Take me back to Ethiopia

Bought a double CD compilation of Ethiopian music the other day. Whenever I stick it on, I feel the need to exclaim, but I never know whether to exclaim about how good it is, or about how weird it is. Either way, it's definitely good, and definitely weird. Listen to those fucking vocals. Check out those fucking names.

Mahmond Alumed - Era Mela Mela

Mahmoud Ahmed - Aynotché Tèrabu

Muluqèn Mèllèssè - Wètètié Maré

Tèshomé Meteku - Hasabé

Plus, the other day I was complaining about the low standard of the Bjork remixes out there. Here's an exception.

Bjork - Who is It? (Vitalic mix)

[Waddy - Vitalic were behind that weird Polkamatic tune of Thistle's we were listening to in Berlin]

Plus another sweet mix I came across the other day. You'll know the original - this is an improvement.

Blur - Tender (Cornelius remix)

Nice one - was thinking about those Ethiopian tunes the other day. And more Vitalic - there you go...
