Medicine Show No. 3: Beat Konducta in Africa

Madlib

A 43-track collage of dusty African psych-rock, funk, and soul samples reimagined through a gritty, lo-fi hip-hop lens. Hypnotic, rhythmic, and deeply textured.

Find on Amazon

It's like a psychedelic road trip through a 1970s African record store in a dusty basement.

A gritty, polyrhythmic exploration of heritage through the lens of a dusty sampler.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The heavy fuzz-drenched guitar riff on Mandingo Swing that feels like it was unearthed from a 1970s Zambian basement.
The transition into African Voodoo Queen where cinematic dialogue dissolves into a thick, hypnotic bassline.
The way the percussion on Jungle Soundz, Part 1 layers organic hand drums over a rigid, neck-snapping hip-hop break.
