Dub Qawwali Release Party- Thursday Night!

Bob — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 17:19:18 GMT

Hope to see some of you at this special event:

Six Degrees Records Presents:

“Dub Qawwali” Record Release Party

@ Nickies

on Thursday, September 27

466 Haight Street, San Francisco, CA

$Free / 10:00 PM / 415.255.0300

www.sixdegreesrecords.com / www.nickies.com

On September 27, Six Degrees Records celebrates the release of Gaudi + Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s ‘Dub Qawwali’ record at Nickies in San Francisco, CA. The DJs performing for the night are Six Degrees president and co-founder Bob Duskis, The Worker (Stateless), and DJ Cyan (Grime City). Songs off the critically acclaimed Dub Qawwali album will be showcased alongside exclusive unreleased remixes. Prepare for a special night of International music across the board from reggae to qawwali to world beat, and global groove.

Dub Qawwali blends the incomparable vocals of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan with traditional instrumentation and a full spectrum of Reggae and Dub elements, Gaudi has sensitively created a set of completely new tracks from a collection of recently discovered and rare studio sessions, recorded in Pakistan in the late 60’s and early 70’s. Dub Qawwali once again brings to life one of the most powerful and moving voices of our time in an exciting new context.

August 16, 2007 marked the 10 Year anniversary of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s passing. Hailed as one of TIME magazine’s “60 Years of Asian Heroes” and dubbed by many as the ‘Elvis of the East’ and the ‘Bob Marley of Pakistan’ these titles are not without foundation; some have claimed he has sold more albums than Elvis, and he has reached as many hearts and souls and crossed as many cultural and spiritual boarders as Bob Marley with his unique mix of poetic eastern spiritual and western musical themes.

Although there have been plentiful remixes and re-workings of the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, none have compared to Gaudi’s original work on Dub Qawwali. National Public Radio (NPR) has featured two stories on Gaudi’s process and reverence in creating Dub Qawwali and highlights the life of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

Reach Early! Stay Late!

ROB SMITH

In 1988 clubs, cafes and bars across the nation began tuning into a track that would help define the next 16 years of British dance music. `Anyone (who had a heart)’, a Bacharach and David cover, done in a style that used the lyrics but resembled little of the original, introduced `Smith and Mighty’ to the U.K. dance culture's consciousness. The tracks heavy synthesized dub bass, tight production, mid-tempo b-drum heavy and sharp snare beat, set off with piano, strings, a couple of well placed samples sat magnificently behind Jackie Jackson’s sublime vocal. This track presented a new mix template for dance music, which had been hinted at by the Wild Bunch’s version of `The Look of Love’ the year before. The duo of Rob Smith and Ray Mighty perfected this style with their own unique vision as they went on to release another instant classic `Walk on By’ (again a Bacharach and David cover), produced a top ten single for Fresh Four (Wishing on a Star), produced Massive Attacks first single (Any Love) and a sublime album for Carlton (The Call is Strong) on London records who had pulled out the check book to sign the act. Smith and Mighty continued to produce, remix and DJ across the world and worked on an album that would not see the light of day due to record company short-sightedness. During this time they worked with Neneh Cherry and Fine Young Cannibals amongst others before they left London in 1994. One 12” they did release before leaving London was the `Steppers Delight EP’, tracks on this anticipated the `Jungle/Drum and Bass’ scene and kept S&M’s reputation riding high. After they left London they set up their own `More Rockers’ label and set the standards even higher with the `Bass is Maternal’ album. Rob and Ray then provided K7 with a DJ kicks album and signed to the German Label for a series of Smith and Mighty albums. With Rob and Peter D Rose also linking up in the drum and bass act More Rockers the 1990s were a hectic and busy period. Rob Smith has now entered a new phase in his recording career and has released his debut `solo’ album on Manchester’s Grand Central Records. `Up on the Downs’ has all the elements of classic Bristolian creativity. You can hear Rob’s many influences from Punk and New-Wave, Reggae and dub to heart wrenching Soul. There are collaborations with a range of vocalists who provide gorgeous compliments to Smiths compositions. Smith has consistently championed the independent, DIY philosophy of punk and has always produced music that speaks to the emotions as well as the dance floor. He is presently writing a second album for Grand Central, DJing all over the world and continuing to produce music of the highest quality.

