Stranger , Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Darek Mazzone >>
(Chop Suey) While I was listening to Antibalas' wonderful CD Talkatif a few minutes ago, my coworker, Megan Seling, whose office is next to mine, heard the big and booming Fela Kuti-like beats and asked, "What are you doing, Charles? Having a party?" Indeed, there is no better way to describe the Afro sounds of this 15 piece band from Brooklyn. Even better yet, it could be called carnival music-more social than personal, more outside than inside, more flesh than spirit. If you want to dance and lose yourself entirely in a blazing tropics of horns and conga drums, there is no better place to go than Antibalas.
