Shafiq Husayn - Shafiq En' A-Free-Ka - Rapster/Plug Research

Since september 2009 i had a Shafiq podcast running in my 'everywhere-where-i'm going' playlist. Untill today i didn't checked out his last year's debut Album En' A-Free-Ka, dunno why, but now that i've check it out i'm a fan.

Debut album means not he's not new to the scene, because he most known for his productions behind Erykah Badu and the Sa-Ra creative Partners collective. As a third of the Sa-Ra Creative Partners, Shafiq Husayn has produced some of the most acclaimed nu-soul spirit music of recent times, lending his sought-after cosmic vision to albums from John Legend, Erykah Badu and even Ice T.

Now striding out on his own for a solo production - 'Shafi En' A-Free-Ka' - he can set the immediate commercial pressures of the trio aside for an album of free-spirited astral journeying, taking underground MC legend Count Bass D, vocalist Bilal Oliver and members of Build An Ark and Sa-Ra along for the experience. Shafiq takes a lot of cues from Sun-Ra over the course of the album, guiding him through seventeen tracks of jazz taught, soul soaked and hiphop bounced sounds using a huge array of engineers, players and like-minded cats to achieve his vision. It's arranged with the sense of a classic studio album in the tradition of Stevie Wonder or Sun-Ra, benefitting from the bristling ebullience of the assembled cast but never losing its cohesion or joyful theme, making it a pleasure to witness.

The psyched West Coast pop harmonies of 'Major Heavy' features Sly Stone sound-alike Sonny Coates duetting with Count Bass D, while Om'Mas Keith and Stephen "Thundercat" Bruner make one of the highlights on 'Changes' with head swirling keys and wicked broken beat futurism. A highly recommended set to anyone who fell in love with 'The 4th World' or yearns for more Carlos Niño!

It's a sumblime mixture of afrobeat, electronica, funk, hip hop, psychidelica and soul.

Enough words let the music do the talking, check this one out!!

Get The Freude Am Tanzen Podcast #4 - Selected by Monkey Maffia

Monkey Maffia was 1 half of the Wighnomy Borthers together with Robag Whrume, they stopped dj'ing as a duo at he end of 2009. Monkey Maffia is best known for his record store Fatplastics in Jena, hometown of Freude Am Tanzen, and his dj skills, while Robag was more the producer of the Wighnomy Brothers project.

This 2 hour podcast is one of my favorites atm because it has that nice & warm, but raw (vinyl) funky groove going on, one that keeps you shuffling on the dancefloor.
