Digital Africa is here people - but you knew that.  DJ Spooky that Subliminal Kid underlines the point with his newest mixtape Ghost World: A Story In Sound.

As Spooky says:

The "Ghost World" mix is all about the multiple rhythms and languages of Africa, but it makes no attempt to give you everything - it's from my record collection. That's why the "story" of the mix is about: polyrhythm, multiplex reality.

He goes in-depth on his blog about digging through his records and offering up rarities we'd certainly never heard of - one example being the "Car Horn Orchestra" of Ghana which has a gathering of many taxi drivers who converge in downtown Accra to make a large symphony of honks from their taxis at the end of the work day or for funerals of drivers.  Expect a mix full of other cool sounds you probably wouldn't anticipate.

Spooky spent time in Africa as a child, traveling through Kenya, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Egypt, and more recently visited Angola where he got turned on to Kuduro, which you'll hear in this mix as well.  More than a mix, this is an art project that accompanied Spooky's installation at the Venice Biennial Africa Pavilion.  Although we can't offer you the installation, we can give you the mix to listen to + download FREE!  Click after the jump for the FULL mega-mix tracklisting.