Hi

I'm creating a player with all my favourite music, it's a player like in My Space but where you can list different artists:

You create it here:
www.mp3assets.com/

Example of one:
www.iqons.com/mariaphotographer

Do you know a place where they play ethno techno music and have links to songs in MP3 streaming format? (legal MP3 streaming site) or a place where I can buy individual songs in MP3 format?

Thanks

STATELESS at RICKSHAW STOP, SF SATURDAY 3/10/07

khenu — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 03:17:45 GMT

Men and Women, Young and Old…All of them are ready for Chapter Two of the Stateless crew’s run at the mighty Rickshaw Stop coming this Saturday, March 10th.

Hot off the heals of our successful party featuring Stateless stalwarts Roots and Wires Sound Dimensional and the Worker along side SF favorites, Lemonade, and Rio’s Magabo, Chapter two only increases the heat as we move into the spring months.

This time around we have very special guests and Soot Records recording artists DJ Rupture and Filastine.

Barcelona based, DJ Rupture will be bringing his trademark sonic clash of global beats mashed up inna 3-turntable fashion. Audio alchemy through a 21st century filter!

Filastine, in his second performance at a Stateless event, will be dropping his politically charged sounds siphoned through a laptop and stitched together with hip-hop backbone and live percussion. Postworld sonic grit aimed straight at the World Bank’s head!

…And just in case you thought it ended there, Roots and Wires will be playing their trademark blend of original productions and outernational beats from dubstep to UK steppers. Of course, Special Agent K and Andy G will be running it all through their wide array of sound banks, effects units, and secret sonic weapons inna dubwise fashion! Roots and Wires’ highly individual take on visuals will also be omnipresent throughout the night…So open your eyes and ears for the sounds and sights of the Roots and Wires!

Rounding off the bill will be the Worker with his always tight and tip-top minimal house, ragga breaks, and international hip-hop vibes.

As always reach early and stay late for this musical dispensation meant to rock the nations!

Dhamaal forward: Sub Swara

amar — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 11:00:12 GMT

Dhamaal is branching out and into new creative ventures with the birth of Surya Dub, the transformation of Worldly into Outer Worldly, and the continuation of the East Coast vibe with Sub Swara.

On behalf of my brothers, I am starting new topic threads here on the Dhamaal website to inform dedicated Dhamaal supporters of what is growing from the seeds that blossomed almost 8 years ago. The cocoon has burst and a trio of butterflies have shaken their wings, grown together and are now exploring their own creative worlds to share with you.

This thread is about Sub Swara, Dhruva's extension of the Dhamaal vibe to the East Coast when he moved to NYC.

Drawing from the most ancient of musical traditions as well as the most forward in bass bomb culture, Sub Swara is one of New Yorks hottest monthly club nights and live electronic crews. At the core of the night lies the Sub Swara Live Set. Comprised of Sub Swara residents, Dhruva (DJ/tabla-ist, producer), Sunder (DJ, turntablist) Haj (DJ/Producer), Juakali (Vocalist) Pictureman (Visual DJ), and DJ Nasha (DJ, Producer), the live set seamlessly combines DJ-ing with live tabla, turntablism, Ragga vocals and visual tweakery. Bringing an organic element of showmanship and musical communication across a slew of genre-crushing beats and bass, the SS crew drops the thunder on the live soundsystem. Look out for the debut album from the Sub Swara crew in the summer of 2007

The next Sub Swara will be Feb 24 at Cosm.
You can also see Sub Swara at Element Lounge March 2, April 6, May 4
Check their myspace page for upcoming shows and record release updates.

The Sub Swara crew is:
Dhruva -- Producer/DJ/Percussionist
Sunder -- DJ/Turntablist
Haj -- DJ/Producer
Juakali -- Vocalist
Pictureman & Skip Intro -- Visualists

Special Guests will join each month and the resident crew will be in continuous rotation.

Dhruva can add anything I missed here. Tribe folks in the east coast, or west coast folks visiting NYC - be sure to check out a Sub Swara show.

Dhamaal forward: Outer Worldly

The cocoon has burst and a trio of butterflies have shaken their wings, grown together and are now exploring their own creative worlds to share with you.

This thread is about Worldly & Outer Worldly

Worldly began roughly 2 years ago with a big bash of a night that permanently transformed the club 1015 Folsom into a Global Vibe arena. The night was the first of its kind anywhere in SF on such a massive scale. I'll let Janaka cime in, since he's the creator of Worldly, and explain more in detail how Worldly started and what sparked him to do it.
It's come a long way from then. Now I have joined him in promoting the event, after many a night DJing, coordinating dancers and assisting in promotion and production of this massive show.

