‘Speak With Ghosts’ by Anakronic Electro Orkestra (now out on CD)
One of the late releases digitally in 2010… the fantastic Anakronic Electro Orkestra now has their full-length Speak With Ghosts out on CD. It comes with three extra connecting snippets (“ghosts”) and is going to make it on my Best of CDs in 2011. Sure, it made it on the list in 2010, but it’s sooooo good, I’ll break / make my own rules. :)

Read what I wrote last December below… or just take my word for it, and buy this album. You won’t regret it! Per the band, it’s also destined for a vinyl release later in 2011.
‘Speak With Ghosts’ by Anakronic Electro Orkestra
One of my favorite EPs of 2009 was Anakronic Electro Orkestra‘s The Yiddish Part. My only complaint with the EP? It was too short. Well, in mid-November 2010, unbeknown to me at the time, they came out with their debut full-length Speak With Ghosts. It’s digital only at this stage, with Amazon’s mp3 Download department being the best choice (which I found out after I bought it on iTunes). Anyway, well worth the coin spent!
AEO hail from Toulouse, France, and crank out a mighty fine mixture of drum & bass mixed with Eastern European-fused klezmer. Their new album is a 40+ minute shuffle through a modern klezmer forest – including one song featuring David Krakaeur (another favorite musician of mine). I think AEO is also great for fans of Beats Antique and Balkan Beat Box.
I just downloaded Speak With Ghosts, and it’s definitely vying for a favorite in 2010. See, this is why it’s so hard to put these lists out. December 26th, and I have a new one pop on to the list. :)
