Well, hell . . .
Posted in Bass Guitar, Local Music, Music in General on May 28th, 2008 by RyanSo I’m picking up some CDs at a local record store (special order placed on Memorial Day took two days to arrive - these guys are geniuses) when I notice it. Less than a few days after FezFest ‘08 (pictures of which can be found here, courtesy of Nuvo and Krissy Bertram), I run across “Sitar Beat! - Indian Style Heavy Funk, Vol. 1.”
From 2006.
Truly, there is nothing new underneath the sun. Serge Gainsbourg even makes a few appearances. But as far as I can tell, no fezzes.
So that’s what I’m digging on right now. That and new stuff from Esperanza Spaulding, Santogold, King’s X, and The Blacksoil Project. And the sitar stuff? Yeah, it’s the heavy funk. So there you go.
