Here's a new one for my ipod!
The boys of Barakas - AKA Lil' John, Riot and Conductor - have been playing in Lisbon clubs since the late 90's and are now touring the world with the release of their new Black Diamond ep. Taking the beats of Angolan Kudro music and melding it with 21st century electronics, they've created a whole new sound - complete with guest vocals from including guest vocals from Petty, M.I.A., Pongolove, Kalaf, Nolay and DJ Znobia. Their electro ghettotech take their favourite South West African music is definitely danceable in my books. Their music videos are pretty rad too.
