@ExitosGnosis you are one of the VERY FEW people who have shown appreciation to these types of arrangements from a theoretic view...i'm particularly taken by the fierce exotic scales that all Ethiopian music seem to possess...

thanks for the upload! this is SO funky! he accomplishes the discordant arrangements through the really clever distribution of instruments, particularly how he hides those gnarly intervals in the low vibes and piano/organ. friggin brillyint!

@tigcircus - Yes, Ethiopian jazz needs some new blood but the old guys are still very much alive. Mulatu and Mamoud are very much alive. As far as sophistication, look back at the jazz of Miles Davis, Bill Evans and John Coltrane and you will see much sophistication as opposed to the more simplified smooth jazz of today which serves to relax more than sweep you away in complexity,
