There is nothing that really jumps out about this song or this album, but I like them. It's an interesting sound on this album. More of the 80's revival, but these guys are interesting because they are tapping into so many different sounds.
Baka Beyond - Sogo (Sogo [2002])

I'm not a big fan of world beat, but this album has a very nice sound. This band's sound is suppose to be a mix of Celtic and African influences. Seems like an odd mix, but it works for a nice light jazzy sound. I really like this song Sogo.
Marmoset - A Prayer for Elaine (Today It's You [1999])

This is the month of minimalist, post punk. Another post punk band reminiscent of the early 80's. The album is quite good, and I really like this song. Happily these guys are still around just came out with a new album.
West Indian Girl - Back to You (4th & Wall [2007])

This is a good song on a fairly good album. Not sure how to describe the sound. It's new wave, it's psychedelic, it's over the top and interesting.
