Wilaya Blues (Aziza Brahim) 5:38

Invasores (Ljadra Mint Mabroum - Aziza Brahim) 4:56

from  Mabruk 2012

...Now she's working with her new group, Gulili Mankoo (a mix of Western Sahara music, rythms from Senegal and Blues music) in her new forthcoming record.

Often referred to as the Devil’s Violinist, the Paganini of Voivodina, or a child prodigy, once he is on stage with an instrument – be it the violin or the zither – Lajkó is capable of doing anything, of guarding his audience to a world that opens up only to those born with a special talent. Félix Lajkó handles music rather impulsively. There is no need to define the style or genre of his music, since it is exactly about the opposite: transgressing styles, accepting the inexplicable.

from Mező / Field 2013

”There are natural talents of music: in their hands everything turns into music - the choice of instrument does not make any difference.”

”Félix Lajkó (in Hungarian name-order Lajkó Félix) is not only an elusive master of traditional fiddle improvisation, but he is a brilliant player of the Hungarian fretted zither as well. ” fROOTS, November 1, 2013

The WMCE (World Music Charts Europe) has published its top 150 album of 2013 list. Out of 913 nominated records the new zither album of Félix Lajkó – was the leader both in August and September – called ’Field’ has ended up at the prominent 5th place!

Bidjegui 3:20

Tiger Run 4:20

Medjok 5_31

from Tiger Run 2014

Sally Nyolo's second Riverboat Records album is inspired by the moment before a tiger attacks - hushed in the long grass, senses alert, eyes wide, ears pricked, quiet purr, humming low. The title track 'Tiger Run' simmers with a musical mood akin to this idea: listen out for gently warping guitars, feather-light percussion and Sally's demure husky vocal. The tiger cat acts as a totem throughout Tiger Run, flexing its claws as the main source of inspiration. In conversation Sally Nyolo credits the animal for guiding her to compose music that strives toward a sense of power infused with lightness and agility... 

Sally Nyolo's Tiger Run is poised to pounce and sink its slinking rhythms deep into your skin. Listen as the tiger's daughter dances close, marking her musical territory, and singing out at her creative zenith.

Rhode Island indies who inject lustrous pop with doses of atmosphere and experimentalism. 
Roz and the Rice Cakes
Slow Motion 2:22
Open Eyes 3:02
from Devotion
Led by Roz Raskin, a nimble vocalist who counts Gwen Stefani among her biggest influences (and she sounds a little like her, too), Rhode Island's Roz and the Rice Cakes released a debut in 2014 that introduced an intricate yet catchy experimental indie pop. Three years later, they strengthen those same qualities on their more vivid follow-up, Devotion. A track like "Open Eyes" starts with a muscular vocal melody over an exposed rhythm section that quickly establishes irregular time signatures before adding melodic, syncopated guitar. Despite lengthy instrumental passages, amorphous forms, and shifting rhythms, it lands like an uptempo dance-pop tune due to the band's ability to keep the big picture simple and accommodate tapping feet... Roz and the Rice Cakes apart from many pop, electronic, and indie rock acts -- as they juggle elements of all three.

London-based producer, songwriter, and DJ who alternates between house music, downtempo, and dubstep (as Nocturnal Sunshine). 
Maya Jane Coles
Don't Leave 5:17
Waves & Whirlwinds 3:33
from Waves & Whirlwinds
Waves & Whirlwinds is a brief, EP-length follow-up to Maya Jane Coles' expansive double-album Take Flight, offering a similar blend of tech-house rhythms and pop instincts. Coles excels at producing sensuous dance tracks which float and bubble yet have a steady drive to them. "Don't Leave" has cloudy, pitch-shifted vocal fragments and loose guitars which levitate over a chunky breakbeat, punctuated by samples commanding the listener to "get yo hands up!"... Her vocals, again, are looped murmurings and intonations rather than coherent thoughts, expressing dark, vulnerable feelings rather than spelling them out.

Quirky, melodic rockers from Philadelphia who mix retro '60s psychedelia with a freewheeling indie aesthetic. 
Dr. Dog
Golden Hind 3:12
Swampedelic Pop 3:42
from The Psychedelic Swamp
Back in 2001, The Psychedelic Swamp seemed an appropriate name for the debut cassette from psychedelic pranksters Dr. Dog, but some 15 years later the title seems even more fitting given that the band decided to revisit, rework, and re-jigger the entirety of the album to create a brand-new album for 2016. It's not quite right to say Dr. Dog cover themselves here. Rather, they reconnect with the ideas originally essayed in 2001 and approach those ideas with the skill and panache they've developed in the ensuing 15 years. Because Dr. Dog rely on texture and feel as much as they do songs, this isn't a bad idea at all: they're able to execute ideas they were only able to hint at when they were a young band...

