Sub Swara 024::12.1-Year End Mashout w/Stereotyp, Maryanne Hobbs, Dhruva vs. Sharmaji

dhruva — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 23:15:48 GMT

We're closing the year out LARGE with SS 024! 2 of our favorite artists and ambassadors of bass weight are crossing the Atlantic and touching down at LOVE on a special SATURDAY EDITION to celebrate an amazing year of sound and community.

Behind Door #1…STEREOTYP!!!! We rinse his tracks all the time and it's about time that we get the bredren behind the decks. One of the tru pioneers of digi dancehall and next level dread bass is comin' thru and his track record is too epic to fit on this page…needless to say, his work on Kruder & Dorfmeister's G-Stone records, Klein Records, collabs with Al-Haca, Warrior Queen, Dub Club have been groundbreaking straight up and down. Get Ready…(www.myspace.com/stefanmoerth )

Behind Door #2…MARYANNE HOBBS!!! – The Radio 1 firebrand at the helm of the pioneering experimental electronic show (Tuesday nite >> Wednesday morning 2.00-4.00am) reppin' next generation dubstep, grime, drum&bass, hip-hop, techno, and radical electronic flavaz in every form (formerly known as the Breezeblock) is making her way from London to get up in the Dance. A luminary pushing the freshest underground sounds to the forefront, Mary Anne released a definitive underground compilation album in October 2006. 'Mary Anne Hobbs. Warrior Dubz features exclusive dubs from some of the most cutting edge artists operating on the UK underground scenes (Benga, DMZ, Burial, Loefah, The Bug, Amit, Kode 9 and more). She also featured Sub Swara's own Dhruva and Sharmaji in an epic soundclash vs. Skull Disco (Shackleton and Appleblim) on her show in 07. (www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/maryannehobbs/)

Speaking of which, Sharmaji (now an official Sub Swara resident -- much respect to Badman DS!) and Dhruva will be teaming up again for a tag team dub session in honor of MaryAnne's presence. A heap of original dubs ready to drop...

Plus, the Sub Swara live set will be in full force, comin' correct with a preview of the Sub Swara album (droppin' early 2008) and the sonics that span the spectrum of bass bin culture.

Like we said, LARGE!! See you up in the dance.

Save Internet Radio from Corporate Money Grab

WorldFusionRadio_com — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 15:21:12 GMT

Independent voices will be silenced by big corporations---listeners will have fewer choices, the artists won’t get any more money for the creativity, and the corporations will gain more money and control if the record label’s royalty increase is allowed to stand. Please help stop it.

Save Independent Internet Radio from Being Silenced

Independent voices will be silenced by big corporations---listeners will have fewer choices, the artists won’t get any more money for the creativity, and the corporations will gain more money and control if the record labels royalty increase is allowed to stand. Please help stop it.

For the past four years I have Webcast World Fusion Radio (WorldFusionRadio.com), bringing unique artists in the emerging genre of world fusion music to thousands of listeners world-wide. I have paid thousands of dollars in royalties to artists, several times more than I have made in revenue. Unfortunately, it’s not enough money for the big corporate music labels who want to more than triple the royalties paid to them (though not to the artists). Unless something is done, I and hundreds of other independent Webcasters will by May 14, 2007 have to shut down the radio stations we have spent years building.

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) wants to tax me and hundreds of other independent Webcasters out of business. The Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) has rubber stamped a royalty hike demanded by SoundExchange, a subsidiary of the RIAA. SoundExchange and the RIAA seem determined to destroy independent Internet radio and will do so unless there is an immediate public outcry big enough to reach Congress and persuade them to pass legislation to stop the royalty increase and save Internet radio.

To explain what all this means and how you can help, first I will explain what independent Webcasters do, and then what the royalties really are and the effect they will have.

What Webcasters Do
Everyone who runs an Internet radio station is an unpaid marketing rep for the record labels. We promote their music 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We promote their music to new listeners who go out and buy that music. We buy the music first before we play it because we seldom get the free CDs that the labels give to broadcast FM radio. So we make money for the record labels and the artists.

