Mos Def, Basement Jaxx Headline Soundscape Festival

Mos Def is widely regarded as the most talented rapper-slash-actor of all time because A) It’s true and B) Ice Cube has how many Golden Globe nominations next to his name? Also, Black Star. So believe us when we say that Def’s impending trip Down Under as part of Hobart’s Soundscape Festival has us seriously considering a journey off the mainland.

Mos Def will be joined by fellow internationals Basement Jaxx (DJ set only), Mystery Jets and Born Ruffians as well as local heroes Midnight Juggernauts, Operator Please and Sparkadia. Soundscape takes place at the Hobart Regatta Grounds on Saturday the 8th of January 2011. For more information, head to the official Soundscape Festival website.

Lineup is as follows:
Basement Jaxx (DJ set)
Mos Def
Midnight Juggernauts
Mystery Jets
