supported by

cultureglut Kool A.D. puts out so much material each year, it's nearly impossible to keep up, but based on the title of this album, i felt compelled to check this out. this album is excellent political catharsis. philosophically sound with loose flows, hysterical prose, and proper non sequiturs.

"The audience comes last." —Rick Rubin Favorite track: I'M A VIRGO RISING.

the First Fist to Make Contact When We Dap

supported by 4 fans who also own “ART IN THE AGE OF MECHANICAL REPRODUCTION”

Why don't you take a look around. Why don't you take a look around you. Up there, you see that up there? Don't it... Don't it...don’t it seem like we gain so much, from art that transmutes the kaleidoscope of being into an interference pattern of emotion? I’ll get up when I have to. Naomi Alterman

Universal Beings
by Makaya McCraven

supported by 4 fans who also own “ART IN THE AGE OF MECHANICAL REPRODUCTION”

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
