But it’s refreshing to see the Chicago powerhouse making room for the music you find […]

Fascinating Afropop special

JB — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 07:43:01 +0000

Read Wayne Marshall’s interview here. Wayne is the Wayne & Wax guy. If you don’t know his blog, well, since you’re here you’d probably dig his site, an always insightful blog on new music trends with a foot – or two – in cross-Atlantic syncopated beats.
