Trans-Mara Express flew the flag for Lebanon and Kenya not too long ago; today Mikael Seifu spoils us with gifts from neighbouring Ethiopia. And oh, what a present it is. Returning to the familiar grounds of Washington D.C. label 1432 R - the imprint that released his debut Yarada Lij EP last year - comes Seifu's next project, The Lost Drum Beat.<br /><br />His penchant for melding electronic hardware and traditional Ethiopian sounds is as novel as ever here. The title track manoeuvres with all the mystifying, dubstep/garage jerks of a Burial number, yet this is slightly brighter and more bouncy territory. Nocturnal by nature, yet less forlorn and blessed with ghostly percussive intonations.<br /><br />Catch it on its June 19th release date.<br />→ FOLLOW US HERE FOR MORE FUN:<br />Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/boilerroom.tv<br />Twitter: https://twitter.com/boilerroomtv<br />Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/platform
