Hi all

i thought i'd return with some new tunes. Too much in the obituary section these days

Niño de Elche, my pick at WOMEX last October. Turning flamenco on its head, and funny too. Made us wonder what other traditions that take themselves very seriously could do with a shake-up. Fado in pajamas perhaps? And lo and behold the next we had a fado singer in fur mini skirt and top.

Gren Sémé, fabulous group from Reunion Island. Will try and get them to UK...

Interesting and fun. Thanks David. Nubian Twist are (or were) part of the Wormfood setup.