Not only do Webcasters increase music sales, we also pay to play music. Webcasters must pay ASCAP, BMI, SESAC (who distribute those royalties to artists), and SoundExchange (yes we already pay them royalties) for the reasonable and fair songwriting and publishing royalties that artists deserve. I have found that artists are appreciative of what we do as Webcasters and understand the importance and value of Internet radio. It is only the corporate label bureaucrats who don’t appreciate Webcasters. Which brings us to SoundExchange.

What SoundExchange Does
SoundExchange is a corporation set up by the RIAA (the major record labels: EMI Music Group, SONY BMG Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group, and Warner Music Group) to collect a new royalty on music recordings created by the Republican Congress in 1998. That new royalty is above and beyond the royalties long paid to songwriters and musicians. The new royalties are for the “sound recording copyright” of the song, i.e., the actual recording that is the CD track or MP3. This royalty must be paid by anyone who plays a song through a digital medium, usually the Internet.

The specific “sound recording copyright” is usually not owned by the songwriter or the artist, it is owned by the record label so the actual artists and performers usually do not share in this money. SoundExchange does not reveal to whom they distribute the royalty payments but many artists report not receiving a penny of it (www.boycott-riaa.com/facts/truth).

The royalty is specifically directed at Internet radio and is effectively an anti-competitive tax on Internet radio. It is NOT charged to broadcast FM radio (soundexchange.com/faq.html#a6). Satellite and cable radio corporations worked out a deal with SoundExchange to pay a substantially lower rate than what is charged to Internet radio.

All Webcasters, independent ones like World Fusion Radio and corporate ones like Yahoo and AOL, have dutifully paid the new royalties to SoundExchange, making millions of dollars of pure profit for the record labels. We have played by the rules and SoundExchange doesn’t dispute that. However, SoundExchange wants more money. SoundExchange falsely claims that Internet radio stations made $500 million in advertising last year. That claim is beyond ridiculous and has been proven to be inflated four to five times higher than actual revenues for the industry (webcastersunite.net/). Almost all of that revenue is earned by corporate Internet radio sites such as Yahoo and AOL from advertising and sales revenue they receive from the major record labels.

What the Royalty Increase Will Do
The RIAA knows that the royalty fees will kill all independent Webcasters. They know that if the CRB ruling is not reversed the number of Internet radio stations will go from several hundred to several dozen or even fewer.

How Draconian are the fees? Well, for starters, SoundExchange wants every single Webcaster to pay a retroactive $500 fee per channel for royalties for 2006. This is an additional fee for Webcasters who obeyed the existing royalty rules and already paid what they were asked to pay. So they will be paying royalties twice for 2006.

Then, starting on May 15, 2007, the rates shoot up astronomically! Under the old royalties, an Internet radio station paid about $500 a year in royalties (to all sources: BMI, ASCAP, SEASAC, SoundExchange) through LoudCity or $600 a year through Live365. Under the new royalty system, a Webcaster broadcasting 15 songs an hour to 500 listeners would pay SoundExchange $72,270 a year (www.live365.com/choice/sxreply.live), in addition to the other costs for artists royalties (remember, the SoundExchange royalties aren’t for the artists), hosting, bandwidth, and other costs. SoundExchange claims that an increase in fees from $500 to $72,000 a year is “fair value.”

Fair value?!? Independent Webcasters usually earn less than $1,000 a year because their only sources of revenue are free-will donations from listeners and maybe pay-per-click ads. Most independent Webcasters pay more than that in streaming costs and of course royalties.

How is it “fair value” to pay more than you earn? No industry in the world could survive with that formula. At World Fusion Radio, I already pay 187 percent of my revenue in royalties to artists and labels and I do better financially than most Webcasters. Like most Webcasters I do it for the love of music, not for profit. Yet SoundExchange wants to raise our royalties 600%-1200%.

An Internet Radio station will owe SoundExchange $155/listener/year just for licensing in 2007 and that amount will increase to $267/listener/year by 2010 (www.savenetradio.org/blog.html). Independent Webcasters will not be able to pass a fee that high onto their listeners. Independent Internet radio will die.