Paris-based Cuban duo of twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Dia who play an electro-tinged variety of Afro-Cuban and soul-influenced music. 
Ibeyi
Deathless feat. Kamasi Washington (Lisa Kainde Diaz) 3:11
Transmission/Michaelion feat. Meshell Ndegeocello, (Maya Dagnino / Lisa Kainde Diaz / Claudia Rankine / Richard Russell) 6:30
from Ash
Ibeyi's stellar self-titled debut album was a flashpoint that steeped itself in brittle electro-drenched R&B and roots Yoruban percussion and openly engaged the saints of Santeria: its introduction was an invocation to Elegua (the gatekeeper between worlds) and the goddess of wind and storms in "Oya." On the French/Cuban sibling duo's sophomore effort, Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz address matters more corporeal and rooted in lived experience. The spiritual here is an inspirational tool for understanding and confronting suffering and injustice. Ash is an album directly affected by the tension of the times. Its songs address female empowerment, racial injustice, loneliness, and love in a brittle yet warm mix less frenetic than its predecessor. Singing again in mixed French, English, and Yoruba...

Detroit rockers who became surprise British hitmakers with a blend of garage rock, post-punk, and disco. Mixing garage rock, disco, punk, new wave, and metal into cleverly dumb, in-your-face songs celebrating hedonism in multiple forms, Electric Six emerged from the same late-'90s/early-2000s Detroit garage-punk scene that produced the White Stripes and the Dirtbombs. 
Electric Six
Chicken Wine 2:25
Sex With Somebody 3:29
Dark Politics 3:59
from How Dare You 2017
Once upon a time -- back in the '60s and '70s, you know, the Bronze Age -- it was pretty much a given that a working rock band put out an album every year, toured behind it, and then rolled back into the studio to repeat the cycle. That time line has all but vanished in the 21st century, but the men of Electric Six have the sort of work ethic that harks back to those halcyon days. Since 2005, Electric Six have dropped at least one album every year, sometimes more, and 2017 has proven to be no exception, as How Dare You was delivered unto their fans in October of that year. Along with being industrious, the E6 are also reliable; while they haven't delivered a lunatic masterpiece like Switzerland or I Shall Exterminate Everything Around Me That Restricts Me from Being the Master in a while, they haven't been tossing off duds, either, and How Dare You is a testimony that this band's devotion to its own strange creation is not a sometime thing. Still dealing in hard rock bombast, dance-rock pomp, and a wisenheimer's worldview, How Dare You is Electric Six doing what they do best, with Dick Valentine's gloriously mannered vocals expounding on his myriad obsessions as the guitars, keys, and drums pop behind him like an exceptionally long string of firecrackers...

Introspective and occasionally epic indie pop from this Brisbane-based quintet led by singer/songwriter Thomas Calder. Australian indie rock quintet the Trouble with Templeton (named after an episode of The Twilight Zone) began in 2011 as the recording project of then 20-year-old Brisbane-based singer/songwriter Thomas Calder.
The Trouble with Templeton
Bad Mistake 3:05
Double Life 5:34
from Someday, Buddy 2016
Built around the talents of singer and songwriter Thomas Calder, the Trouble with Templeton self-released what was essentially a solo album before making their Bella Union debut as a five-piece with 2014's Rookie. The bricolage of indie folk, synthier pop, and more direct alt-rock led to touring opportunities with the likes of Of Monsters and Men and Father John Misty. Playing more to their strengths, however, the follow-up sees the group, which slimmed down to a trio, simplify their approach. The more focused Someday, Buddy re-places the emphasis on songwriting. It takes on an almost lo-fi character with '90s Pavement-type ambling guitars and intimate lyrics as the album oscillates between hushed rumination and lyric-driven outbursts...

Scuzzy rock & roll-inspired post punk with a socialist edge from south London recalling the likes of the Fall, Butthole Surfers, and the Birthday Party. 
Fat White Family 
Whitest Boy on the Beach 4:53
We Must Learn to Rise 7:10
from Songs For Our Mothers 2016
On their first album, Fat White Family sounded like they could be a group of bitter, homeless alcoholics who took to making music on battered gear found in a house where they were squatting. Three years later, the group made something of a creative shift; on 2016's Songs for Our Mothers, those winos have purchased a cheap but reliable rhythm machine and started dabbling in club music...
