This album is definitely getting HEAVY rotation on my ipod!! I've been a Waldeck head for a while now but this album right herrrre kids is the truth...I can see myself listening to this for years from now...automatic classic!

Orchestra Baobab: Made in Dakar

Today, Orchestra Baobab drops their first studio album since 2002's Specialist In All Styles, which was great! A couple of the joints have been circulating the online waves for a bit now but really happy this is out...Especially happy to finally have Nijaay, one of my favorite joints!! Ever since I came across their first release and then The Pirates Choice I have been hooked like crack even though I can't understand one word of it....

Portishead: Third

due to be released on April 29, 2008
The long awaited Third album from Portishead is finally coming...back in August 2006 they posted two tracks on their myspace page...the world has been impatiently waiting, I mean it's been almost ten years!! There have been numerous solo projects but I'm really looking forward to this...

update after the release: This album is really out there...I love the experimentation...I have to say the song, Machine Gun really makes me want to get up and be violent...lol...
