Last Monday, I spoke to North London based band, OthaSoul in the studio to record a track and interview for The Elektrik Cave.
OthaSoul Spekial will be on Roundhouse Radio on December 27th, as part of a Christmas Series, of poetry and Hip Hop on The Elektrik Cave.
This week the five trakks I’ve had on repeat include:
1. Hiatus Kaiyote – Laputa
The EP comes out on the 2nd December, but you can stream the full EP from the Red Bull Music website.
I’ve had the EP on repeat, and I’ll be playing it as soon as its released to the public, for download.
2. Abigail Glasser – You Already Know (Esperanza Spalding Cover)
Brilliant cover of Esperanza Spalding, Abigail’s voice is smooth and soothing.
3. Alex Burey – Inside World
For some reason it reminded me of the earlier works of Archie Marshall. Very reflective, slightly dark – but very romantic. Love it.
4. The Acid – Animal
The track Animal from the EP Luminal
5. Mayfair Kytes – Seasonal Thaw
Lastly from Australia.
And just for good measure some BAD BAD NOT GOOD, this track has been a favourite of mine this week, also.

Music from Clever Austin (AUS), Hiatus Kaiyote (AUS) and Mark de Clive-Lowe (NZ)
The first ever all girl band of Indian classical music, featuring Kaushiki Chakraborty (vocal), Sawani Talwalkar (tabla), Mahima Upadhyay (pakhawaj), Nandidni Shankar (violin) and Debopriya Chattetjee (flute).
These great women embrace the male dominated history of Indian Classical, whilst also showing the world their talent as women. It’s powerful.
