If Awesome Tapes from Africa simply collected these cassette covers from Ghana, Kenya, Mali, and beyond, it would be worth a mention for that alone. But the blog actually posts all of the music as downloadable mp3s, creating an invaluable crash course on contemporary sounds from the most musically rich place on the planet. Happy listening.

    I’ve been downloading from that site since discovering it early this summer. There’s some really interesting music to be found there.
