In pairing with L.A. producer Gaslamp Killer, Gonjasufi has found a powerful outlet for his otherworldly strain of singing. Together they’ve created A Sufi and a Killer, one of the most fascinating slabs of hallucinogenic head-nod music to arise from Southern California’s post-hip-hop vanguard. Unlike the digital bleeps and squelches of SoCal contemporaries FlyLo and Nosaj Thing, however, Gaslamp Killer and Gonjasufi draw from their hip-hop background to create an LP that could as easily fit on the Stones Throw roster as well as it does IDM-centric Warp. The beats knock, but for every moment of b-boy-friendly atmosphere, there’s another moment– or a simultaneous one– that makes like 21st century acid rock.

Gonjasufi’s vocals are both haunting and haunted, coolly assertive yet frequently fixated on mortal matters, and they bleed vividly through Gaslamp’s corroded analog wall of zero-fi psychedelic noise. The results are stark: Brooding, bad-trip laments (“Kobwebz”), a doo-wop number punctuated by spacey twang (“Duet”), a warping of the blues (“Ageing”). Even the more straightforward stuff has a grimy quality to it, particularly the heavy soul of “Change”, the bar-jazz tension of “Advice”, and the woozy “Kowboys & Indians” with its Eastern vocals looped against a rust-covered revision of club rap beats circa 2003.

There’s a deep rooted sound to Teebs’ music that connects with our everyday surroundings. It spotlights emotional corners and builds warmth over the listener. Initially, I was drawn into Teebs’ world when I discovered his artwork. Rich in color, complex, yet leaving enough breathing room for its subjects to shine. I guess the same can be said for his production…

“Hey, so Victorian-dressing electronic guy Daedelus has a new mini-album coming out on Flying Lotus’s Brainfeeder label.

Titled Righteous Fists of Harmony, it marks the first release on the new global Brainfeeder – which basically means they now have an international distribution deal – and preludes Daedelus’s forthcoming album for Ninja Tune, Bespoke.

Says FlyLo, “Daedelus was one of the first people I met in the LA scene, he hardly knew me or my sound at all and invited me into his home and shared stories and music with me when I was trying to find my way out here. He’s been such a great and inspiring friend ever since. I feel like with this album we’re close to coming full circle.”

Next up on Brainfeeder are albums from Lorn, Samiyam and Gaslamp Killer, plus a label compilation. ‘Til then, check out this track from the Daedelus and start getting excited.”

—————————————————————————————

In this release for Flying Lotus’ up-and-coming label Brainfeeder,
Daedelus presents a soundtrack-of-sorts to the Boxer Rebellion. What,
you ask, could make such ancient history an inspiration for modern
electronics? Well, Daedelus has found a strange relevance to our
modern malady in these epic events of long ago…

After seventy years of China’s opium-related subjugation by Queen
Victoria and her allies, a force of resistance fighters — termed
“Boxers” by the British — rose to the challenge in 1898. Calling
themselves “The Righteous Fists of Harmony,” this secret society of
martial artists felt they held magical powers: they believed
themselves bulletproof, able to fly, and capable of raising the dead
(who would then fight alongside them). And so began the brief Boxer
Rebellion; three years later 100,000 Boxers had fallen, their magic
helpless against the cutting-edge machinery of war. The British
prevailed only to face ultimate defeat, as their empire rapidly
declined.

Daedelus endeavors to compose a requiem for the end — of beliefs, of
lives, and of an era. This elegy for a bygone battle sheds light on
our own contemporary conundrum: will our faith in modernity be our
downfall? Are we blinded by this age of wonders, doomed to be
destroyed by our ingenious inventions? Although Daedelus’ music has
always juxtaposed organic and electronic elements, they war as never
before on “Righteous Fists of Harmony,” a portrait of a tumultuous era
that came crashing to a close.

Ras G is a commanding force in Los Angeles and a classic example of what artistry is. Always pushing his production limits and bending his sound to a point that really make you believe he’s from outer space. His live shows have a reputation of blowing out sound systems and shaking walls to the point of deterioration.

Ras G, a defining figure of a new movement while in a class/world all on his own.

