imran_mirza Fantastic jazz-meets-afrobeat project that is a real joy! Favorite track: New Frontiers.

Chanko Nabe Records Una de nuestras primeras influencias del Afrobeat mundial fue esta maravillosa banda. Muy difícil elegir un solo track favorito de este particular disco, pero por su línea de bajo y energía global creo que va: Favorite track: Future Ancestors.

A Becker This whole album is filled with a wonderful energetic quality while also being unobtrusive in a way that makes it easy to focus on work or reading.
The standout track for me is March of the Idiots. Future Ancestors is excellent as well.
The whole thing inspires me to think of it as the soundtrack to some movie from the 1970s. Favorite track: March Of The Idiots.

Ariya Astrobeat Arkestraare back with their second album 'Towards Other Worlds'. The UK- based 9 piece have built on the success of their debut album, described byBBC Radio 2's Jamie Cullums one of his 'sounds and albums of 2010'.Afrobeat'sinimitable rhythm and language is evident and the bandalso owes part of their sound to thespace jazzpioneers of the 70s and thefree jazztrailblazers of the 60s. Towards Other Worlds explores this diverse blueprint, taking in drivingafro-funk, spiritual jazz,and Mulatu-esque Ethio-jazz.Built around a quote of the Sun-Ra film 'Space Is The Place' the album is split into two halves - the first represents Earth and it's 'sounds of guns, anger, frustration' whilst the second is couched in the cosmos, where 'the vibrations are different', leading to a more progressive, peaceful sound.
