Freak of The Week

Some records are just baffling. We like those records. A lot.
Time is a relative concept. It doesn't really exist except in our own hallucinated relationships with it. The application of days, digits and crudely effective instruments of time-keeping are just a tool to keep us worker bees down. So if we don't manage weekly updates it's not because we're lazy, it's because we are renegade mavericks playing by our own rules, rejecting the conditioning of this cruel world. Viva la remisness!

Week 4: Afro Rock Festival

Lions roar in the distance, hyenas wail and a cacophony of savannah sounds burble away as Assagai's Kondo begins, soon launching into a driving afro-percussion riff replete with monkey-calls and chirping birds, that loops for a few minutes before abruptly ending. 
With more safari soundscapes than you can shake a stick (or spear) at, and some pretty wild afro/rock n roll crossovers that err on the side of the afro, this compilation is pretty bonkers and a shoe-in for Freak of the Week. 


I can't find any of the tracks on the record available to stream on the internets, so perhaps you should wrap your ears around my latest mix, where Osibisa's Black Ant features...