Worldly will continue as a massive periodic event bringing high profile talent from across the world.

Outer Worldly will be a Monthly San Francisco Club Night with Cheb i Sabbah ,Janaka Selekta & DJ Amar with Live performances by Sukhawat Ali Khan & Riffat Sultana

Special Guests on the near horizon will include Dr. Das (Ex-Asian Dub Foundation) State of Bengal Karsh Kale Visionary Underground Shiva UK Plus More

The next WORLDLY will be March 2 at 1015 Folsom with a special live set by Asian Dub Foundation founder DR. DAS, plus Karsh Kale, Cheb i Sabbah, Janaka, Amar, Sukhawat Ali Khan with Shiraz Ali Khan, Ferhan Qureshi & Rami Ziadeh, Tribal Belly Dance performances by Frederique, Freyja & Medina, Shisha Lounge by Faux Dive (Hookadome), Fine art by NyOMI, Space transformation by Glory STGO.

The Outer Worldly crew is: Cheb i Sabbah * Janaka Selekta * DJ Amar

Special Guests will join each month and the resident crew will be in continuous rotation.

Dhamaal forward: Surya Dub

amar — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 10:31:25 GMT

Dhamaal is branching out and into new creative ventures with the birth of Surya Dub, the transformation of Worldly into Outer Worldly, and the continuation of the East Coast vibe with Sub Swara.

On behalf of my brothers, I am starting new topic threads here on the Dhamaal website to inform dedicated Dhamaal supporters of what is growing from the seeds that blossomed almost 8 years ago. The cocoon has burst and a trio of butterflies have shaken their wings, grown together and are now exploring their own creative worlds to share with you.

This first thread is about Surya Dub.

The first Surya Dub took place on January 27. Conceptualized by Dhamaal partner Maneesh the Twister, Surya Dub is the next level in Global Dubwize Vibes and Dread Bass Culture. The goal is to unite all dubwize communities from Roots Reggae to Dubstep and Ragga to Dread Bass Breakbeat and Drum'n'Bass to Bhangra, S. Asian and Global Bass Beat Bizness. Originating from ancient Sanskrit ‘Surya’ means Sun or Solar and with this energy combining with the bass heavy aesthetic of Dub, the new project comes alive. We're made up of a deep and heavy crew of top-ranking selectas and producers

The next Surya Dub will be Feb 24, and following that next month forward will be on the 4th Saturday of the month at Club Six.

The Surya Dub crew is: Maneesh the Twister * Kush Arora * MC Daddy Frank * Kid Kameleon * Ripley * Ross Hogg * DJ Neta * Jimmy Love * DJ Amar * Sitar * VJ Ohashi * Samba Guisse

Special Guests will join each month and the resident crew will be in continuous rotation.

Karsh Kale(Six Degrees/Kollektiv)
Described by Billboard Magazine as a “visionary composer and producer”, Karsh Kale (pronounced “Kursh Kah-lay”) is one of global electronic music’s brightest stars. While his peers view Kale as a force of nature on both tabla and drums, Kale is an equally innovative song writer, producer, composer and DJ. Whether playing live or as a DJ . Kale has brought his infectious global sound to almost every major city on four continents. Kale is equally renown by both fans and critics as the pioneer of a sound that captures a panorama of influences - past and future, analog and digital - bringing classical Indian music into the Western mainstream rock and electronic vernacular. In a span of less than seven years, Kale released four critically acclaimed solo albums on Six Degrees Records, became a founding member of the super groups Tabla Beat Science and Realize Live, recorded and remixed countless artists, and has collaborated with the likes of Zakir Hussain, Paul Oakenfold, Sting, Anoushka Shankar, Salim-Sulaiman, Bill Laswell, MIDIval Punditz, Norah Jones, Sultan Khan, Paula Cole, Susheela Raman and Herbie Hancock. Karsh has also created Kollektiv, a national crew of DJs' producers, musicians and artists showcasing cutting edge underground music through Kollektiv events across the country.

