Sub Swara Podcast 12

Yes Gang!

As we’re back in town from a few crazy weeks of shows, from Hawaii to NYC to Colorado to Northern California– I figured now was as good a time as ever to share some of the wicked music that’s come our way, especially since we missed the May podcast.  Too much travel!

and thus I offer this quick jaunt through some summery vibes,starting with Pariah’s “Detroit Falls,” which has been rocking our world so much that it was time to represent; it moves into a cut from our West coast bredren Heyoka’s new record, Cosmic Boogie.  Up next is the Balkan/Cumbia/Israeli/Brooklynite jam “Balkumbia” from Balkan Beat Box, followed by our World Cup-approved (!) remix.  Grab it for free here at the website!

Taking a trip on an afrobeat flex, we present Part 1 of Falty DL’s unreleased “Mean Streets” project.  Groove galore, which feeds into some new-school/old-school pressure courtesy of Kush Arora feat. dancehall DJ extraordinare, Mega Banton flexing strong on Kush’s “Spanish Wall Street” riddim.  Brooklyn Afrobeat takes the stage with a classic cut from Anitbalas, followed by a new single from Bowly on Berkane Sol and Mista Men’s “Lengthy Riddim” on Bass Tourist.  Rounding it up we’ve got San Francisco’s DJ G with the inimitable “Time is the Fire.”
