..Pharoahe f**kin Monch ain’t a damn thing changed. - Simon Says, 1999
An eight year wait for a second album usually never works in your favour. It can render fans disinterested or makes the artist irrelevant in today’s musical climes (especially in the blink and you’ll miss them world of hip hop). Not Pharoahe Monche [...]

The Guardian’s main section featured an interesting round-up of the Glastonbury festival forays of yet another Damon Albarn-affiliated project, Africa Express. The concept is a marriage of quality African musicians of various genres and willing western artists (with a seeming emphasis on the former), brilliantly brought into life on one of Glasto’s more intimate settings, [...]

It starts with a familiar Múm electronic chime which kicks into life a minute and a half in. Swirling electronics and melodicas greet us and lead us down a path which may lead nowhere. We pause for a breather take in the atmosphere briefly before we are pushed on and greeted in an opening by [...]
Looking for something to do post-Beirut tonight? Your best bet is getting yourself down to Kennedys for some heavy bass from Drop the Lime.
