Week 7 of the Cuts of Culture 2 podcasts and we’re soon approaching the final shows. The videos are now finished however we’ve still got some audio treats left for you before we unveil the mix next week – this time we’re going all over the place with 3 tracks which were selected for the mix but didn’t make the final cut for various reasons and 2 scratch beats which were originally planned for use on the DVD menus and selected from the entries sent in during the competition we ran last year for a place on the DVD. Country wise we take in Japan, South Africa, Germany, Belgium and the USA.
African – Hornlife
First up is African, hailing all the way from Cape Town, South Africa. This track is taken from African’s debut album, which he released himself and put out for free on the internet about a year or so ago. The album is available to download from spinscience. A mellow instrumental piece, laid back but still funky. It’s great being able to feature him on the compilation, especially as we don’t know of anyone else on the African continent who’s actively making music on the turntablist front (and if you are and are reading this than get in touch!). You can find out more about African, and also download his second album, on the Retrofuturists website, a collective of like minded artists, whose music we’ll be featuring on future podcasts.
The file is 8mb, .mp3 format, 320kbps.
