Instead of not doing a blog this week we decided to list a bunch of good songs that released. I did not find anything great just good. Maybe this should be the start of an additional playlist? What do you think?

Tribal Seeds "Ancient Blood"
Tribal Seeds is finally fully back and engaged. Their new album is "Ancient Blood." Their full sound is there with a few surprises. The part we like the most is that for every guest artist their sound adapts more to the style of each artist and what they are known for doing. Twinkle Brothers, Romain Virgo, Kabaka Pryamid, Hempress Sativa (the only one listed in the song) and the return of Hector 'Roots' Lewis & Gonzo who both did lead vocals for a moment. The true standouts in the guest department are The Movement's 'Breathe Easy,' The Elovaters 'Mellow Mood,' and Hollie Cook' guest spot on 'Time To Time,' which has a slight rocksteady vibe, which was totally unexpected. It does not stop there. We love the Kulcha Latino tune . It's the title track with Chiquis Lozoya, El Dusty & Los Daddys and wish there was more. Just when you thought it was over The Seeds give one last little sample of that Latin sabor with Natalia Doco on the final track 'In Love' at the end of the song and the end of the album. Classic Tribal Seeds style musically, too. It is still not over.
The solo tracks like 'Fallen Kings' & ' go down babylon' with 'Down Bad Vibes.' There's even a traditional style ska tune called 'Tokyo.'This is a good solid album to put The Tribe back on the map, exactly where they need to be.
