This week we'll be exploring mostly recent releases from the past few months of 2020 featuring some reggae reissues from the "Pressure Drop" label quite a few drops from the new "Makaya McCraven" album on "International Anthem".
We'll also hear new releases from Osunlade's "Yoruba Records" imprint, more shots from the "Future Shock" series "on "Names You Can Trust". Cabo Verdian vibes from the latest "Analog Africa" reissue along with a wide variety of trippy, soulful, jazzy and funky grooves you've come to expect from "Friday Drive" on this somewhat downtempo but somewhat intense tour.
Happy listening!
