Head on over to the excellent What's In My iPod to get this massive 7 cd set of intense, dark, raw, virtuosic and resolutely life-affirming music. It's an unofficial compilation to accompany this feature on Pitchfork by Joe Tangari and - if I understand this right - it was put together and uploaded to BitTorrent sites by the author himself. Now, I don't know too much about Afrobeat, but to me this looks as comprehensive a genre overview as you're ever likely to get. Plus it will have you shuffling those feet and wiggling those buns all summer long.