So why is the RIAA doing this? Control. The major labels have enjoyed an undercover relationship with radio for decades as the two colluded on who got played and who didn't. (Can you say “payola?”) The RIAA cannot control independent Webcasters. We decide what we play (that’s why you love us). Independent artists can come to us and promote their music on our stations, circumventing the record labels entirely. I believe that is the RIAA’s biggest fear.

What You Can Do
On May 15, 2007, hundreds of Internet radio stations will fall silent, unless there is an immediate and unmistakable public outcry to force Congress to change the unfair SoundExchange royalty increase.

Please go to www.savenetradio.org/act_now/index.html and take action. Share this letter with your friends and urge them to also take action. Together we can save Internet radio--not just World Fusion Radio, but all of the many wonderful Internet radio stations out there. SoundExchange says they want feedback from consumers, so write their Executive Director, John Simson at jsimson@soundexchange.com. Contact your favorite artists and labels and let them know how you feel.

Together we can save Internet radio; not just World Fusion Radio, but all of the many wonderful Internet radio stations out there.

What Artists/Musicians/Singers & Songwriters Can Do
Tell your label or licensing company that you value Internet radio and do not want to see RIAA tax it out of existence. Tell them that you oppose the ruling of the Copyright Royalty Board. Tell those at SoundExchange that they do not represent you and your interests. Spread the word to other artists/musicians/singers & songwriters Get more information at webcastersunite.net

What else can you, the Artists/Musicians/Singers & Songwriters do so that internet radio doesn't go the way of the dinosaur? Become vocal! How? you ask? If you have a MySpace site and a Webpage, there are banners, both animated and non-animated available for download at webcastersunite.net. All artists/musicians/singers & songwriters, both independent and well known, can make Public Service Announcements about how you value Internet Radio, a valuable source to discover new artists/musicians/singers & songwriters. If you decide to make a Public Service Announcement about this, they can be submitted at webcastersunite.net and then they will be made available for download to all the broadcasters at webcastersunite.net.

Every artist/musician/singer & songwriter was unknown at one time. To this day Internet Radio stations are eager to expose new talent, if they have to shut down because of the new royalty rates, this avenue of exposure will cease to exist, it will become increasingly difficult once again to get your music to the public. That is not something internet broadcasters want to see happen, for we know that today's independent artists are the popular names of tomorrow.

In Solidarity,

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

'Manifest' remix review on Rhapsody

radiohiro — Wed, 15 Nov 2006 00:53:15 GMT

How do you like that! : )

"Karsh Kale's excellent 2006 release, Broken English, showcased his love of many musical styles, so it's fitting that a remix EP of the opening track should feature similarly different interpretations. The most striking version comes from Desert Dwellers -- a gorgeous, lazy, dubbed-out rendering that will likely become a fixture on many future chill compilations. The Radiohiro mix also works well, keeping Kale's tablas up front along with an electro Trentemoller-esque sound to beef things up."

Taruna: World Fusion 3 - beautiful!

Mon, 27 Nov 2006 02:47:15 GMT

Here's a 24 minute sample:

http://www.shamanelectro.com/music/4/4_1.mp3

Taruna: World Fusion 3

Shaman Electro is proud to present the much anticipated “Taruna: World Fusion 3”, the final installation in the World Fusion Trilogy, available now at psyshop: http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/shn/shn1cd001.html

If you are already a fan of Taruna, aka Jürgen Eppinger, you have probably been waiting patiently for the newest album of psychedelic-ambient-electronica, rich with ethnic atmospheres from all over the globe – and if so, you will not be disappointed. If you are new to the global sounds of Taruna, you are in for an amazing voyage to new destinations…

Begin your journey with a glorious Sunrise in Varanasi - complete with original recordings on the streets of Varnasi, tabla, sarod and sarenghi samples, along with the sweet sounds of bells, xylophones, female vocals and a mixture of psychedelic synths and jazzy influences….Then allow yourself to wind through The Dogon Mystery, find an Invisible Word, glide through Shamballa and Listen to the Shamans of the Amazon rainforest. Each song carries you deep into the heart of a new place within yourself, wraps you in the sights, sounds and smells of faraway lands, and calls you to awaken to the beauty of all of humanity.

