Our good friends https://soundcloud.com/khruangbin brought their blend of ambient guitars and 'thai-funk' to the lawn stage on Sunday afternoon this year. It was a magical journey of meandering music that caught pretty much everyone off guard, in a great way, https://soundcloud.com/move-d even went as far as defining it as his favourite moment of the entire festival. We recorded the set and here it is, one of the only recorded live sets you'll find of this very special band.

Gottwood Mix #018 - Khruangbin (Live From Gottwood)

Solid Steel (16th June) This week it's an incredible honour to welcome Afrobeat legend Tony Allen to Solid Steel. His drumming was the driving force behind Fela Kuti’s Africa ’70s band and he also recorded a string of solo albums. His latest release 'A Tribute to Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers' honours another extraordinary drummer and is released on Blue Note. Art Blakey was an idol for Tony Allen and Art Blakey was inspired by trips to West Africa, recording African-inspired jazz LPs in the 50's and 60's. The EP was recorded live with his 8-piece band and is a preview of his forthcoming first album for the classic Blue Note record label. You can hear 2 tracks from the EP in the mix alongside  music from the following artists old and new with words from Tony Allen for each track
