Today's #Ska album rec is:

Pannonia Allstars Ska Orchestra + Victor Rice - Heritage (On Bartók's Path) (2023)

This Hungarian band mixes #TradSka with some traditional Hungarian #Folk. And it makes for a really cool sound! And even if you aren't sold on that it's just a really solid Trad and instrumental album, even a bit of #SkaJazz sneaking in there.

Likewise, Eastern Standard Time have a new #Ska album out that nearly slipped past me:

Eastern Standard Time - Clockwork

Lots of Soul, R&B, and Motown energy throughout this #TradSka and #SkaJazz album. And it's really great! This is well worth a listen. Especially if you're going to #Supernova, where they'll be playing 4(!) sets. Backing legends like Stranger Cole and Sister Nancy.

#Ska album rec for the day has been out for a couple weeks, but only just made its way to Spotify:

The Officinalis - BACK TO SORRENTO

It's instrumental #TradSka and #SkaJazz from Italy, that I'm finding incredibly easy to listen to. Downright relaxing even. Well worth checking out if you're into this kind of stuff.

I know everyone will be (rightfully) excited about the new album by The Pomps today. But if you're looking for a #Ska album on the roots-ier side of things, Los Guanábana from Mexico also just put out their self-titled album.

It's instrumental Ska, #SkaJazz, #Reggae, & #Dub, and just as good as their last album that I recommended; "Welcome to Reality" (2022).

Check out: : "Horus"

ICYMI the Japanese #Ska / #SkaJazz band The SKAMOTTS put out a new album yesterday called "ねこだまし".

It's real good, and if you're a fan of this style of music you should definitely check it out!

New #Ska album out today:

A Contratiempo Ska-Jazz - A Contratiempo Ska-Jazz

The name should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. It leans too heavily to the Jazz side of things at times, for me, but overall it sounds fantastic. Jazz just isn't something I know enough about, but it's clearly very well made, by very talented people. Checkout:

"Fire"
