Only checked out the 1st song yet due to the shenanigans I got to go through to watch Youtube (download and watch thru' wmc)
Baloji (feat. Konono N°1) - "Karibu Ya Bintou"
is feckin immense, totally immerse you into the dusty sidestreet ofthe congo.
From the onset with the funky guitar and then the heavily distorted guitar overlay it sounded convoluted but worked incredibly well.
The vid was also great, as it seemed you had an inside look at their world.
All in all will be digging further from this artist (wish I could understand french).

Bassnectar - "Snakecharmer"
Like the drum sample which sounds familiar with a nice asian hook throughout, would've have prefered a climax or a deviation but overall very good.

New Santogold (Feat. M.I.A. & Gorilla Zoe) – Get It Up
Solid Santogold tune with a great contrabution from M.I.A. and Gorilla Zoe.
M.I.A, she really sounds good in this and I can't wait for the new album.