This exclusive set for BTS is only a taste of the destruction he can bring to speakers…Take cover.

The 2008 cult classic from Durlin Lurt now has a home via Leaving Records. Sounding more fun and filthier than ever, the conceptual work spans the alphabet (twenty six tracks with many familiar guests) sampling you-know-who through an experimental hip-hop lens that is unique and absurdly organic.

THE MOTHERFUCKER OF INVENTION

The Gaslamp Killer’s Hectic, Eclectic Decksterity

by DAVE SEGAL

A sunny September Sunday in Volunteer Park: Parents and their offspring commingle with the hardcore electronic-music heads at Decibel Festival’s climactic day in 2009. Onstage, a skinny, bespectacled, bushy-Jewfro’d DJ is getting hectic on the decks. Sporadically he bellows into the mic, mid-mix, big-upping and identifying the music he’s spinning, peppering his informative asides with liberal usages of “motherfucker” and other terms of endearment for the throngs of revelers who are scarfing up this maniac’s selections and exhortations. Delicate, youthful ears are being violated with vicious profanities and sounds that are both sacred and filthy, old and new, obscure and familiar, eclectic and psychedelic. After his set, which was the best of the fest for sheer showmanship and content, the crowd mobs him for GLK mix CDs and stickers—and to finish his whiskey and maybe to give him drugs. He leaves the stage CD-less and sticker-less. (Possession of illicit substances could not be confirmed.) A mother fucking phenomenon is launched.

The Gaslamp Killer (aka 27-year-old L.A.-based William Bensussen; henceforth GLK) used to include the intensifier “Motherfucking” in his stage name; now he mostly relegates it to conversation, stage banter, and Twitter posts, for which he exclusively uses CAPS LOCK. Even if he’s not billed as such anymore, the attitude behind the handle remains in full force.

GLK began DJing in San Diego’s Gaslamp district at age 17, playing to military personnel, surfer dudes, assorted meatheads, and the ladies who love ‘em—none of whom could fathom the value of what he was laying on their thick domes. In this hostile environment, GLK developed a combative spirit, if you’ll allow an understatement. For some reason, the area’s promoters kept booking GLK, even as he proudly, defiantly cleared dance floors with his “instrumental psych dirty beats.”

A self-proclaimed “neurotic Scorpio Jew” of Turkish, Lebanese, and Mexican descent, GLK initially wanted to participate in San Diego’s punk-rock scene, but he couldn’t find anyone on his wavelength and his bass-playing stank.

“Then I started listening to rap shit, and then I went to a rave and saw one DJ controlling the whole crowd like a one-man band,” GLK writes via e-mail while stuck in “worstfuxkintrafficjamever” on his way to a gig in Boston; such is his business now that he had to madly peck out his responses to The Stranger in these cramped, pressurized circumstances. “That’s when I knew what I wanted to do. So I started buyin’ records and practicing on my homie’s turntables until I saved up enough to buy my own and practiced every fucking day. The rest is history.”

A significant part of that history happens at L.A.’s Low End Theory, a weekly confab of audio research and development held at the Airliner, where GLK is an integral figure. There he swaps knowledge and inspiration before large crowds with DJ Nobody, Daddy Kev, D-Styles, Flying Lotus, Ras G, Daedelus, and other future-freaking beat scientists who have made SoCal one of the world’s most fertile post-hiphop/post-dubstep hotbeds. For the last three years, GLK has been able to focus on his DJing and production skills, and the woodshedding and frequent gigging have paid huge dividends, to the point where he’s now poised to upstage Prefuse 73 on their upcoming tour.

GLK’s DJ sets stand out from others’ due to their strange juxtapositions and rapid collision of styles and the wide range of genres he covers, which are bolstered by turntablist tricks and off-the-cuff commentary. Rampant diversity and seemingly illogical transitions reign, but rather than sounding clunky and dilettantish, GLK’s shows dazzle through his incredible reflexes and knack for making ostensibly absurd segues coalesce into the most galvanizing music-history lessons—and up-to-the-minute new-schooling—imaginable. After you peep a GLK performance, witnessing a jock perfectly beat-match in one mode all night, no matter how great the track selection, will lose some of its luster. His antics and witty, vulgar pronouncements fuel audiences to outrageous levels of excitement—and it all comes off neither as pandering nor cheesy, even as he serves as his own hype man. “I always try to connect with my crowd,” GLK humbly notes.

