Global A Go-Go presents:
April is usually one of the big months for new releases in the music world (September and October are the others). For a variety of reasons (WRIR’s Spring 2019 Fund Drive, personal matters), I haven’t had much opportunity to feature new music this month.
So I’ve got some catching up to do, and that’s the focus of this week’s program. The whole first hour is dedicated to new releases and new reissues in the Afro-funk and Latin bags, including the great new Carnaval single from two of my favorites Colombian bands, Bomba Estereo and Systema Solar (pictured above).
The second hour has more new sounds from Mali and Niger, a look at the Balkan-Caribbean connection, and we finish up with some particularly crazed Balkan vocalists. Should be fun.
