I Am Chemistry

Recorded at Carefree Studios in Brooklyn, NY by Ian Hersey 
Mastered by Rich Morales at Super Fine Audio

Holographic Autograph (single)

show number #438
Airdate: July 18th 2016

We travel to Zanzibar to enjoy highlights from the Sauti za Busara Festival, focused on Swahili sounds from coastal East Africa, then north to the Fes Festival of Sacred World Music in Morocco, where we hear the ecstatic sounds of Sufi artists performing late into the night. We go to Dakar, Senegal for the Coca-Cola Ebony Festival to enjoy Afropop headliners, and wind up in Mali for rousing performances at the Festival Sur le Niger this past winter.

N'diarabi (feat. Ismael Kouyate)- Ian Hersey Remix

This was a mix put together by the Captain and I one hot June afternoon for WPRI in Upstate NY to promote a gig we were heading up there to do on the weekend.  It was conceived it at a steady 13mph clip around the outer loop of Prospect Park, and executed it  that evening over Coronas and big boy Tiger Beers at the Captain's crib in Flatbush...hence the name of the mix.

Lots of sunshine music contained herein.....as well as a couple of soon-to-be released tracks from Bastard Jazz and BSTRD Boots - hope you enjoy!
