The Asthmatix – Go Team Go
Ever wondered what you’d get if you blended Jewish melodies, hip hop beats, and quirky vocal samples? Neither did I until I came across The Asthmatix who have done just that on this incredibly eclectic and fun debut release, create a totally fresh break beat hip hop klezmer sound.

‘Latke’

Independent Track Of The Week
‘No More Waiting’ by Coptic Soldier and Miriam Waks featuring Phatchance. Aussie hip hop with a soul funk edge.
Dan Mangan – Oh Fortune
The 3rd album from the Canadian, and he continues with the sound he knows best. Colourful folk with hints of Indie.

And today’s final track on The New Thing was a slice of cool minimal electronica ambstep from Synkro & Indigo called ‘Guidance’.

Have a very Merry Christmas!!