World Fusion 3 showcases rich, textured instruments from all over the globe: sitars, xylophones, flutes, tablas, bongos, shakers, Tibetan singing bowls, Chinese Zeng harp, Javanese gongs, Balinese Rejong Gamelan (the list goes on an on and on) mixed with thick bass lines, beautiful ethnic melodies and psychedelic synths to create globally rich atmospheres of feeling, depth and dance….all while delivering only the most positive of messages:

This incredible power inside the brain is ready to be activated…
Respect Nature, Respect Life…
There’s an invisible world around you…
There is going to have to be a radical transformation…transformation…transformation
The human future will be designed on how conscious we are able to make ourselves…

Travel through the streets of India, climb the Himalayas of Tibet, sing with the choirs of Bali, visit African villages in prayer, chant with long forgotten tribes, soar with the eagles and walk with the jaguars (and meet Timothy Leary and Terrence McKenna along the way!)…World Fusion 3 will guide your mind into a global perspective of enlightening authenticity…through a balance of male and female, yin and yang…to the possibilities of self and world… Awaken to the world around you…

World Fusion 3: an aural global guide…

"Music is an International Language beyond Borders." - Jürgen Eppinger

Year End Sub Swara - Sub Swara vs. The Glitch Mob::Sound Clash

dhruva — Fri, 17 Nov 2006 02:31:22 GMT

Ya'll saw Ana Sia rip it up at Kollektiv, some of you may have caught Ooah at Sub Swara 010. Now we got Kraddy, edIT, Boretta and Souleye on the mic bringin' it all the way live for the full on wreckage!

Join us on Friday, December 1st for Sub Swara014, as we round out an astounding year with an east-west sound clash of epic proportions:

SUB SWARA vs. GLITCH MOB

In the home corner -- The Sub Swara posse weighs in with the hard-hitting trio of Dhruva, Sunder, and Haj, heavy-weight MC Juakali and Pictureman/Skip Intro on visual attack. 'International Bass Fueled Beats and Breaks', with live tablas, turntablism, Ragga vocals, and deep visual mixology. A barrage of genre defying sonics spanning crushing breaks, chubby dubstep, nasty grime, mid-tempo glitch, digi-dancehall, and much more big speaker biz.

In the visitor’s corner – The Glitch Mob comes out swinging, as individual superstars edIT, Kraddy, and Boretta join forces, and freestyle maestro Souleye enters the fracas with his lyrical jujitsu. These boys have been straight tearing up the west coast underground circuit with their crunked-out glitch-injected hip-hop, massiv dancehall riddims, & lush IDM. After running things at Burning Man this summer the Glitch Mob is poised and primed to make their very live and highly anticipated NYC debut.

We aint’ playin’ around. Not a bit...

Pre-sale tickets are up NOW ( www.BrownPaperTickets.com/event/8616 )– super advance $10 cheapies are available till Friday, November 17. After that, pre-sales are at $15 through mid day Dec. 1.

There won’t be a Sub Swara event in NYC in January, so be sure to come out and get your fix. Look out for us in Los Angeles on New Year's Eve throwing down with the Space Island crew. Keep it locked. We will be back in NYC with thunder in '07 as we resume First Fridays at Element with another massive line-up on Feb. 2nd.

Deets….

You guys totally rock , always deliver and NEVER disappoint! If you aren't here in Chi-town our resident DJs Radiohiro and Warp brought us this past weekend not only Talvin Singh, not only Karsh Kale but also Anoushka Shankar with Karsh Kale! Talvin rocked us up, down, sideways and backwards with a wall shakin' back breakin' show! I missed the Anoushka/Karsh gig in the park but heard great things about it and of course, Karsh at the after party was PHEE-nomenal just like he always is.

Thank you R&W for working so hard to bring massive entertainment to Chicago. I love you guys!

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

dubgabriel — Wed, 07 Jun 2006 11:09:12 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!!

DEEP SPACE AND BROOKLYN MASSIVE

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.!!

