check out knaan’s new video called Somalia. He grew up in Somalia until his family was able to obtain US visas to escape the war and its violence. Also check out his hardcore video. It is great to see him call out the hardcore wannabies from the US with ‘what hardcore? really? are you hardcore?’ the alexander dumases need to be called out. In general, we the people in the US need to have our priveleged properous spoiled asses called out. both videos are a good start.

Ya Es Tiempo

Ya es tiempo to start posting so it seems appropriate to start with Alla. Chicanos from Chicago, they want to change pop music specifically psychedelic pop music. I love them for trying. They are armed with their sonic manifesto. What is not to like? The music is lush, warm and with electronics – just how I like it. I haven’t checked out all the songs but I like Un Dia Otra Noche. Alla just performed at the LAMC in NYC and did live performance on KCRW. Here is their video for Un Dia Otra Noche. They play with string section. guaw. For more & better sound, check out their myspace:  es tiempo.

Video won’t play? Here is the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=evdMhU7grpw