Sub Swara (Sunder, Dhruva and Haj)
The Sub Swara crew has making serious waves in the world of cutting edge sound since its inception as a performing crew and club residency in 2005. Both as individual recording and performing artists and as a tandem, the Sub Swara crew is everywhere right now.Defying genre and concocting a bass charged blend of midtempo breaks, ragga dancehall, glitch, dub step, next level breakbeat and the uncategorizable, Dhruva, Sunder, Haj have created a profound imprint and redefined dance music with their signature blend of mixing, turntablism and live dubbed out tabla. With a slew of crushing new material, a much anticipated debut album scheduled for late summer 2007 release, and blazing gigs from coasts to coast and across the world, SS has been pushing big speaker bizness to new levels.

The Sub Swara live set represents the crew in fullest effect. With the recent addition of heavyweight mc Juakali to the live Set Sub Swara has added a crucial ragga component to their international bass and breaks filled sound and has continued to ignite and unite crews from all sonic lineages. The SS sounds run deep and traverses all boundaries.

Pedro (Reality Engine/ Interchill/ CoSM)
Originally from Brazil, Pedro plays and produces free style tribal grooves, with dub beats into midtempo trance, breaks and house, he fuses influences from many tribal cultures and genres to build an uplifting experience

Dhamaal and WORLDLY Planz 2007!

janaka — Thu, 30 Nov 2006 22:01:37 GMT

After much deliberation the Dhamaal Collective will no longer be doing shows at Club Six and will no longer perform using the Dhamaal name and logo.

The good news is that OuterWORLDLY will start next year at Club Six as an extension of our massive WORLDLY shows at 1015 Folsom. OuterWORLDLY will happen monthly while WORLDLY (which takes a monumental effort to out on) will sport 3-5 shows in 2007.

I have created a new tribe, myspace and website – this is all very early in the game so content needs to be added but please take a moment and join up – why?

Cos –
OuterWORLDLY will be Cheb I Sabbah and myself joining forces to create a new space for world sounds in SF (and hopefully beyond). Chebiji will be in full swing with his new album around the time of the first show – you will get to hear early versions on the dancefloor. I have loads of new tunes too that I want to test on your bassbins.

Of course -
Sukhawat Ali Khan, Riffat Sultana, Ferhan Qureshi, Rami Ziadeh who have been highlights of WORLDLY will be at Club Six every month.

Fine Art –
Nyomi continues to add her wonderful paintings to the space. The brilliant graphic design and art of Ameet Mehta and Kai-wen will also be front and center.

Video DJs –
We miss Skip Intro who recently moved to Philly – but he will be creating content for the shows and Visuals will permeate the space.

Guests-
As with WORLDLY expect to see selekt guest musicians from around the world that will blow your mind

www.tribe.net/outerworldly
www.myspace.com/outerworldly (going to have music from Chebiji, myself, Sukhawat and Riffat on here soon)

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

janaka — Tue, 22 Aug 2006 19:19:57 GMT

Have you read this book?

I have been giving this book as a gift to friends over the years and it seems to resonate with all of them. It is a fable about the struggle to achieve your personal legend - if you feel like you are fighting the odds this book is really worth reading.

I read about the author a little and he has had an incredible and at points physically painful (tortured) life. His life experiences must have given birth to the ideas in this book - sounds like he followed his legend through thick and thin.

Thought I'd post this for those of you who have not read it.

Let me know if you liked it.

Much love and respect from East Ham, London - I'll be back in SF October.
Janaka

STATELESS - 9/30 (sat) @ Amnesia - featuring wailing junktet and roots and wires hi-fi!

khenu — Sat, 30 Sep 2006 02:56:26 GMT

hello friends,

thanks to all that came out for filastine's performance last month - it was a truly inspiring set for a comfortably packed house. we will have some photos up soon on the roots and wires website...

this saturday, september 30th, we return with the ninth round of stateless, again at SF's amnesia. for our live act, we are excited to bring you the wailing junktet, performing brazillian rhythms on found junk objects... they were killer at the recent novo sounds event (at the supper club)...

our guest dj is vanka, who hosts the misturada event at club six. here's a blurb that xlr8r's tomas palermo wrote about him:

"DJ Vanka has tapped into a vibe that clubs like Bar Rhumba in London have been promoting for years: organic and electronic Afro-Latin dance music. Vanka's hardly late to the game, though; he DJed for 10 years with Stellar Trax soundsystem, playing everything from reggae to drum 'n' bass. Now the Belgian native focuses his energies on the Worldwide crew (which includes DJs Wisdom and Ruben) and makes sure the Make-Out Room is packed with dancers every Saturday for Misturada (Portuguese for "mixed"). As Vanka works his way through a mix of salsa, samba, reggaeton, cumbia, Latin house, and Brazilian batucada breaks, the place becomes a sweatbox of swirling bodies"

wicked!

