In celebration of the fact that I just managed to book the Budos Band for my new party at Union Pool in Williamsburg on March 14th and in anticipation of an end to this chilly NYC winter, I put together an extra hot and sunny new mix of records from Ghana and Nigeria!Special thanx go out to Jonas for hosting the mp3!That Hygrades track is one of the sickest records I got in a while and check out the break on "disco in danger"...

    You're welcome, everybody, hope you enjoy it. Didn't really know if the last track is "too much" in a good way or "too much" in a bad way... definitely a love song to remember.

    crazypoprock, I'd only heard about this when it after the fact. Should have checked the anouncments here. $mall??hange's an old buddy of mine, damn, I wish I wouldn't have missed this. How's that venue?

    Thanks Frank, for being so open with your music and knowledge, as always.

    That Strangers track, 2 to make a pr, is unreal. Is it Nigerian... sounds EMI related.
