I got a bunch of hot promo stuff in the inbox this week...
- two tracks from Strut Records deliver the Afro-funk - Peter King from Nigeria 70 (reissued on Mar.31st) and Mulatu Astatke & The Heliocentrics from Inspiration Information Vol.3 (out Apr.14th).
- two cool remixes from My Dear Disco, who bring the dance rock flava to Kanye West and Franz Ferdinand.
- FC Kahuna have remixed Noah & The Whale's indie folk hit and turned it into a bit of dreamy disco.
- WhoMadeWho are a Danish trio who record dance punk for Gomma Records. Discodeine smooths out the rock edges and focuses on disco beats and strings.
- Villains remix Lykke Li and it is fuzzy goodness.
- Amadou & Mariam's new album Welcome To Mali finally hit US stores this week. It is notable that Damon Albarn helped out with production and playing on several tracks. Djuru rolls on a very laid back groove.
- Finally, Bootsy Collins is always funky. What So Never The Dance is a prime slice of old school JB's type funk.
