Often an album sounds distinctly influenced by a certain artist, by a place the songs' writer has been, by the environment in which the music was written or recorded. Occasionally, these kinds of influencing factors come together in such a crystalline way that it can be said that a set of recordings was actually inspired by a specific event. It is the 2008 Festival of the Desert which looms over Dirtmusic's second album BKO, which is named after the acronym used to refer to Bamako airport in Mali, the country in which the Festival of the [...]

Hey guys. No locals today. I just couldn't make it work. Of course, you can always send me some suggestions , if you have some. All I have to do is be able to vaguely relate it to someone I know personally and it counts, in my book. I hope instead you will accept this awesome and decidedly NOT LOCAL track from this band of nomadic Tuareg band called Tinariwen. They make music that is mystical, beautiful and should add some spice to your weekend. [...]
The Very Best are a deliciously odd trio. The band formed more than four years ago, after DJ Gods Johan Karlberg and Etienne Tron of Radioclit met Esau Mwamwaya after buying a bike at Mwamwaya's used furniture/junk store in East London. In 2008, the group released a mixtape, Esau Mwamwaya and Radioclit are the Very [...]
In a little more than a month (see countdown widget below), the World Cup (a.k.a the greatest sporting event in the world) will commence. Having personally attended a match (Ireland vs. Italy at Giants Stadium on June 18, 1994), I can attest that there is nothing that comes close to experiencing the World Cup live. The tournament, which every four years brings together national football, er, soccer teams from countries around the globe, will be held in South Africa this year. To kick things off (pun intended), a suitably Afro-centric concert is being held [...]
You know how they say spring is the time when a young man's fancy turns to love? Well, spring can go take a hike (and take winter with you). If you live in New York City, your favorite season should be summer. You know, because of the sheer amount of summer shows (many of which are free!) that are at your disposal! Since we last talked, the 2010 lineups for two of the city's biggest summer concert series, SummerStage/Rumsey Playfield and Celebrate Brooklyn (the same concerts with which we told you about last week ) [...]
The lineup for Central Park's annual SummerStage series is beginning to reveal itself, and if Pavement's four sold-out September shows don't make the 25th anniversary special enough, there is plenty more going on at New York City's Rumsey Playfield in the coming months. Bumpershine.com has discovered various confirmed and unconfirmed acts playing this summer, and beyond what we already knew, there are some gems. While not part of the SummerStage series, some noteworthy Rumsey Playfield shows coming up include the CareFusion Jazz Festival, a Meshell Ndegeocello performance at the New York LGBT Pride [...]

Hands From: Los Angeles United States Hands, an ambitious, ambient experimental duo from Los Angeles are the musical equivalent of the Keep Calm & Carry On posters that have been doing the rounds in the UK since the collapse of the world financial system in 2008. Their waves of soothing, multi-layered electronics wash over you leaving you feeling [...]

Monday Afternoon Quick Fix runs every Monday afternoon to showcase the best of Chicago music news, views and stories from around the interwebs and blogosphere that we might have missed. • Gapers Block posted an excellent piece on West African, desert-guitar group Tinariwen . • WindyCityRock.net reviews the latest EP from Soft Speaker . • Sun-Times' Jim DeRo writes that the Billy Joel/Elton John concert at Wrigley this summer may have been cancelled because no such tour was [...]
Like meeting a friend in a foreign country, Tinariwen's performance felt familiar, yet unusual. It was a feeling that stemmed from a juxtaposition of foreign and domestic. The Northern Malian group performed at The Palace of Fine Arts in conjunction with SF Jazz Festival. The sellout crowd shouted and clapped as Tinariwen took the stage. The six band members (the band's lineup changes frequently) were dressed traditionally, wearing sandals, long robes and turbans. In front of a bare back... Read more at www.SFCritic.com
Chris Gergley One of my very favourite developments in the Toronto music scene over the past few years has been the rise of the in-store performance - whereas not so long ago there were maybe just a handful a year, they're now occurring all the time at most of the independent record stores in the city and featuring bigger and bigger acts. Not only is it giving fans the opportunity to see artists in an intimate setting, it's also often the only chance for underagers to see them live. And while I've often bemoaned the lack of a [...]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =1ij7nm7UYpU Consider Tinariwen an amalgam of The Grateful Dead, The Wu-Tang Clan, and the sublime frequencies of the Sublime Frequencies comp of 1970's Algerian Rai underground . Crossroads dirges. Six weary travelers singing traditional arrangements turned electric, a nomad blues. Hypnotic guitars, ragged laments, and a subtle ferocity flashing its fangs at all the right moments. Tapes baked in the blistering Sahara sun passed from palm to palm - no illegal downloading among the Tuaregs - just a covalent communion to the holy groove and rebellious words aimed at the oppressive [...]
