Reviews of Habibi Funk 031, Kayatibu, and The Good Ones
Forwards lives up to expectations
		GEORGE FOGARTY offers a rapping summation
	 
			Forwards Bristol Music Festival
Clifton Downs
 
Gathering outside with drums pounding is basic to humanity
Since before the neolithic counter-revolution you call the dawn of history
First up today is Melt Yourself Down
Purveyors of a visceral new sound
Tired of faking the ride
They respect and connect with the storm inside
Ruth Goller, the pounding heart of the place
Gutsy and raw and born to rock bass
Two saxes collide, punchy as fuck
Perfect for yer sunday morning moshpit ruck
The urgency of now built on a power of old
African rhythms with a beauteously dirty punk soul
