errata/clarifications: Karl Hector & the Malcouns are from Münich. ?uestlove's real name is Ahmir Khalib Thompson. The Preservation Room has nothing to do with Cecil Sharp House. Univers Zero and Aksak Maboul were both Belgian bands. And, yes, Callum from the Boot Lagoon is currently out in North America touring with Syd Arthur, shadowing their sound engineer.
