Hot in Dar!


Can't wait to hear this new release from Buda Musique. In the meantime I've been playing Quantic's latest excursion into tropical sounds - Tradition in Transition - alongside the new Black Rio 2 compilation and Stern's magnificent Keletigui Et Ses Tambourine. Very soon I will have a whole lot more news with some exciting developments for African jazz fans.
