Tamikrest, Toumastin
Westerners tend to group Tamikrest into the "desert rock" movement, a vague and cinematically inclined term for music that would sound appropriate set under images of the Saharan desert, complete with tired camels and heat lines. The band hails from Mali, where about two-thirds of land is desert, so the grouping is at least geographically [...]

Tartit - Eha Ehenia
What do people think when they hear the term "African music"? I'd guess a large proportion of them think of something very much like this: percussion and chanted vocals with a bit of ululation. Any ideas as to why this idea is so pervasive? I'd like to believe it's because when done right, it's a powerful and archetypical sound, but I can't quite buy that answer, even when it's done as well as this performance of Eha Eleneia . Tartit are often linked with the whole Malian "desert blues" sound, but this is anything but: [...]

African
Eritrean song via Lakpohsti Inspired by the video and this excellent map from Strange Maps , I began to ponder on how utterly ridiculous it is that the Westerns Societies take Africa as one big culture when there's more than one culture living in different countries save the whole continent. Therefore today's selection covers a few albums that I've found out last year, namely Mali's Tartit (which means unity and not your sordid imagination), Mauritania's Khalifa Ould Eide & Dimi Mint Abba and the South African percussion ensemble Amampondo [...]

MONDAY'S SUNDAY MIX TAPE - NUMBER 116
I didn't do anything today, and I loved it. Actually, I didn't love it, because I woke up with one of the all-time worst hangovers I've ever experienced. Last night I was treated to the company of Jack, Ken and Katie. We decided -- after little deliberation -- to play a drinking game. You see, The Simpsons Movie was on television, and someone (I think it was Katie) decided on a simple set of rules. We had shot glasses and a spinner set up in front of us. Rule number one: whenever a main character (Bart, Homer, Lisa, [...]

Bassekou Kouyate and Tartit, The Barbican, 29/09/08
In recent years I've probably listened to more music from Mali and Bali than anywhere else outside the English-speaking world. So much so that I convinced myself that the richness of their musical heritage must somehow be linked to the similarity of the sound of their names. There had to be something in [...]

SUNDAY MIX TAPE - NUMBER 98
Today (the day after the day after the day after the Winter Solstice, as pictured above) is my 1,001st post since starting this blog. In celebration of reaching the 1K mark, I have put together an utterly massive Mix Tape for you. Bandwidth, be damned! I speak without hyperbole when I say that life cannot get much better than it is right now. After a full day of work yesterday, a co-worker and I ducked into Red Lion for a bite to eat. We were first joined by her boyfriend, then later by Phoebe, Rebecca, Sari (plus a [...]

SUNDAY MIX TAPE - VOLUME 59
Are your brackets busted? This was the first year since I was a wee little one that I neglected to fill out an NCAA tournament bracket in advance. March Madness is only marginally interesting when there are no dramatic storylines or Cinderella teams. Two one-seeds and two two-seeds in the Final Four is about as captivating as the Patriots making the Super Bowl. With all this (one paragraph of) sports talk, I've probably lost my entire Sunday evening audience of sexually ambiguous, mildly anorexic, ironic-shirt-wearing, antisocial music snobs.