resident dj, the worker (six degrees, stateless), will drop his usual dancefloor magic, with everything from baile funk to ragga breaks.

the roots and wires hi-fi will close out the night, in full soundsystem style - with both original productions and the thickest selections, from dubstep and ragga-jungle, old school bollywood and asian massive, to uk steppers and roots reggae... their performance will be dubbed live with analogue delays, siren and sound units, melodica and more...

finally, the stateless crew will tag-team and provide visual mixing to complete the multimedia mandala...

make sure to come out for a diverse night of outernational and rootsical sounds, live and electronic, roots and wires...

the night starts at 9PM and goes until 2AM. the cover is only $5. the location is amnesia, 853 valencia - between 19th and 20th...

peace,

khenu (special agent k)

Stalker on tribe, myspace and at events in bay area harassing bellydancers & others

amar — Fri, 07 Jul 2006 03:26:40 GMT

Some of you may have seen this already, but just in case not ... our good friend Tim has posted this on tribe and myspace and I feel the need to make sure Everybody is aware, so Please pass this on where you can.

Aparrently this guy has a history and has had run-ins with choir girls in the past, and is trying to teach middle eastern drumming after openly stating he picked up his first doumbek 6 weeks ago. So who knows where he'll be next.

From Tim:
This is addressed mainly to my wonderful dancer friends here, but is useful for everyone.

Some of you may know that an individual has been haunting Tribe and the Bay Area belly dance scene for the last few months. He has approached and propositioned dozens of dancers both locally, and nationwide (online), upsetting many (including friends of mine), and even scaring a few with his stalker-like behavior.

He finds women's phone numbers, home addresses, emails, etc., and starts contacting them, often repeatedly.

There has been considerable discussion about him on Tribe, with many women coming forward with horror stories about his unwanted attention

You can read the full details here:

http://mideastpercussion.tribe.net/thread/dac187d1-5662-4b26-8a41-8a56cfa37fe9

(he's the one who started this thread, get a good look and avoid him if you see him locally)

http://bellydancebiz.tribe.net/thread/5c345e83-e61b-441c-b82a-b560642ab2b3

(various people's reactions to him)

Here is his MySpace profile:

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=21558109

Needless to say, do NOT accept a friend invite from this man, do not correspond with him at all.

Various dancers are looking into taking appropriate action, and the hope is that he will be gone from Myspace and Tribe soon. In the mean time, have nothing to do with him.

This kind of thing really makes my blood boil, and I felt it was necessary to put out a warning, since I have a large number of dancer friends. Please pass this on to everyone, even non-dancers!

Stateless SF @ Amnesia - Fri 6/30/06 - Featuring Micropixie and Jeff Stott!

khenu — Wed, 28 Jun 2006 21:47:06 GMT

First off - thanks to everyone that made it out to a packed Amnesia for our last Stateless event. It was a great evening - mad props to Kush Arora for his next-step ragga-bhangra set!

We will be celebrating our six-month anniversary on Friday, June 30, again at Amnesia (b/w 19th and 20th on Valencia, in SF's Mission). We will start at 9 PM and go until 2 AM - the cover is only $5. This should be an extra-special event, as we have two amazing headliners, as well as video artists this time.

First, desi space-alien Micropixie (www.micropixie.com) will be playing her ethereal sounds, with live tabla accompaniment and laptop beats. Then, Jeff Stott, MC Rai producer and founder of Embarka Records (www.embarkarecords.com) , will be performing beats and oud, with a violinist and arabic percussion.

Michael (The Worker) and I (Special Agent K) will be dropping opening and closing sets - spinning roots, dub, bhangra, outernational breaks and jungle, afrojazz, dancehall, dubstep and so on...

I'll be doing my usual soundsystem business, with siren unit and analogue delays. I'm also planning on dropping some dubplates of original south asian dubstep and drum and bass.

Finally, we will be incorporating a visual component. This will include a video piece by Sue C , a photographer and video artist (www.orthlorng.com/sue/live.html) who works with a combination of analog and digital processes, doing "live improvisational video performances using a custom built system in the max/msp/jitter software environment"... We will also be joined by a guest visual artist, Yasi, who is a member of the Flaming Lotus Girls (www.flaminglotus.com) and who will be providing some live visual pieces to complement the evening. The visual element should be a nice addition to our developing event.

