Halfway through 2025, gotta couple of best of 2025 episodes coming out in the next two weeks, it's been a smoking year for new music, my best of year list candidates are many and they are righteous.This episode sports a pair of cumbia tracks and a pair of darker electronic tracks, hence the name the hard shit and the party shit. A lot of folks will get down with dancefloor banger electro but the more abstract electronic can be very satisfying to listen to as well. We do have some dancefloor banging out of Tunisia so don't sleep on that. As well as a track showcasing some traditional African musical virtuosity out of Mali.Thanks for listening and step to it if you can get 6 tunes that I might not know and can get with; be in touch The Magic Organ is open, wide open.Excerpts from this episode:Frente Cumbiero: Buziraco de PaseoNazar: OpenKasse Mady Diabate & Hawa Kasse Mady Diabate: NIAGALEBAWrecked Lightship: Delinquent SpiritsAmmar 808: Lelliri YammaLa Banda Chuska: Cumbia ChuskaFeel free to follow me on the Insta where I conversate as themagic_organ.
