Ben Sharpa

February 8, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Ben Sharpa from Soweto, South Africa, has been getting support from Jarring Effects since his track on “Capetown Beats” compilation in 2008. Furthermore, Mary Ann Hobbs played his tune “Into the Black” on BBC Radio1 and in november last year Ben Sharpa has returned with a new full length album.

Growing up in an alien culture, since his parents relocated to Chicago, Illinois, fleeing from South Africa’s brutal Apartheit regime, Ben was inspired by the radical new voice that Hip Hop was giving the oppressed. In 1993 he came back to South Africa for the first free elections and quickly establishing himself as a major force in underground hip hop, known for his crews with experimental, abstractedly asynchronous beats and stream of consciousness rhymes.

“B.SHARPA”, his new album,  is now at the forefront of a new wave of soundsystem music, underpinned by heavy, hybrid hip hop beats with influences from electro, dub, Detroit techno, dancehall, electronica and glitch.

The Low End Theory

January 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

The Low End Theory is a weekly clubnight in Los Angeles specialized in music for which you need a very good soundsystem and with resident DJ’s that know how to destroy a very good soundsystem.  The Low End Theory has also launched a decent podcast, which you find on ITUNES or as download directly on their page. The latest episode number XI features noize head and resident DJ Gaslamp Killer together with all around artist and producer Kutmah.

Furthermore I was happy to see there is also an insight documentary about the club, ok I’m a bit late on this one but lately I’m becoming a total music movie geek, so check the trailer below!

Beats n Bass

January 15, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Culture System is a wonderful blog from NYC, which I found via Globalibre. Waer Rock just released a NYC mixtape on it with all things bass, which I have to repost. It’s good. It comes with a Radiohead Remix, so watch out.

“A collection of mostly unreleased and new bass music from New York. From dubstep and dub to boom bap and garage. This mix is not comprehensive, it’s more of a snapshot. There’s quite a few more artists we’re really feelin’ out here.”

Pollinate

January 5, 2010 · Leave a Comment

… is a label based in London managed by Squaredº, which I came across on Facebook. Squaredº also does parties together with Neon Skullz called Azteks on Acid, so watch out for some funky madness in Londontown! As the name says they’ll be throwing azteks music with acid and dancefloor business together!

Have a listen to Mr. Pollinates latest mix, in which he mingles all and everything from UK Funky to Kwaito, Cumbia and Bassline, including his own stuff!

Maga Bo from Brazil graces the globesonic world with a new mixtape called Outras Terras, assembling unreleased material, own remixes and material from his globetrotting friends. Via his blog Kolleidosonic.

Playlist of Outras Terras Mixtape with indepth explanation of track origins below.

1. “Ê Boi (Maga Bo Remix)” Coco Raízes de Arcoverde (Unreleased)
Traditional coco meets dancehall. An unlabeled mp3 that I fell in love with – “…Eu vou morar em outras terras.”

2. “E Daí feat. Speed Freaks” Sonar Calibrado (Maga Bo and Filastine) (12″ Shockout)
Dancehall made with the samples of car alarms, cut up saharan blues guitar and the stream of conscious rhymes of the Niteroiense rapper, Speed Freaks.

3. “B’tallah (Maga Bo Remix)” Filastine (12″ Post World Industries – forthcoming)
Trilingual rhymes by Barcelona-based Algerian rapper Rabah (of MBS) float over ragga with trills of breakcore and cell phone speaker interference.
