Sounds ripped from cassettes & CDs found in immigrant-run mom & pop stores. Deconstructed icons. Field recordings. Sonic mayhem from the far corners of the internet.

Listener comments!
I remember buying a few of these Éthiopiques CDs back then. Mahmoud Ahmed comes to mind. Mustn't go check as my partner is asleep in the bedroom.
How exciting!
Have fun everyone.
Ancient tunes persist. (previous track)
I have this song done by a male Ethiopian vocalist (also on an Ethiopiques comp)
today i came home, and he had puked on my bed. sigh.
and there's the archive. i just need to listen to it while it's still good sound quality, before it's only available as the pop-up player.
I get to catch a bit of this tonight!
Hello, Gary and Ethiofaithful!
if i could i'd go to ethiopia and maybe find out.
