Cosmic Culture: A Journey into AfroFuturism curated by King Britt by King Britt
I was asked a few months ago to curate a show on Afrofuturism and its influences on me and my compositional work. The mix is part of the Noise From The 18th Floor series, presented by the Pew Center for Arts and Heritage: http://www.pcah.us/noise Interview by Tracy Tanenbaum On their site it is presented at certain times, but here you can listen whenever.
An excellent podcast/mix curated by Digable Planets member King Britt which includes quite a few funk acts. His former bandmate, Ishmael "Butterfly" Butler is also no stranger to this subculture, since Shabazz Palaces and his protegees from ThEESatisfaction draw a lot of inspiration from it.
If you do not feel like listening to it, I compiled a list of the artists mentioned (plus a few personal picks) on here