Lementality — Wed, 15 Feb 2006 06:21:31 GMT

37 years ago, a festival began. it started with a group of friends that wanted to gather together and have a good time on memorial day weekend. now its grown to about 200-300 people (all friends of friends of friends, etc.). its pretty lowkey with no commercialization. this year will be my first year attending. my friends and i have decided this year to bring a soundsystem so that we can extend everyones perception of music that much further. we will have turntables and will be mixing drum and bass, acid techno, breaks, whatever anyone decides to bring. we will have open decks so feel free to bring your vinyls.. my friends band will also be playing live jungle, dub, breaks, trance.. also there is a stage so if you are an acoustical musician, thats welcome as well. come and share with everyone who you are. its a camping venue so bring proper equipment (tents, etc).... ill be updating this site with more info about the exact location and times, etc.

no major artists are really expected so dont expect anything of that nature. buttttttttt we are all who we are and that in itself is pure energy. come and experience this reality :)

much love and respect.

Clandestino Festival

Aleksander — Mon, 16 Jan 2006 01:59:43 GMT

Looking for artists for future editions of the Clandestino Festival, Göteborg Sweden (see below for info in English). The next (4th one) will take place 8-11 June 2006. Please keep me informed about what projects you have going on. See also www.bwanaclub.org for international DJ-event in Beijing in May 2006.

Many thanks

Aleks

In co-operation with a number of cultural institutions and artistic and intellec-tual networks, the non-profit organisation BwC (Bwana Club) has organised the Clandestino Festival annually at various venues in Gothenburg, Swedensince 2003. The festival features music from the urban cultural environments created outof the waves of global migration during the late 20th century. Some very progressive, conscious and engaging groups have taken part in the previouseditions of festival including Fun^da^mental (UK), Talvin Singh (UK), Mala Rodriguez (Spain), Frèdèric Galliano & The African Divas (France), GnawaDiffusion (France), Duoud (France), State of Bengal (UK), Badmarsh & UK Apache (UK), Clotaire K (France/Lebanon), Fathy Salama & Karima Naït(Egypt/Algeria), Bandish Projekt (India), Baul Shilpi (Bangladesh), Kamilya Jubran (Palestine), The Mighty Zulu Nation (South Africa), Buk Bak (Ghana),Nazarenes (Sweden), Recycler (France), Ali Boulo Santo (Senegal), Loüis 2000 (France), Lipitone (France), Nettle (Spain), Dj Rupture (USA), Zion Train (UK),Jiva (Sri Lanka), Midaircondo (Sweden), MJM Propaganda (Sweden), Johannes Anyury (Sweden), U.K.O.N. (Sweden), VJ Bertranol (France), among others. Besides its manifest musical content, the Clandestino Festival has a lot tooffer in the artistic, philosophical and political arenas as well. It includes penetrating discussions (Clandestino Talks), poetry readings, art exhibi-tions, film screenings and various other forms of event that put cultural issues into critical focus. John Hutnyk, Lez Henry, Aki Nawaz, RaminderKaur, Michael Drewett and many others have participated in the Clandestino Talks. Clandestino Festival provokes us to think about multiculturalism in a newway, beyond the ‘folklorification’, and contrasts the current preoccupation with seeing other cultures as different and exotic. The festival relates,therefore, not only to recent migration movements and the multicultural diversity that characterises many of Europe segregated urban areas. Italso strives to challenge the most common forms of expression used to represent cultural differences, and highlight the consequences of theserepresentations for migrants. Through progressive dj-sessions, electronic and acoustic concerts, literaryand visual events BwC has, both theoretically and practically, developed a critique of contemporary forms of colonial classification relating to the ma-nufacture of culture in Western countries. The 4th Edition will take place 8-11 June 2006 in Gothenburg, Sweden.

SUB SWARA RESIDENTS:
Dhruva | Sunder | Haj

VISUAL DJ: Pictureman (Insomnia Projects)

Smithmonger Bio:

Smithmonger was originally a professional trumpet player who trained at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music before turning his attention to underground dance music. He moved to London 5 years ago and has turned heads with past releases on wicked labels such as Loaded, TCR, 10Kilo, Hooj Choons, and Bushwakka's Oblong.

