Download/Stream Afrolicious - 2-12-09 Set 2
What a mad night of music, energy, dance and community it was last week at Afrolicious! There was much cause for celebration because we had a birthday guest,DJ, Master of Ceremonies, Master Percussionist, Jedi Master and brother from another mother Nappy G returned to the Afrolicious party.
Since his last time at the party Nappy has been a busy man, doing tours of Europe as a dj and sideman with some other amazing bands and djs, and holding steady in the NYC.
Nappy also put out an album last fall featuring remixes from producers around the planet, including Pleasuremaker, who laid down some Afro-psych guitar over the ultra percussive cut Habanaba.
More and more family came out throughout the night including MCs Soulati and Lex from Raw Deluxe, DJ Smash, Izzy, and of course all-night long on percussion B Lee and drumming from Elrod (check the all live drum intro on the recording at top!)
"Whats that remix Smash?"

Ok, just want to say that the cup of life has been full. Been busy rockin' parties with YOU, laying down a studio session @ Sound Arts with our homies over there. Been producing it with the help of engineer and friend Ryan Kleeman, into what will be the Pleasuremaker band debut EP, tentatively titled '09 EP vol. 1 as we are looking to put out much more music in the still young year. Been also nursing myself back to health as many of the folks I know have also been battling this long-term cold thing that just aint too cool.
Well let's get down to the inspirational side. As for Afrolicious we have had some incredible guest and just as importantly amazing vibes from you all week in and week out. Last week we had Jeremy Sole come up from Los Angeles where he host a weekly party called Afrofunké. It was great having that cat and his amazing energy and killer set of music. The week before that we had Chief Boima from Africa, bringing the very deep and tribal soundz to the party. Also in January we had DJ Tom Thump from SF and part of Loose Joints, Yacouba Diarra and Fato Foli, DJ Nomada from Austria bringin' a heavy Balkan flavour and DJ Proof (SF) part of the Massive Selectors crew throwing down a very tasty set.
January was a killer month of guests at Afrolicious and other parties rocked at such spots as Make Out Room, Boom Boom Room, Cafe Du Nord w- Boca Do Rio, Annie's Social Club with Toph One and DJ Zjelcko as well as a couple more at Mojitos!
We have been taking hand held recordings at the shows and will be posting more of those up soon to come! I just got done putting last week's Afrolicious into sets (at top of post), enjoy!
So looking forward to Afrolicious tonight with our good friend and amazing DJ,musician, MC, and producer, Nappy G. as well as tomorrow night @ Amnesia for the Global Village get down. We all rocked together last night @ Rickshaw stop w-the good people from Partycorps for the Funkraiser II party and it was a blast. Big ups to Be Brown, Señor Oz, the full Pleasuremaker band and Nappy G.! The proceeds from last night's event are helping the Rehabilitation Initiative 2009 which will send two physical therapists to spend a year training local Democratic Republic of Congo healthcare providers in addressing these vast rehabilitation needs.
