Rainbow Arabia

Just when you thought your one year lease was up on The Basta, Rainbow Arabia comes back with a new mini-album to keep your ears busy for the next year. Judging from “Haunted Hall,” Kabukimono promises that Rainbow Arabia is headed in the same direction. I kinda imagine this will be our soundtrack shortly after all the cities are destroyed in the apocalypse, and we’re nomads wandering the deserts of the world. Hopefully we’ll still have stereos and hopefully they won’t genetically engineer dinosaurs with guns for arms. Whatever. “Haunted Hall” makes me want to love “world music.”

Rainbow Arabia – “Haunted Hall”

Look for Kabukimono on July 24th from Manimal Vinyl.

The video for “Omar K” still remains my favorite from 2009.
