Eclectic Mainline 22nd August 2012

The Jesse Boykins III & MeLo-X album, ‘Zulu Guru’, is released in the autumn. The single that precedes the album, “The Perfect Blues” is coupled with this gem, “Black Orpheus”:

Jesse Boykins III & MeLo-X – ‘Black Orpheus’ (produced by Afta-1) by Ninja Tune

You can download “Black Orpheus” for free from ninjatune.net/zuluguru.  “Black Orpheus” is one of the tunes I played in Eclectic Mainline on BCB tonight. Another, the opening tune in the show, was this gorgeous acapella piece by The Cornshed Sisters, taken from their ‘Tell Tales‘ album:
