Jimi Tenor & Kabu Kabu: 4th Dimension

Great piece of music right here.  Jimi Tenor’s a Finnish musician with a rather extensive discography.  For his 18th [jeez] album, he teams up with German afrobeaters Kabu Kabu to churn out a hell of a release.  Jimi’s got a very distinctive, whiny voice that somehow doesn’t get annoying. Grind! is a particularly killer cut that’s an early favorite for me. The album’s yet another disconcerting instance of German’s droping the funkiest of the funky.  But hey, whatever works.

Check out jimi’s track-by-track breakdown at his site (note that he plays the sax, flute, string machine, synth, noise box, and organ on the album) then download it at amazon.

Guest Spot on Di.FM tomorrow.

I prepared a special guest mix for di.FM’s Exposure NYC radio show that will be airing tomorrow, March 3rd, at 2PM.  It’s an hour of old and new deep funk and mellow soul with some other choice downtempo goodies throw in.  Big shout to DeepSpell for giving me the opportunity.

Tracklist coming tomorrow.
