Last night's Resonance FM show was the penultimate in this series. I started the show with Ethiopian musician Teshome Meteku and followed that with Fool's Gold, an American group strongly influenced by Ethiopian pop and jazz. I contrasted that with the glistening kitsch sound of De De Mouse, before spinning a trio of tunes jumping from the US to Japan to Greece. First was the Hasidic surf-rock group Meshugga Beach Party, then the breathy Shibuya-kei singer Kahimi Karie, then finally the Greek psych-folk singer Mariangela. I closed the show with a noisy cover of 'Lean On Me', by Underwater Peoples artist Andrew Cedermark.
