Iba One

Chris from Sahel Sounds Just returned to the Sahel region of Mali/Mauritania for more music advocacy, and information transmission. And the gems have already begun to flow.

Keep and eye to his website in the months to come. He will be  based out of a recording studio in the town of Nouakchott, Mauritania. Gathering urban and traditional sounds, and building sonic community.

Chris and I have been sharing tunes, and are planning on some exciting collabs in the very new future..

Stay choooned.

Iba One and some soulful raps from Mali.

SUSTENTACULA – “SALEM CITY OF PEACE”

Warble Records – 2010

SUSTENTACULA just released an amazing new record “SALEM CITY OF PEACE”, via there own Warble Records.

An amazing collection of epic percussive productions, and soulful prophetic vocals.

This is some end times/ astral transition shit right here. Plug into the now time future vibe transmissions.

Planetary Boombox!

On the nerd tip:  Visionary production and arrangement of acoustic vs. sequenced sources. Power house dudes at work.

Hit them up, as they are so generously offering the whole record as a “pay as you want” high quality download

SUSTENTACULA is David Rafn and Ryan Stuewe, two of PDX’s finest crunk/experimentalists.

JAMmm it.

Skweee Cruise

Posted on by

The Baddest Skweee Label on the west coast, POISONOUS GASES just dropped an insane 2×12″ slab of international skweee thumps. PDX is proud to be the home of such a venture, I can boast and say that the mysterious boss man over at POISONOUS GASES has been a dear homie of mine for over a decade now. He pulled together an amazing cast of producers, who are pushing and pulling this amorphous genre into elastic and syrup drenched new places. Krunk Fuckin FANTASTIC!

Go buy a copy before they are sold for tripple on ebay.
