‘’Sweden's Holograms play to the greyer elements of their Scandinavian surroundings on their self-titled debut, but also channel the industrial desolation of the early Factory Records sound and merge it with the experimental energy of 2010s garage punk’’.

Much of the Malian music that has been released on European and American labels in the last few years shares one thing: it is mostly down tempo and reflective. The music of Ben Zabo is a clear break from this quietude. His music is a string of firecrackers igniting on the dance floor of a midnight party. It is a music that has been perfected in the loud, sweaty, open-air clubs that line the outskirts of Bamako, places where the competition to get heard is fierce, and the chances of moving upward and outward are next to none. With the release of Ben Zabo’s self-titled album an older tradition is renewed and an uncharted path begins. Mali’s Afro-beat past is fused with the pulse of Bamako in the new millennium and the rarely heard sounds from the Bo musical culture. Chris Eckman

Canada’s hardest working super-group, The Souljazz Orchestra, return at full throttle this September with
Solidarity (Strut Records). On this latest effort, the band further diversifies its sound with Latin and Caribbean influences for a melange of tropical styles that sounds tailor-made for summer. The album showcases a diverse set of influences, buoyed by the many featured vocalists, all of whom are connected to the group through the Canadian music scene, yet hail from a variety of backgrounds, from Senegal to Brazil to Jamaica and beyond. Recorded on vintage gear, the music packs a punch which is often lacking on contemporary recordings.
