Gonjasufi - The Caliph's Tea Party
(CD/LP/Digital) Warp Records WARPCD206/WARPLP206, 2010-10-04
It's a tricky thing, re-working a completely unique and peerless piece of music. It is made even trickier when the personality behind the original music is so vivid and otherworldly that it is almost sure to continue to cast it's long shadow over whatever new form is chosen for it. Of course the questions of whether or not to remix Gonjasufi's classic A Sufi and A Killer arose, but with that voice and those songs, it was never going to fail. Of course the fact that Gonja had made fans out of quite a few incredibly talented artists didn't hurt either. So, The Caliph's Tea Party was slowly summoned to life...

The Gaslamp Killer - Death Gate EP
(promo CD/Download) Brainfeeder BFCD013P/BF013, 2010-10-11
Death Gate marks the return of Los Angeles-based producer and DJ William Bensussen, otherwise known as The Gaslamp Killer. The new five track EP, on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder label, is a dark, bleak creation that is unmistakably part of the GLK's universe. Describing the record, he states "Death Gate is about exploring the places between life and death, and the shattering of inner journeys that wait for us there." Flying Lotus further describes it as "…An inspiring progression from his last, as well as a breath of raw air in a world of clean, safe hip hop."

Various - Dublab: Echo Expansion
(CD/LP) Porter Records PRCD4033, 2009-08-17
In September 2007 dublab launched the Echo Expansion tour. For two weeks the tour traveled through Europe sharing future roots music with excited ears. To commemorate this experience an extremely limited edition twelve inch featuring new songs from eight of the artists on tour was released; including tracks by Flying Lotus, Dntel and Blank Blue. This vinyl only release sold out in a flash, so after returning home it was decided to continue expanding. Eight new tunes have been added from artists who embarked on the Echo Expansion tour or supported it from the home front and now Porter Records is releasing the compilation on limited edition CD and LP. Put this album on and experience a vibrant music collective expanding through echoes.

The Gaslamp Killer feat. Kutmah - I Spit On Your Grave
(CD + 7" boxset) Obey Records, 2008-04
Info :
This mix from LA's purveyor of the abstract hip-hop beat shows GLK's masterful skill of segueing curdled, gooey electronic, bass heavy electronic hip-hop instrumentals, weird psychedelia derived from esoteric Anatolian rock and jazz and funk from Ethiopia and the Middle East. Strange, un-easy listening born from the most heavy, demonic, hip-hop sludge. 'I Spit On Your Grave' joins the dots between the eccentric production of Madlib, John Carpenter's soundtracks, J-Dilla and Warp's Flying Lotus. Watch out for further collaborations between GLK and Flying Lotus and co-production on the forthcoming Gonja Sufi LP...
