The country is South Africa, a dangerous and challenging country to travel around. The animal is the black rhinoceros, one of the most dangerous and endangered animals in the world. The challenge is for TK, accompanied by his friend Roan Plotz, to find the black rhinoceros in its natural environment within a two-week period. Join TK and Roan as they navigate their way around the beautiful and culturally-fascinating South Africa before confronting the black rhinoceros in open bushland face-to-face.
This latest collection from label Record Kicks is easy on the ear.
If it doesn’t have you dreaming of better days in the snap of a second, there is something wrong with you. This record is an aphrodisiac for the modern workplace.
From "The Young Patter" by the Baker Brothers and "Prophets Bound to Christ" by William Joseph Fowler & the Disciples, DJ Smoove mixes up a storm on record Act II. With the types of sounds that would be at home at a funk club in the funkiest of cities in the funkiest of countries, there is no denying that DJ Smoove is, for want of a better description, a cool cat.
A particularly favourite track of this reviewer is "Rags to Riches" by the Liberators, a fresh afro-funk act hailing from Sydney, Australia. The track is so rich with the sounds of Africa, it is a wonder it was not produced in, ummm, Africa.
The Diplomats of Solid Sound have been on my radar for a while, and so have Lack of Afro. So it does not surprise me that the Lack of Afro remix of the Diplomat’s tune "Give Me One More Chance", is an outright classic.
Similarly to a lot of the new releases from the team at label Record Kicks, this is highly recommended!
