Bonobo - Not just a horny primate

Ninja Tune DJ Bonobo's latest album is a solid trip-hop effort. Two of the tracks are absolutely fantastic: All In Forms and Animals. Even if you don't think this is your type of music, give the songs a listen at least once all the way through. Bonobo builds a mood and uses dynamic beat changes and instrumentation to pack an emotional punch. In particular, these songs remind me of Cinematic Orchestra.

Check 'em out. If you like these two, his best all-time track is Between the Lines (featuring Bajka). Freakin' jazz flute man. Always a plus.

As always, if you like the songs, pay the man, Shirley.

Bibi Tanga & The Selenites

Bibi Tanga & The Selenites have a signature sound, combining afro-pop, funk and trip-hop dance grooves. Tanga's vocals moan and pump over the polyrhythmic beats and the chorus of female singers.

They only have an EP out now, but I'll definitely be looking out for the full length coming out soon.

Recommended if you like: Michael Franti and Spearhead, Fela/Femi Kuti, Anjelique Kidjo, Les Nubians, etc.
