Thanks Matt - now I remember what it was that I've been missing. Sumptuous!
Thank you very very much - this really is hypnotic and full of surprises, I´m really enjoying it.
Great selection! As always! And many thanks for the credit! ;)

Veza Mvelase by Abafana Be Mvunge, Phansi Kwaleyo Ntaba by Dixie Kwankwa, Bigger Bredda by Lennie Hibbert, and Thatha Thatha by Prince Paul Morgan are all brilliant! Thanks so much!
Speaking of which: This site shows a scan of a Prince Paul Morgan record simply called "Thatha": http://www.popsike.com/AFRICAN-Township-Mbqanga-Jazz-Prince-Paul-Morgan-M/280438376533.html
Is this the same record as the song in this compilation? If so, is the correct name just "Thatha" (once) rather than "Thatha Thatha" (twice)? Or is "Thatha Thatha" an entirely different song? And either way, do you know when was it released?
Yes this is the same track, probably reissued on 45 with an extra Thatha added! (Thatha means take). As to issue date I have no reference.
Wonderful mix...you're so homed in on a specific african vibe...the one I love too. Drifting to this thing, man, just drifting.
Looking forward to listening to your other mixes.
Double Thanks for tracklists...I've got some record searching and buying to do!
Just discovered your site and this awesome mix. A total journey.
Q: Where can I hunt down some of these tracks?
1) Track 1 -- killer, a slow builder with detail. I couldn't find it on the Les Mains Noires site or anywhere else, discogs, etc. Who is the artist? On a compilation somewhere?
2) Track 5, Dixie Kwanka track. So love it! Appears to be B-side of Kwa Nongoma 78. Out on a compilation? Any hints/tips would be appreciated. (Also, you appear to have a label: how about a Dixie Kwanka compilation? I'd be first in line to buy that.)
You're a killer DJ. Do you ever spin in San Francisco?
Track 1 is actually mislabeled...it is BIGUINE-LÉLÉ avec FRANCISCO, and you can grab it here: http://lesmainsnoires.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/blog-updating.html
Track 5 is from an LP which you can grab from another blog I contribute to here:

As to San Francisco I'd love to play out in that city...but for now I'm in London
Thanks so much, Matt!
It's wonderful to hear such quality music.
Keep dry/warm there in London.

Thanks for all!
Sorry but I don't have time to help you out with 320/Flac versions separated....wish I could, sorry!
Are you listening your beautiful compilation "Matsulidelic Tropical Serenades Vol 1 & 2" in bad quality...