Shockingly, he can’t really pinpoint the source of his greatness. “My evolution is what it is and it continues to evolve… I don’t know where it comes from or where it will go next.”

What can be ascertained after a few minutes of any GLK gig, though, is a superhuman energy level that’s matched by extensive knowledge of (deep breath) old and new hiphop, psych rock from many nations, funk, soul, jazz, IDM, jungle, dubstep, and whatever hot-shit underground-club mutations are springing up tomorrow. The man is omni voracious in his consumption and absorption of music, which explains why preeminent UK crate-digger Andy Votel booked GLK at his B-Music club night and enlisted him to mix All Killer, a CD compendium blending tracks from his Finders Keepers label’s first 20 releases.

“It has been a blessing to run with Andy Votel and the B-music/Finders Keepers/Twisted Nerve crew,” GLK says. “The music they are rereleasing and playing on a regular basis blows my mind and many minds, [and will continue to do so] for many years to come. Big up to my man Cherrystones for putting me on to so much dope music, as well. Doing [All Killer] was a blast, and I hope they ask me to mix the next 20 releases in the near future.”

In interviews and onstage, GLK comes off as something of a crusader and educator for great, esoteric music, but he also attends to the more practical function of “rocking a party,” with bonus articulate body language. He describes his style as “educational with a touch of rock ‘n’ roll energy and eclectic exorcisms. My rules, no industry standards apply.”

No empty boast, that. But lest you think GLK’s simply a cocky, egocentric mofo (which he is, to an extent, but justifiably so), he bestows credit to the aforementioned Low End Theory night as a turbo booster to his aesthetics and artistic growth.

“The Low End Theory is a movement,” he states. “It’s a place where artists can truly express their full artistic selves on and off stage. Low End Theory has more support than almost any other musical/artistic movement of its kind and of its time. It has changed me and my friends’ styles a number of times over and influenced the world. I would not be the artist or the man I am without the Low End Theory.”

What you will experience at a Gaslamp Killer show is a disc jockey who works strictly in CAPS LOCK mode, his expletives flying over the dopest tracks in multiple genres, slammed together with savage grace, as the most luxuriant white-boy ‘fro since the MC5’s Rob Tyner furiously bobs. In ways that you’ve never heard before, this motherfucker will kick out the jams.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone
as we’re approaching this new year, I felt it was time to let go of some things that have been gathering dust. Some old things, and some new things, I tried to pick out tracks that I know yall haven’t heard yet so there should be surprises around every turn.

can’t believe i’ve been making tracks for over 10 years now..That said, there’s so much to learn still.

I hope you all enjoy this mix. Thanks to the Gaslamp Killer for doing an incredible job on this.

Can’t wait for you all to hear my album ‘Cosmogramma’ coming out May 4th 2010 on Warp Records.

Enjoy

Back before “beat music” operated as the umbrella term encompassing the Low End Theory sound, there was Daedelus, the Santa Monica-born musician known for breaching genre constraints and for a set of stellar muttonchops that could humiliate Martin Van Buren. Hovering at the nebulous nexus between hip-hop, drum and bass, jazz and musique concrete, the musician, born Alfred Weisberg-Roberts, forged a singular aesthetic back when break beats and B-Boy poses still ruled the Los Angeles underground.

Only eight years into his career, the prolific producer already has released 10 solo albums, more than a dozen EPs and miscellaneous projects, plus full-length collaborations with prolix Project Blowed emcee Bus Driver, his wife Laura Darlington (under the moniker the Long Lost) and Dublab doyen Frosty (Adventure Time). Somehow, he found time to remix everyone from Wax Tailor to Sa-Ra, while amassing the finest collection of Edwardian coats this side of Roger Daltrey circa “A Quick One, While He’s Away.”

