This sounds so familiar. Or perhaps just interesting. I suspect a little bit of both. |
They're kind of famous, I think. A Brasillian lady I work with tells me they're well-known in their homeland for their political/community awareness work, too.
I'll try to remember to put them on the next mixtape. |

Very prolific too!

I know. Their discography is huge. I have a compilation cd that isn't listed there, too.
|
There is enough interest in this thread for me to make an entirely 'world' tape next time. This is goodness.

I've been thinking of doing this too. That track on your Mix Tape, the Tibetan boy and father. Incredible. I've been looking for an mp3 of this. |

It's on sublime frequencies, 'Music of Lhasa'. It goes downhill after that track, but it's still very good. |
Plenty of joy to be found on this site(download section):

Haha. Porkie was on about Mogollar a while ago in a thread about Plastic people of the Universe. Excellent band.

You're very welcome for those three tracks. Go to your local record store and buy any Ethiopiques volume! Money very well spent, and quite a variety and range of music from one of Africa's most interesting cultures. Also I've got some Algeria related stuff to upload tomorrow. There is a wealth of Algerian music to seek out. On a related note, Algerian hip hop anyone? I've read about Algerian hip hop that exsists, but I've never heard anything. I assume any artists would be based in France... If anyone has that to offer, by all means, let us hear it. |
Here's an enka album by Keiko Fuji: http://www.sendspace.com/file/7u1ewz
I've recently taken an interest in this genre for some reason. |

I think the two most well-known algerian hip-hop groups are Intik and MBS... out of the two, I have only heard Intik, and I might be able to upload some stuff later today... both were formed in Algeria, and at least originally based in Algeria, but i believe Intik or at least some members of Intik relocated to France (they had some connections with french hip-hop band IAM, I believe)... but there are still apparently many, many other bands from different parts of Algeria, various cities... (and of course there are some french hip-hop bands consisting of members of Algerian background, but that is a bit different) |
wow, this thread is great... thanks everyone!
(unfortunately i've got nothing to share at this moment) |

Bush Taxi Mali is the one I've heard from SF. I need to buy some of these.
The Radio Pyongyang one looks like it'd be a good one. North Korean funk?! No way... |
