We’re huge fans of Ethiopian musician Mulatu Astatke here at the Quietus – have a read of John Doran’s extensive interview that we published back in the spring of 2009.
2010 looks set to be an even bigger year for Mr Astatke, with new album Mulatu Steps Ahead out on March 29th, and Nas and Damien Marley sampling his track ‘Yegelle Tezeta’ on their single ‘As We Enter’. Now, check the Soundclouds below for a free go on ‘Yegelle Tezeta’ plus ‘Green Africa’, an exclusive extract from the new album.
