In case you missed last’s weeks Rhythm Lab Radio, our friend Karen P blessed us with another great segment. She presented her favorite sessions from her live event called Broad Casting.

Broad Casting is about combining the energy of great live music performed in an intimate small club venue, with the infinite possibilities and worldwide reach of the current broadcast landscape.

Working closely with Red Bull Music Academy Radio, Broad Casting approaches it’s line-ups with an energy, optimism and freedom that is truly original; juxtaposing artists and genres in a way that is unparalleled in current UK club culture.

Bringing together artists as diverse as Buraka Som Sistema, Jimi Tenor and Micachu and The Shapes, Broad Casting also inspires and facilitates unique collaborations such as Tony Allen with the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and the now legendary pairing of Mulatu Astatke with The Heliocentrics.

Here is her favorites from Broad Casting:

Little Dragon – ‘Recommendation’ (Live @ Broad Casting, January 2008)
Mulatu & The Heliocentrics feat. Finn Peters, James Arden & Byron Wallen – ‘Yegelle Tezeta’ (Live @ Broad Casting April 2008)
Tony Allen & Hypnotic Brass Ensembel – ‘Sankofa’ and ‘Marcus Garvey’
James Pants with Gary Davis – ‘You’re The One – Stones Throw
