In addition to vinyl, CD, picture disk and digital formats, the new Mdou Moctar album ‘Afrique Victime’ will be available as a special and limited cellphone edition. Hearkening back to the way Moctar’s music originally spread and proliferated across the Sahara via word-of-mouth Bluetooth mobile phone swaps, this collector’s edition of ‘Afrique Victime’ arrives pre-loaded onto a classic Nokia 6120 handset and specially mastered for it. Disclaimer: You can only make calls on this phone in countries that have 2G coverage (not US). The phone does not include a sim card and the headphone port is 2.5mm

’“Wharf Rat,” to me, is the apex of the particular slice of the Dead – of their musical investigations – that is the well that I always, always return to. The meeting point between storytelling and the modal journey… The really long connective tissue that I see to the other musics that are so central to me, it’s in “Wharf Rat. It’s the same part of me that always goes back to Bitches Brew. It lights up that part of my brain. I see them as speaking in the same language.’ DARKSIDE’s Dave Harrington in the latest episode of the Good Ol’ Grateful Deadcast

“He was quite a recent discovery. Eddie Van Halen was someone I found out about when I went for the screening of my film in Portland, Oregon. I’ve got friends there too, and when I played they saw the vibrato I create with my fingers they loved it, and there was someone who said they wanted to introduce me to an artist they thought I would really like. So they played me Eddie Van Halen’s music from when he was younger and I found his solos really incredible, he does the tapping in his way, it was really his own invention and I could tell he’s a real pro. I loved it so I started listening to him and even trying out a few solos – it was a bit tricky for me, but I managed them in my own way.” From Van Halen to Bob Marley & The Wailers to Toumani Diabaté, Mdou Moctar shares his influences for The Quietus’s “Baker’s Dozen” series.