I'm still developing my dubwise tabla and midi footcontroller setup, so expect to see this as part of my set in the next few months!

So please come out and join us for an intimate evening of bass frequencies, outernational beats, live performance and visual art!

Warmly, Khenu (Special Agent K!)

Dhruva's coming to SF - Dhamaal DJ Reunion - YEAH!

amar — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 00:48:03 GMT

I'm Really excited that Dhruva and the Sub Swara crew will be in town and that I get to host them along with Janaka and Maneesh - Dhamaal Stylee - connecting the coasts (SF & NY).

On June 30th, we're taking over the Dark Room at Club Six for a mix of Brand Spankin new sounds and the familiar Dhamaal stylee with the founding members joining together at their home - Club Six.

In addition to Dhruva, Janaka & Maneesh bringing home the Dhamaal Vibe, i'm looking forward to the Sub Swara Live set.
I was in awe the first time I saw Sunder spinning and scratching live a couple years back at Samadhi, and a few times since then. I'm excited that he'll be back in town joining up, and i'm really excited to hear Haj live. I have yet to hear a live set by Haj, who I know is going to take the house down with Sub Swara partners Sunder & Dhruva.

I'll be spinning an opening set and we'll have a sweet set also by Kush Arora,
plus Spectacular bellydance preformances by my Electric vardo partner Frederique,
and the amazingly wonderful Haven.

Yeay!

THIS MONDAY IN NY-DEEP SPACE W/ FRANCOIS K., DUB GABRIEL, UMAR BIN HASSAN (LAST POETS), SATISH!!!!

dubgabriel — Wed, 07 Jun 2006 11:06:30 GMT

Hey everyone, I just arrived back in New York to visit and to kick off a tour doing 20 shows around the United States.
For the last 8 months I have been living in Berlin and it has been a total trip.
It feels good to be back in the states and I am hoping to see all my New York friends together this Monday at Deep Space where I will be doing my only NY show.
It will be a special night doing an all-live global dub soundsystem with Last Poets legend Umar Bin Hassan, who also was on the last Common record as well as Trumpet playing madman Satish on horn and electronics.
And of course resident DJ, Francois K.
Please come and join me, catch up with good friends in a fun night!!

PRESENT
DUB GABRIEL' S BROOKLYN MASSIVE SOUNDSYSTEM (FIRST
TIME BACK IN NY SINCE MOVING TO BERLIN, DUB GABES ONLY
LIVE NY SHOW!!!! A NIGHT NOT TO MISS!!!)

@

between Washington Street and 9th Avenue NYC
Admission is $10, $5 before 10pm
For additional information visit:
www.deepspacenyc.com

Step back, all ye wannabe rappers and check out one of
the originals who made hip hop possible. Before Africa
Bambaata was throwing parties in the Bronx, before
Prince Whipper Whip was rocking with the Fantastic 5
and before the Rock Steady Crew ever attempted their
first windmills, Umar Bin Hassan and the Last Poets
were making rhythm and poetry live on the streets of
Harlem.
Thirty years later a number of the more socially and
politically conscious emcees are planning a tribute
album to the Last Poets featuring Common, Dead
Prez, Chuck D, Keith Murray, Buckshot, Kanye West,
Erykah Badu and others.
Since 1999, Brooklyn Producer/DJ Dub Gabriel and Last
Poets’s founder Umar Bin Hassan have collaborated in
many ways.
First with Umar’s now legendary appearance on Dub
Gabriel’s Baraka Orchestra album, Then with Dub
Gabriel and Prof. Shehab releasing Umar’s album
produced by Bill Laswell. Gabriel’s Current album
“Bass Jihad” is a modern Middle Eastern Dub
masterpiece being compared by Billboard magazine to
Brian Eno as well as on the best of 2005 list from
many magazines and radio stations from around the
world.
The night will be a celebration of not only the return
meeting of these two artist, but also it will be the
first time Dub Gabriel is in New York since moving to
Berlin Germany 8 months ago.
This legendary night will feature Dub Gabriel\s
Brooklyn Massive soundsystem doing all live dubbing
and music creating. as well as Trumpet maestro Satish
on the dub trumpet and surprise guest!!
and of course your host and pilot for the evening on
the ones and twos Mr. Francois K.!!
