Give this a go

yeah, Gravity Slips mentioned them in the SST thread i started. that song was pretty intriguing (from the album of same name, right?), i'll give them a go.

btw Urban you wouldn't happen to have any bootlegs from that era? obviously there's a few that i've already seen live but it would be killer to hear someone like Minutemen at the height of their popularity.

I'm looking for some straight-up from Africa, low-tech, beat-on-drum great music. I don't know what to expect, I mean I've never listened to African stuff... but I really want to spin a great African made album.

Also this thread was amazing and I don't know why it stopped.

Fela Kuti. Simple as That.

Thanks for this. I'll definitely be looking into more Afrobeat. I'm lovin' everything about this from the drums to the horns! Really, it's just my cup of tea.

looking for electronic music similar to Bonobo and Death In Vegas

Kid Loco
Kraak and Smaak
Kyoto Jazz Massive
Gus Gus

Basically Jazz, that would be nice. Like I hear a lot of names, but see, the jazz I like is the improvisational conversation with God, high on reefer sort of thing, or the cool mellow jazz. I don't like the upbeat sort of jazz like, Aint Misbehavin, if you know what I mean. Also I don't much care about jazz singers, just musicians.

Also if there was a big torrent with everything from the Elephant 6 collective that would be fantastic.

Groove Metal, I love the two bands of the genre I know, but that's all I know, two bands, so, Groove Metal plz

How's this for you?:
