When it comes to artwork, you know what they are about 'covers' and however cheeky a meerkat looks in silhouette, the simple truth is that this is 'the' Ostowana release you need as the summer fades away.
Here's something that's awesome in many ways as a full nine tracks expand (most are in the 7-9 minute duraton) which includes a Indo-downtempo dub track 'Matsena' featuring Henrikraabe.
And how can 'Africa Dzonga' sound so sunset sizzling with 'Naturalist' being No. 1 on the David Attenborough Autumn Chart.
Anyone watching the latest series of Alone in South Africa's Great Karoo Desert know will know how difficult it is to survive, but what Arrumar has managed to produce as a debut album that sits on the Afro-House vs. electronic escarpment of his home village of Bushbuckridge/Mapulaneng.
Did I say this is stunning? A fantastic mix of modern and traditional that'll make sure this isn't the last time you'll hear Arrumar.
