The headline act at our upcoming Big Chill House party comes in the form of the scorching Yaaba Funk.
Combining fat analogue basslines, blazing horns and gritty rock guitars this floor-filling ten piece play a red hot mix of Ghanian hi-life, afrobeat and low down dirty funk. Pure fire. Here’s them [...]

Deerhoof, Juana Molina, Konono N°1 and Kasai Allstars sound like a fortuitous run on an iPod shuffle. The fact that all four acts are playing at the Barbican tomorrow has got me hyper hyped! And the fact that they’ve formed voltron-style into a 19 member super-group has me chewing off [...]
