THE NEW ALBUM: "Under the Influence" by Dj Spooky that Subliminal Kid
The record is called "Under the Influence"... the artist is called "Dj Spooky that Subliminal Kid"... the mix is yet another sound art piece directed out at a world in geo-political upheaval... more than that, its a sound piece based on ruins and resilience, sound and silence - aural mnemonics from the edge of the 4th world... In this era of confusion and relentless corruption at all levels of world culture, sometimes music is the only thing to make us all realize that we have something in common: humanity.
So that's what the new album is about: synchronia/synchronicity - pulling all the patterns together with sound... there's tracks from Moby, Talvin Singh, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Future Sound of London, electro wild stylz from Anti-Pop Consortium, Phoenix Orion and Dj Hive, art music maestros Sonic Youth and Arto Lindsay, Dj Singe and MC Verb who do that legendary event in NYC called Soundlab... and there's even turntablists like Mix Master Mike from the Beastie Boys and his Automator remix (Automator is the fellow behind the "Gorrilaz" virtual band), Kut Masta Kurt and his project with Kool Keith and Motion Man a.k.a. "The Masters of Illusion" and Dj DeckWreckka out of London, and the poet laureate of experimental hip-hop, Saul Williams... The album also features some of Dj Spooky's remixes and collaborations with Sussan Deyhim - master of digital persian music on a global scale...
The idea here, as always, is to flip the script on contemporary music and art to build bridges between scenes, zones, and styles... you could call it global pan humanism or something... Whatever the name, just come on by and check the vibe: there'll be people from all tribes and affiliations, rich, poor, weird, normal, literary... whatever... its a carnival of all souls open to the sounds... .... another 21st Century wildstyle situation...
Time: This FRIDAY - 9pm until whenever...
Place: The Lunatarium - Jay & Water Streets in Dumbo Brooklyn - top floor... really big industrial space with a view of all three bridges between the city....
Visual Material: The event will also be a special screening of Carrie mae Weems response to the World Trade Center tragedy: a video called "A Moment of Silence"
