The Psychedelic Forest Carnival @ Kelburn Castle and Country Park, 15 September

Wrapping up a trio of events being held over the summer at Kelburn Castle is The Psychedelic Forest Carnival, a party inspired by the sounds of Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean. Headlining the event is London’s Olushola Ajose, aka Afrikan Boy. The native Nigerian will deliver jaunty grime tracks, characterised by autotune-inflected choruses and infectiously catchy club hip-hop rhythms. Ajose has found willing collaborators in established artists such as M.I.A. and DJ Shadow and, as a performer with swagger in abundance, he should posses enough in his locker to close the carnival in style.

There is also plenty of home-grown talent on show, including Glaswegian dancehall outfit Argonaut Sounds and the ever lively Samba Ya Bamba, who will be showcasing their genre-defying fusion of global party music. In a similar vein, the event will host another Scottish act with a fondness for melding far-flung musical influences together, Brian d’Souza, aka Auntie Flo, who has had a productive year, launching his Future Rhythm Machine album at London’s Fabric as well as treating Boiler Room viewers to a memorable live stream featuring energetic percussive accompaniment and electronically-manipulated vocals from Esa Williams. In short, there will be plenty of diverse flavours on offer all evening.