As a sign of the respect he commands, his output has been scattered across electronic music’s finest labels, including venerable indie imprints Plug Research, Alpha Pup, Brainfeeder and Ninja Tune. With the Low End Theory’s increased notoriety, Daedelus’ own profile has ascended like a tangent curve. In particular, a recent set on Mary Anne Hobbs’ influential BBC 1Xtra program further cemented his place in the upper echelon of Los Angeles beat-makers. Rocking a special extended Thanksgiving set at the Lincoln Heights club, he spoke to Pop and Hiss about his new label, how he got involved with the Low End Theory and the Boxer Rebellion.

How did you first fall into the Low End Theory orbit?

I’d known [Low End Theory co-founder Daddy] Kev for a long time. He actually used to run an amazing drum and bass and hip-hop night in L.A. called Concrete Jungle, that I’d sort of been shut out of because they only allowed certain members. I really wanted to be a part of it, but I was just a young wannabe drum and bass DJ.

I was an outsider who was interested in fairly weird stuff and I met Kev there and it was a long process of getting involved in the greater L.A. scene of beats or glitch hop, whatever you want to call it. Prior to Low End Theory, I was going to a night with all those guys called Sketchbook, which was a sort of a forerunner. The great thing about the club is that everyone is a fan of each other and it’s filled with awesome people who really love music. It’s not just beat heads, it’s psych-rock kids, prog people, funk fans, all the lost children.

Your main label is usually Ninja Tune, but you’re releasing on EP on Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder imprint at the beginning of next year. Is there any specific theme or new sound that you gravitated toward on this effort?

It’s actually based on the events of the Boxer Rebellion. I’ve been a fan of Victoriana for a long time — it was simultaneously a very peaceful time and one of expansion and war. The Boxer uprising was one of the last gasps of the British Empire and signaled the end of the 19th century. The long and short of it is that the British had forced the Chinese to keep doing opium, which triggered the opium wars about 60 years earlier. And around 1900, a group of anti-imperialist, anti-missionary “Boxers” tried to throw the British out. But what’s crazy is that the Boxers thought that they had magic powers and that they could fly and survive based off their knowledge of martial arts. But of course, they were slaughtered by guns. I was drawn to the fact that there wasn’t a soundtrack for it — not that there should be a soundtrack to massacre, but I’m a fan of epic stuff. Besides, when was the last time a war was fought with magic?

What specifically is it about Victorian culture and history that interests you so much?

It’s the idea of civility marred by acts of terrible violence. I’m also into soundtracks. I’m always trying to do them for stuff that hasn’t been made yet. It’s an event without the underpinnings, and also Brainfeeder is such an open place — I couldn’t do this weird of an idea for just any label. They’re taking chances on a lot of interesting stuff right now, from ambient to beat-heavy stuff.

You also recently started your own Magical Properties label this year. Was that something you’d always wanted to do?

I’ve been on enough labels to know the pains of it all. Plus, the wash and slosh of the current media and environment tends to lead to things being overlooked, so I was definitely hesitant. It wasn’t something I resisted, but it wasn’t something I pursued either. Then it became more and more obvious that there was this Catch-22 in the industry: to get on a label, you have to be in a situation where you can release things or get some sort of hype. It’s almost impossible to exist out of nowhere or without some machinery. So, basically, I started it to put on artists whom I thought were overlooked. Jogger are making amazing music, and I wanted to give them a mouthpiece where they could get in a position to talk to other labels where everyone will benefit.

It’s getting near the end of the year. Are there any tracks or albums that stand out as favorites?

2000F’s “You Don’t Know What Love Is,” is totally different. It’s like a Zapp and Roger track from the future, released on Hyberdub. Not to shamelessly self-promote, but I loved the Jogger record. And of course all the beat stuff that come out of L.A.: Nosaj Thing, Flying Lotus, Matthewdavid, Ras G. I really loved the latter’s “Penny’s Confession.” I don’t listen to all that much new music, though. This year, I probably listened to samba, bossa nova and library music the most.

I’ve always wanted to see this music experienced in a way more focused form than your traditional club vibe.
So we’re starting Brainfeeder Sessions at the downtown independent.
Amazing audio/visual madness with films and Ideas.
Starting Sept 6th. *First Sunday of every month*

7pm-11pm
all ages

Amazed to see this happen.

See you there!
