Sunken Cages: Digital Folk Music

“This show is a unique hybrid between live performance and production. You’ll also hear the influence of street sounds from underground dance music from Sao Paolo to Durban to Mumbai and beyond. The masterful mix of acoustic and electronic drums and cultures makes for a musical experience not to miss. “

Out today!!! Via On the Corner Records Made in Brooklyn Super proud of this record, a culmination of a decade’s work on configuring the right blend of electronic/ acoustic vibes. From having worked with avant-legend Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre (RIP) to being on a label with forward-thinking musicians/producers from around the globe. Taking to heart the AACM motto of ‘Ancient to the Future’..

While the actual release date still hasn’t been officially announced, my debut is up on https://sunkencages.bandcamp.com/ for pre-sales!

Hoping to have a date soon, most likely March 2021 at this juncture 🙂

Honored to officially join the roster of https://onthecornerrecords.bandcamp.com/artists

(along with Dengue Dengue Dengue, Asher Gamedze, Hieroglyphic Being, Batida, Collocutor, et al)

Debut record, “When The Waters Refuse Our History” out in September 2020

To start, Bandcamp waived its fees on May 1st, and my record label, On The Corner, in turn, kicked back 100% of the sales to the artists..

Well ahead of my summer debut, I collaborated with Iranian vocalist/instrumentalist, Kamyar Arsani to make a hybrid electronic track that draws on Persian percussion as much as it does on deep global bass.
