Strangefruitmusicblog aims to keep readers up to speed on everything musical and we think y’all should know about de Echte Boter: Tropical Edicion party on the 10 of September hosted by Rundfunk. For more info on what to expect click here (info in Dutch).
Why should you know about this?! … Because even though this is not strictly up the Strange Fruit alley it’s kinda dope and we think so because of the very hot tropical latin mix Rundfunk provided us with available for download and tracklist info when you click here.
Hell yeah … after all the electronics and hip hop it’s time for a seriously ill latin mix…I know you are going to enjoy. Before you start downloading make sure you have some dancing shoes and drinks cause whatever mood your in right now get ready to be festive!! An excellent selection of Latin tunes by Jonas Imbery… (source: GOMMA)
if you press the arrow on the right side of the soundcloud music wave (you know…the small one underneath the info button) you can download this straight to your computer!!

Martin Parks are Jacque Hammond & Roman Lee and they have an awesome album called Barefoot that is available on their bandcamp site, http://martinparks.bandcamp.com/album/barefoot and y’all really need to hear this!! They boxed themselves into the hiphop/soul/jazz category and even though that is basically their sound….it does not quite cover it. Whatever their sound is supposed to be I really Loooooooooooove this with a capital L!!
Martin Parks want to be revolutionaries in the music industry. Modeling their music path after two great revolutionaries in history, Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks: Hence the name “Martin Parks”. Martin Parks wishes to make history, again. If they are able to keep up what they did on the Barefoot album, the history thing just might be in their future. Anyways sit tight because this duo is just getting started!

One of the ortist that keeps showing up in our playlist is Ahu (pictured above) . The young Turkish singer, full name Ahu Kelesoglu, has already built up quite a reputation for her collaborations with Flying Lotus, Mr Beatnick and others – it was she, under the name Dolly, who contributed the sublime, dusky vocal to Flying Lotus’s ‘Robertaflack’. At the moment she is focussing on her solo work inspired by house, techno, the golden age of jazz singers, European movie soundtracks and much else besides, we reckon Ahu’s really going to be one to watch in the months and years that lie ahead. This wonderful mixtape for FACT includes music from Brigitte Bardot, Daedalus and Matthew Herbert and two unreleased tracks by Portishead’s Beth Gibbons. Listen, read and enjoy.
