________________ ______________________________ _________________________
Two albums for you here. The first is a collection of some of S. E. Rogie's finest palm wine guitar, and it's one I've been meaning to upload since I got it. A guitarist or 'serious' artist he is not, but Rogie sure does know a soothing melody, and while not much changes throughout the record, try and let yourself be seduced by the gentle sounds and even gentler humour of Rogie. The second record is one that all too rapidly has become something of a 'great' in my mind. Ibro Diabate combines the melodies and backing vocals [...]
Find Chimurenga Pt. 1 Here , and Pt. 2 Here . SO, none of this music is actually Chimurenga Music. This was something I always knew was going to happen, but, the name still stands; Chimurenga means struggle in Shona, and if we divide human life into Struggle or the Absence of Struggle, this music always applies. (See what I did there.) Today's theme is (loosely) 'Backgrounds to Vampire Weekend'. Of course, Vampire Weekend draw from many and various different styles of music, but [...]
Welcome to the second installment of the DJ Evil Vince curated Muzzle of Bees mix. If you missed the Latin Compilation , you can grab it here in full. This time through, DJ Evil Vince shares Africa , filled with standards and introductory tunes as well as rarities and gems. Listen/Enjoy: DJ Evil Vince :: Africa 01 Doudou N'Diaye Rose - "Cheikh Anta Diop" 02 Babatunde Olatunji - "Akiwowo" 03 Leon Mobley & [...]
Song obsessions are those songs that we listen to on repeat. I noticed that my obsessions are often a week long. I also thought that other people might have similar obsessions. I've collected a panel of a few like-minded individuals and gotten their "song obsessions of the week." Quite often it's easy to explain why the song is good; it's much hard to explain why we're obsessed. Maybe you'll become obsessed with one of these. - Adrian ( me ): Horse Feathers - Curs in the Weeds [...]
