The Whitefield Brothers - Earthology

The Whitefield Brothers – Earthology
(CD/LP/Digital) Now Again/Stones Throw NA5047, 2010-01-11

While In The Raw's hypnotic, defiantly psychedelic funk music was grounded in the great musical traditions of both America and Africa, Earthology finds the Brothers infusing their funk with musical traditions that span the globe. With this new album, The Whitefield Brothers - and a multitude of guests ranging from vocalists Edan, Mr. Lif, Bajka, Percee P and MED to musicians from Antibalas, El Michels Affair, Quantic, Poets of Rhythm and the Dap-Kings - blend together what might seem to be disparate music into global-psychedelic-jazz using the fierce funk their fans have grown to love.

Menahan Street Band - The Wolf b/w Bushwick Lullaby

Menahan Street Band - The Wolf b/w Bushwick Lullaby
(7") Daptone Records DAP-1045, 2009-04-08

The Menahan Street Band challenges the Budos Band to a duel with The Wolf, the fast-paced ethio tinged number that has recently served as the opening song of their on-stage appearances. The song evokes unique imagery in the mind - part sun-drenched ethiopian desert, part frozen northern tundra. This song is dedicated to Joe 'The Wolf' Colgan for building the new Dunham Studios.Without telling Michels and Movshon, Brenneck put a little something special in their gin and tonics. The result is Bushwick Lullaby, a highly syncopated slow placed number entirely indicative of the participant's mind-state at the time of recording. Next time you put your kids to sleep, why not sing them the 'Bushwick Lullaby'?