In the last three years, it's safe to say everyone from Coxy to Boy George has had a Smithmonger tune in their box and Monger has officially made his entry to the big leagues. The year's started off with a massive Breaks release on Boombox in January called 'Hey'. It was caned by the likes of Lee Coombs and Atomic Hooligan. This was followed by a stormer on 10kilo called 'Seen it all Before' which went in with a bullet at No. 1 in DJ Mag's Breaks chart and No. 18 on the UK Cool Cuts Chart. Oblong released 'Get it Oun' in May to huge reactions (Number 3 in Carl Cox's June chart) and Paul has just signed another Tech-House project to Visitor in Belgium. Ministry of Sound released a wicked breaks 12'' in August (No 6 in the breaks chart) and Paul has come on board with Fingerlickin' Records and Signed a 12'' for their new imprint 'VA Breaks'. Called 'Buxom', this debuted at number 7 in the breaks chart. The year is indeed looking good. He's just remixed The Propeller Heads, Rennie Pilgrem and Robert Owins and with numerous DJ dates, the future is bright for Smithmonger.

Zakhm and Siraiki at Sub Swara 004 -- Thursday Oct. 13 NYC

dhruva — Tue, 11 Oct 2005 15:52:34 GMT

Fresh off last week's massive Freekin' the Ultra show, the Sub Swara crew is back in effect this Thursday at the Sully and with some very special guests...

Thursday October 13 -- Sub Swara 004 -- Sullivan Room NYC
www.subswara.com

Featuring Special Guests:
Zakhm (Kollektiv, Mutiny)
Siraiki (Mutiny, Sound Mongrel)

Sub Swara is proud to welcome two artists who were instrumental in laying the revolutionary foundation of the Asian Underground Scene in New York. Zakhm and Siraiki were both residents (and Siraiki the co-founder) of the legendary Mutiny club night and continue to break new ground and blaze brilliant artistic paths worldwide.

Now a resident at Kollektiv (also featuring Karsh Kale, Janaka Selekta, DK aka Bollygirl NYC, and Dimmsummer), Zakhm is pushing groundbreaking world electronica sounds nationwide with Kollektiv residencies in New York, Washington D.C., San Diego, and Chicago. Alongside Karsh Kale, the MIDIval Punditz, and DJ Cheb i Sabbah, Zakhm was also a core member of the Asian Massive Tour, whose companion album (on Six Degrees Records) featured Zakhm's floor stomping burner, Insaan.

Siraiki launched the sound of the Asian Underground in NYC in 1997 with the Mutiny Club Night, whose residents included DJ Rekha, Navdeep, Zakhm, and Anju. He is also an accomplished filmmaker, whose incendiary film, Mutiny: Asians Storm British Music, documents the rise of South Asian Electronic Music and its indelible socio-political impact in the UK during the 1990s.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to see these two visionary artists hit the decks on the same night at Sub Swara 004. SS residents Dhruva, Sunder, and Haj will be holding things down as usual. Keep it locked!

KARSH KALE:
Indian percussionist, composer, producer and DJ, Karsh Kale is primarily known for his tabla (hand drums of India) and electronic percussion playing skills. Born of Indian parents, Kale grew up in the U.S., but was equally influenced by music of the East and West, resulting in the creation of a highly original style — where electronic dance and meets Indian folk. Kale’s sound is a hybrid of shuffling breakbeats, tabla-fused Indian rhythms, lush vocals and strings—a vibrant mash-up of global musical styles and modern drum programming from one of New York’s acclaimed remixers. Karsh is also a featured member of Tabla Beat Science, with Bill Laswell and Zakir Hussain but has also worked with or remixed such artists as Herbie Hancock, DJ Spooky, Ming & FS, DJ Logic, Sound Tribe Sector 9, Cheb I Sabbah, Sting, Paul Oakenfold, Talvin Singh, MIDIval PunditZ, and Plastilina Mosh among many.

BOMBAY BEATBOX:
Chicago’s Bombay Beatbox monthly event focuses on the best in futuristic world groove, incorporating Indian, Arabic, African, and world with electronica elements that cross continents and span genres. Resident DJs Warp and Radiohiro have shared the stage with some of the most respected names in world music, from Tabla Beat Science, Femi Kuti, Baaba Maal, Rachid Taha, Khaled, Cheb I Sabbah, Zap Mama, and many more.
