It seems I shouldn’t have taken @TAFH33’s post seriously. This explains the lack of backlash.

Looks real good to me

Off to a good start, first track isn’t on Spotify US.

Bonus Pumpkins-sounding drums at the start.

give the man the 10 thousand dollars :joy:

You were all spared 23 minutes of Fela Kuti, mainly because the intro is about 13 minutes long

It’s a really cool track though. The government at the time lay siege to his compound and killed his mother, so Fela and his mates went to the government barracks where the president and Vice President were and told them to come out and pick up the coffin they were responsible for. It’s the only time I’ve ever heard Afrobeat sound really sad

The Native Nod song is awesome, never heard of them before.

Well worth having a look at the ML voting page for this round, loads of interesting contextual notes have been added by people.

Damnit. One of the songs sounded interesting/different, only for me to check and then see that it was The Residents…
