Lodger - Odoo
Lodger - Odoo
Sounds like: Gilles Peterson, Optimo
By Dwayne on Aug 17, 2015 | Just last month, we featured a track from up-and-coming Sheffield producer Lodger. Truthfully, "Oliver" was the first track we'd heard of his, but we were really missing out. His only prior release featured an absolutely excellent reworking of Fela ... read more →

Mikael Seifu - The Lost Drum Beat
Mikael Seifu - The Lost Drum Beat
Sounds like: Daphni, Four Tet
By Dwayne on Jun 28, 2015 | As part of their ever-increasing expansion, Boiler Room has started premiering tracks they've dug out from around the world. With Boiler Room's now dotted across the planet, its fair to say they've probably got their ears to the ground.  They're pre... read more →

Chiwoniso - Zvichapera
Chiwoniso - Zvichapera
Sounds like: Aero Manyelo, John Wizards, Iba Diabate
By Dylan Heneck on Jun 14, 2015 | So, I had an entirely different review about 5 minutes ago -- then I did some research. Always do your research. Chiwoniso, who is the late sister of Tendai Maraire (aka Chimurenga Renaissance or 1/2 of Shabazz Palaces), was both an expert mbira pla... read more →

Iba Diabaté - Waba
Sounds like: John Wizards, Aero Manyelo
By Dylan Heneck on May 19, 2015 | Akwaaba Music from Accra, Ghana took this track off of private for me to review (I love them). They have an amazing library of artists from all over Africa. What we have here is a very special, extra easy track from Iba Diabaté, whose name I had to c... read more →

Edoheart - Sosomoneycockplease (Aero Manyelo's Herbal Mix)
Edoheart - Sosomoneycockplease (Aero Manyelo's Herbal Mix)
Sounds like: Jumping Back Slash, Tchobari, Spoek Mathambo
By Dylan Heneck on May 12, 2015 | Despite having the weirdest name for a track ever, this remix by Aero Manyelo of "Sosomoneycockplease" is a well-rounded African house track that you have to hear. To be honest, you're going to struggle to find a track called "Sosomoneycockplease" b... read more →

Okmalumkoolkat - Ijusi (Jumping Back Slash Gqom Dub)
Sounds like: Maramza, Spoek Mathambo, Petite Noir
By Dylan Heneck on May 7, 2015 | Well goddamn, what do we have here?! Affine Records have made use of the King of Gqom, Jumping Back Slash, to signal the forthcoming release of a very, very special remix EP: recode H0. Okmalumkoolkat, having released his debut Holy Oxygen EP off th... read more →

O'Flynn - Desmond's Empire
O'Flynn - Desmond's Empire
Sounds like: Romare, Four Tet
By Dwayne on Apr 3, 2015 | "Desmond's Empire" is the first track we've heard from O'Flynn, but the British producer has already cultivated a sound that's entirely his own. He layers African vocals over an accordion and some more familiar sounding percussion to create a unique... read more →

Lea Lignanzi - Dede Priscilla (Bagheera Edit)
Sounds like: Tchobari, John Wizards, Jumping Back Slash
By Dylan Heneck on Feb 6, 2015 | I'm definitely feeling the African beats that have been gracing my inbox. This special edit of Lea Lignanzi comes as a free gift from London-based Bagheera. The edit of "Dede Priscilla" comes to us as a celebration of Bagheera's 300th follower, whic... read more →
