Low End Theory Podcast-Ep 24:Gaslamp Killer, D-Styles, Daddy Kev, and Nobody!

- Sélection 100% vinyl 100% ZamZam / Khaliphonic - 

Si un label sait faire preuve de consistance sans aucun compromis c'est bel et bien ZamZam sounds. De la production à la sérigraphie, rien ne leur échappe et les plus grands noms de la scène mondiale sont passé par leurs établissement : Gregory Isaac, Alpha & Omega, Ishan Sound, RSD, Badawi, Macka B, Al Wootton, Junior Dread, El Mahdy Jr, Big Youth, Brendon Moeller, Johnny Clarke...
Quality !

Depuis 2012, des sorties strictement vinyls en tirage limité, avec des galettes pressés aux petits oignons, du design à la presse, des pochettes sérigraphiées à la main via Polygon Press gérées par Tracy. Au-delà de ZamZam, ils dirigent également le label Khaliphonic qui explore des sonorités mondiales passées à la moulinette Dub comme Los Gaiteros De San Jacinto et leur cumbia ancestrale, l'ambient avec Sam Binga & Welfare et plus encore. Acteurs incontournable, ils font partie de cette grande famille qui inonde les ondes aux côtés de Bristol avec Dubkasm et Gorgon Sound, depuis Tokyo chez Disc Shop Zero ou Undefined, en France avec Von D et OBF.
C'est à Portland, Oregon que le QG et l'esprit de ce label est ancré. Issu du défunt label BSI (Bucolic Sound Investigations) tenu par Ezra aka E3 qui perpetue cet engagement au service du dub et de ses valeurs avec des artistes cultes tel Muslimgauze, King Jammy, Jah Warrior, Henry & Louis, The Rootsman...Le label s'éteint au milieu des années 2000 et c'est en 2012 il y a maintenant 10 ans que ZamZam est crée par Ezra et Tracy. Depuis, ce label est devenu incontournable, pourrait-on dire même crucial. En 2018, c'est au Telerama Dub Festival de Paris qu'ils se sont produits pour une dance accompagné du Sinaï Sound System. Les présent-e-s s'en rappellent encore !

Le label fêtera 10 ans d'activisme le 30 Juin au Outlook Festival avec un line-up incendiaire : 
Adam Prescott, Al Wootton, Dubkasm, J.Sparrow B2B J:Kenzo, Marcus Anbessa, Maria, Om Unit, Rider shafique, Sun of Selah et bien sûr ZamZam Sounds themselves E3 & TR.

Voici donc un petit mix non-exhaustif de quelques pépites de ma collection.

The Gaslamp Killer - Live From My Living Room - Summer 2020

Episode 25  Mixes By D - Styles, Daddy Kev, Nobody And GLK

I've decided that, like the other Workinonit mixes, I'd put out an extended version of the live set that I dropped at the MF DOOM tribute at Manchester's Workinonit in October 2024. The mix is jam packed with all things DOOM from samples, remixes, covers, production & more. I wanted to get this out right after the set but I’ve had a crazy few weeks here and have only just got time to record it!!

Along with stright up DOOM tracks, this mix also features appearances from Your Old Droog, Jay Electronica, Ghostface Killah, Kurious, Mach-Hommy, Bishop Nehru, Kool Keith, Tuxedo, Aesop Rock, Homeboy Sandman, Prince Po, C-Rayz Walz, Vast Aire, Czarface, Moka Only, Count Bass D, Tommy Gunn, Wale Oyejide, KRS-One, Atmosphere and many more.

As well as those featurwed above, this mix dips into tracks from Madlib, Oh No, Hell Razah, Flying Lotus, Abstract Orchestra, Dabrye, Jneiro Jarel, Danger Mouse, Lice, Kuartz, Criseal, Chris Craft, Tom Caruana, 3rd Bass, Cannibal Ox, BADBADNOTGOOD, Czarface, Masta Ace, Wilma Archer, DJ Matman, Non Phixion to name a few.

Sample wise...... nah, I'm not gonna snitch but expect a global sampe base, from obscure to household names.  This digs deep!!!

