Afrobeat from the banks of the mighty Congo River! I like this heavy organic sound.

"Maneo náufrago" by Xabier Díaz and Adufeiras de Salitre. They sing in Galician, a language that's very close to Portuguese. I can almost understand it :)

People in the Groningen area of the Netherlands are raising the provincial flags. Why? The country has finally decided to stop extracting natural gas from the ground. This was a destructive process, causing earthquakes and damaging houses. Money will still be needed to repair everything, but this extraction really had to stop. Hooray!

"Sharaf" by Sahra Halgan.

I like her voice a lot. She sings about the importance of respecting the culture of Somaliland, a young country without universal recognition.

But does it combine well with heavy European rock?

"Basauti" by Korrontzi from Basque Country. The song is an hommage to the women who work on the land. I like the dances also.

The Sermons of Cedric Polberro
#CornishConcertinaBlues

Polberro, whose 7 string ukulele features on this 1935 recording, is a largely unheralded figure from the early days of the Cornish vagrant genus who is primarily remembered for rampant womanizing and his predilection for imbibing industrial grade ethanol

He learned the rudiments of the fretboard from his mother; from his father, nothing beyond the importance of a quick getaway
