London-based Nigerian songwriter and producer Olugbenga (Bass player of Metronomy) has put out a 34-minute “Olu’s Omniverse #2: We Don’ Catch Am” mixtape, a collection of tracks from a familiar roster featuring South Africa’s Okmalumkoolkat, DJ Spoko, and Christian Tiger School, Nigerian songstress Temi Dollface, Vieux Farka Touré, Dotorado Pro, and Seye, as well as a brand new remix of UK folk singer Laura Marling.
This month’s mixtape is Pure Internet. My first son was born almost two months ago and I haven’t really left the house since then. There have been walks around the park and a few shows with Metronomy, but certainly no DJing. I am still well acquainted with being awake when most respectable people are asleep, but I haven’t seen the inside of a club in months. It’s been a fun break, actually. I’ve even found the odd spare moment to finish a couple of remixes and edits. I’ve also spent hours (and hours!) listening to tunes from all over the world, panning for gold. – Olugbenga
