GE-OLOGY "Live" at MUSICLAND - JUNE 23, 2023, (Secret Location Brooklyn, NY)

Whether you view GE-OLOGY as a world-class producer, visual artist or DJ depends on how long you’ve known him. His prolific contributions to music, & art more broadly, span over 40 years & are well-documented. An artist in every sense, Ge-ology has excelled across numerous disciplines like illustration, fine arts painting & sculpture, graphic design & music production - all well before the term “multidisciplinary artist” was popularized.
Among his bountiful accolades are his earliest beats as part of the 4 member high school hip hop crew “Born Busy” with Tupac Shakur in the 80s, and later, his collaborative alteration of the hip hop visual & fashion landscape with the jointly talented Matt Doo through their “mentally ILLustrated” artistic partnership Dooable Arts in the 90s, & his production of cultural milestones like songs on both the debut “Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star” & Mos Def’s solo “Black On Both Sides” LPs.
 
Ge-ology’s profound artistry sets him apart from his peers and is abundantly clear in his DJing and musical experimentation. He flawlessly expresses contrast, depth, texture & color to blend music & art into a single creative lens. “It’s really the same language. You can describe music in artistic ways & colors in a very musical way.”
Never stagnant or complacent, between touring internationally & his residency at Public Records, Ge-ology is wrapping up two highly-anticipated creative projects for Fall 2023. One record is his full production, the other is a rework of a rare, never reissued record of which he’s obtained the master reel & blessing of the original artist.
 
When asked about his taste & approach to selection, Ge-ology keeps it simple. “Every time I play, I want to bring something special to the table.” He likes to play “shit that’s different,” whether it’s overlooked cheap heat, music people don’t know or high value rare records that very few people have.He digs for music that’s under the radar, extremely funky, soulful & moving.
Always intriguing & exciting, Ge-ology engages dancers on his musical voyages by seamlessly & organically bringing them up & down to different emotional places. But expect some surprises & curveballs - “I don’t like to be bored or to be predictable, so you can always expect something interesting!”

To truly appreciate Ge-ology’s wizardry, you need to be there for the whole story.

“I got some shit!”

Come prepared to dance!

GE-OLOGY "Live" at MUSICLAND - JUNE 23, 2023

Absolutely awesome mix from Hélder Russo, a Lisbon-based producer and DJ well-known for his love of soul, jazz, hip-hop, funk, disco and Detroit house and techno.
Both the soundtrack of his upbringing (Portuguese speaking African authors of the highest caliber such as Orlando Pantera, Ferro Gaita and Cesária Évora) and his 90’s hip-hop and house music influences played a major role in musical growth.

His work as a producer comes as a result of all the above: an interesting blend of genres and styles, with black music as a common ground. From jazz and hip-hop, through to soul, funk, electro and new wave from the 80 ́s, all merging into the unique Detroit sound.

From his first productions – for Lisbon-based labels such as Groovement and Tomorrow Is Now Kid! – up until his work at Percebes (his current label), Hélder has developed his own signature sound – with tracks that convey a sense of sincerity without falling into the repeated formulas of the past.
His career as a DJ is equally consistent and captivating, subtly inspired by some of his reference artists such as Theo Parrish, Louie Vega, Carl Craig, among others.

Nothin rare here but the kind of slower records that were favourites in the mid 80s in and around the Canning Town area of East London when we were doing the sound system thing!
