Podcast: Alternative Hip-Hop Lounge

A very cool podcast by Alpha Pup Records, Est. 2004 has just found its way onto my subscription list. Very great grooves, good hip hop, and by far not that general commercial crap.

Review: Ⅿ.I.A. – Arular

Product Image: M.I.A. - Arular
My rating: 3 out of 5

The title above is a very good description of MIA’s music by Matthew Cooke. Ⅰ had heard about Ⅿ.I.A. first at a special show of austria’s FM4 radio station about this year’s Sonar Festival (Link to pics at flickr) in Barcelona, Spain; where she was one of the hyped newcomer acts or so. And she is – hyped but not overhyped. Her stuff is cool, new, fresh and refreshing. But then Ⅰ am not so much in favor of the whole album… it hasn’t grown on me yet. But nevertheless: if you ever considered doing something good for your musical horizon, if you like tribal folk ‚lectro hip hop. Check her out.
