Thorens and Grado, etc.
Musical argonauts need to keep their eyes and ears peeled for the ummmmm unexpected. Today’s prime candidate: Paul Dateh’s Hip Hop Violin in duet with Inka One (via Doc Searls, who got it from Steve Woolf, who is probably hipper than you or … ). Turntablism isn’t a genre that I’ve paid much attention to, but that’s pretty much due to my limitations and blindspots.

Today’s musical excesses
I’ve been rolling like a spaniel in dead fish in PLAYLISTS and REAL AUDIO ARCHIVES from WFMU’s Transpacific Sound Paradise: Popular and unpopular music from around the world with Rob Weisburg
…and I hardly know where to begin with YouTube stuff I’ve run into in the last day, but try these:
Annabouboula on Night Music (and catch the instrument at 2:05)
