Video: Stadtbegegnungen - Senses of a City // Istanbul

Stadtbegegnungen hat Babacan bei der Karaköy Unterführung getroffen.

Ein sehr schönes Projekt  von Fatma Karakus, welches ich hier gerne vorstellen würde, lest selbst, die Portraits stehen für sich.

"Stadtbegegnungen ist ein Projekt, das Stadtfremden und Stadtbewohnern die Möglichkeit gibt, eine Stadt aus anderen Augen zu sehen. Stadtbegegnungen kommt mit Menschen in Berührung. Wer ist „Babacan“? Wo in der Stadt trifft man ihn an? Erste Projektstation ist Istanbul. Sowohl die Einwohner wie auch die Touristen laufen täglich in Scharen durch die Strassen dieser Stadt. Sie alle laufen an der Vielfalt Istanbuls vorbei....

Audio: Mini-Portrait- Gregory Porter

Some while ago I saw an nice documentary about the role of music in the US civil rights movement in the 60´s. Among others they interviewed a singer who also did a live performance only accompanied by a contrabassist: Gregory Porter. The live version of the track just blew me away. I researched the guy and found out that he is allready pretty famous. He even got a grammy nomination for his 2010 record "water".
So, I forgot about it and now got remindet by Opolo, who added a kick and bass to the song and made it into a "clubtrack". less is more. 

the remix:  Gregory Porter - 1960 What? (opolopo kick & bass rerub) by opolopo

Audio: Kadaj Da Kid - Portrait // Beat Tape

Kadaj Da Kid hit me up with his new Beat Tape called Portrait. The project is filled with good Sample-Based Beats robed with muggy Drum-Patterns and thick Bass-Lines, also mind of the nice piano samples and the vocal cuts.

Check the complete Beat Tape and hit the Download after the jump.

Nosaj Thing - MIS, Brasil 2010 (leg. português) from Cauê Ito on Vimeo.

Nosaj Thing is an impressive appearance. He reminds me of a good friend "Schröter" or "Berger"if you want. This cat is making dopamin-like music and combined with "Fair Enough" visuals it is fantastic.
