congotronics.
wow. heard about these guys on npr last year when their first album came out, then again this year when their second hit. they are amazing...they have taken traditional congolese thumb pianos, likembe's i think is what they are called, and hooked them up to homemade amps and mics that they created using magnets and car parts. they take tribal rhythms and mutate it into electronic, hard hitting trance-inducing states. its amazing. BUY IT!
