Hello there
I'm about to jump on a minibus and head into deepest darkest Wales but thought I should get this up first.
Do have a listen to this amazing Camille album- Le Fil.

It's beautiful and very creative. Le Fil means The Thread and a sung note runs right through the album. Most of the sounds, including the percussion, are built up from layers of her voice and her French lyrics fly over the top. Fantastic sound.

1. Toumani Diabate- Toumani
2. Emiliana Torrini- Tuna Fish
3. The Black Keys- Strange Times