As with Episode One, this mix is jam packed with all things DOOM from samples, remixes, covers, production from well know to obscure. No matter if you’re a KMD, ground zero fan or have recently discovered him, I guarantee there’s something for everyone!!!

Big up to everyone that checked out Episode One.  If you haven't it's on here too.

Also, if you don't follow me on socials, here's the link to pretty much everything. It would be great to link up so that I can say thanks for all the support.

Thanks again & let me know what you think of the mix if you decide to give it a spin!!

Much love!

DJ DS

Gaslamp Killer 75 min Boiler Room DJ Set

The Gaslamp Killer - Resident Advisor Mix RA 329 (September 2012)

Original Mix / Feature here: http://bit.ly/UccLEA

Raw sounds from an LA b-boy.

You don't get a word like "motherfucker" attached to your name for no good reason. William Bensussen, AKA The Gaslamp Killer, has been in peoples' faces right from the start. Coming up in the rock town of San Diego, Bensussen would continually clear dance floors in the city's Gaslamp district—hence the name—by playing Mobb Deep and Dilla.

Things didn't stay this way forever. In LA he became a resident DJ at Daddy Kev's Low End Theory, the mythologised weekly party and producer hangout that has seen the likes of Daedelus, Nosaj Thing and Flying Lotus rise from its ranks. It was on the latter's Brainfeeder that GLK met a global audience as a producer. 2009's My Troubled Mind and the following year's Death Gate threw up his love of grizzly beats and obscure samples. Seeing GLK behind a pair of turntables is, however, when the MF tag makes most sense. His shows are the epitome of unhinged energy. Rock, jazz, bass music and funk are just as likely to be aired as hip-hop, as he wigs out with his now trademark dance moves.

GLK's "Resident Killer mix" is 45-minute slice of what we're talking about—plus you get the added bonus of a coda comprised solely of music from Breakthrough, his madcap debut album which was released today through Brainfeeder.

What have you been up to recently?

Touring (as usual), working on new music with Jungle By Night from Amsterdam, not to mention enjoying this amazing summer of love!

How and where was the mix recorded?

In my room at my house in Los Angeles on ProTools with my Dr. Sample 303.

Can you tell us about the idea behind the mix?

It's one of my best mixes yet. The first part is all about the heavy newer beat music with a bunch of unreleased stuff from my worldwide crew of beat making friends. The second part is a little more hip-hop turntablist influenced and the third part is all brand new GLK Breakthrough material!

Tell us about the writing of Breakthrough.

I worked on it tirelessly between touring and touring—trying to work with some of my favourite LA musicians to make it all come to life a little more than my previous records. Also, had to reach out to Dimlite (CH) all the way out in Zurich cause he is one of my favourite producers of all time and I am working on a whole record with him soon!

Outside of your LA base, where do you see as being other key strongholds for your sound?

London, Manchester, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Istanbul, Tel Aviv, Athens, Tokyo, Johannesburg and New York fuckin City are some of my most favourite places to play. They always get what I'm bringing to the table and always have amazing openers playing with me that make me want to run for the hills! Some of these cities even have Low End Theory-related events that stemmed from our little Wednesday night club in LA. Pretty fuckin cool.

What are you up to next?

Release parties all over the world plus a new Low End Theory podcast with a VERY special guest! Even planning a trip to India with Gonjasufi to try and record some new material there. But it's all in the works so I can't promise anything just yet! 

The Gaslamp Killer - Resident Advisor Mix ★ September 2012

Beginning in the Summer of 2012 with his Low End Theory guest spots, DJ Shadow's "All Basses Covered" set has morphed and evolved to incorporate as many different contemporary genres of urban and electronic music as possible. From hardcore rap to footwork and juke and beyond, Shadow has combed the web to curate seamless and dexterous blends of the most progressive sounds bubbling up from the underground.  'Too hard?' 'Too future?' Or just too raw? As always, DJ Shadow has provoked crucial flashpoints of discussion about the discipline of DJ'ing that have defined our turbulent times.  -DJShadow.com Team
