On the show this time, it’s the multi-genre dance music of London’s Ibibio Sound Machine.

Ibibio Sound Machine is one of our favorite bands. We met them when they first played on our live broadcast for International Clash Day from London. They are high energy, multi-cultural, groove focused and danceable. They bring the fashion; they bring the fun. Their latest records are the 'Black Notes' EP and their full-length 'Pull the Rope,' both available on Merge Records.
