heavy heavy monster sound
not really anyone talking about this but i'm feeling some of the deeper afro/tech inspired house sounds this year...seems like its become kind of trendy recently. not mad at that if it continues to spawn solid tracks.
e.g.
mikki afflick - mating call (abicah soul afro tek dub)
mzee - the ancestral calling (dasoul & fabry diglio black mix)
christian hornbostel - zambesi (master tribe mix)
dj floy - malimba (watch the stars original mix)
windimoto - don't let me leave alone (abicahsoul dub)
ezel - thunderbolts (intrumental)
Check out mzee's
