Wenu Wenu (Where is she?) English translation lyrics:
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Tell me how are you my love?
You, the one with a beautiful good heart
Tell me how are you my love?
You, the one with a beautiful good heart
You didn’t want me to suffer, you, my precious beloved
You didn’t want me to suffer, you, my precious beloved
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
Where is she? Where is she?
The one who I loved where is she?
How are you doing my treasure? You’re always on my mind
How are you doing my treasure? You’re always on my mind
Though you’re torturing me I can never forget you
Though you’re torturing me I can never forget you
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
Where is she? Where is she?
Who kills with her beautiful eyes
And with her delicate mouth
Who kills with her beautiful eyes

Omar Souleyman - Wenu Wenu

Soundway records present a unique record: a modern, haunting take on Sudanese music heard through the sonic lens of French artist / producer, Débruit and the poetic, ethereal lyrics and melodies of Sudanese-born singer Alsarah.

Aljawal (The Traveller) is a nomadic reflection for the 21st century. Each song reflects a new stop in the journey, with new cities and new people along the way. When Alsarah first heard Débruit's music she sensed and recognised a fellow traveller through the space and geography of his influences, a sense of time and history coupled with a forward-thinking futuristic outlook.

Born in the capital city of Sudan, Khartoum, Alsarah spent the first 8 years of her life here before she relocated to Taez, Yemen with her family to escape the ever-stifling regime in her native country. She abruptly moved to the US in 1994, when a brief civil war broke out in Yemen, and has lived there to this day.  

Xavier Thomas revealed Débruit in 2008 with 2 sold out 12″s for his and Fulgeance’s Parisian “Musique Large” imprint. Three more EPs on Civil Music followed that included his hit 'Nigeria What'. Piquing interest from the likes of XLR8R, Fact Mag, Benji B and Gilles Peterson his debut album ‘From The Horizon’ came out last year. His dazzling live electronics show has taken him around the world, from Russia to New York, Glastonbury to Sonar. 

On Aljawal he managed to capture and play with an analog sound that stretched the boundaries of the Sudanese rhythms and melodies that Alsarah had grown up with. A unique record was imagined and is finally presented here after a 2 year interplay of ideas and interaction between France and Brooklyn: Alsarah’s adopted home.

The Cannabinoids, The Beat Tape VOL.1

Sarah Jaffe - Glorified High (Cannabinoids Remix)

"Glorified High," the first single off Sarah Jaffe's  sophomore album, The Body Wins, is an electronic-tinged gem in its own right. So when fellow Texans The Cannabinoids remixed the track, they actually put a slower, stonier (no pun intended) spin on it. 

Conceived by Erykah Badu, the hip-hop/soul collective comprises nine members, each with his or her own special gift to offer. Together, the group smoothed out the orignal's rough edges, creating a fluid, spacey rework while maintaining the song's original appeal.

"Working with Sarah on this remix was a real honor," The Cannabinoids' PicnicTyme admitted. "I saw her perform for the first time somewhere around 2006 in Denton, TX. She was just as inspiring then as much as she is now. After all these years, it was an amazing experience to get to worth with the Cannabinoids and Sarah on this dope remix."

Jaffe shares a mutual excitement about the project, saying, "I was thrilled and honored to say the least when Cannabinoids made this remix. I met PicnicTyme through a mutual friend, Astronautilis, years back and was a big fan ever since. He's done so much for the Dallas music scene and I have the utmost respect for him and The Cannabinoids."

Crow44: This mild mannered North Yorkshire resident has been steadily cranking out jam after jam on his antiquated PC for the last decade or so. Having begun his musical career in a John Barry and Yardbirds inspired rock outfit in Britain’s swinging 60s, his music has mellowed over the years to something altogether sublime, centered around smooth Korg M1 chords, jazzy synth riffs, drum machines, and his undying devotion to the Egyptian goddess Isis.

New THEESatisfaction & OC Notes track "Icing". Produced by OC Notes. Features rapping and singing by THEESatisfaction & OC Notes. Released November 26th, 2009


THEESatisfaction & OC Notes "Icing"

THE CANNABINOIDS present
{welcome to the human brain… and the science of addiction}

8 laptops, 3 turntables, 6 keyboards, 4 drum machines, a Theremin, live onstage production
The Cannabinoids represent a musical exploration of the science of addiction. It's the sensational reaction created when the synthetic combines with the organic, and The Cannabinoids are the receptors that bind the experience. The project was originally conceived when Erykah Badu sought to manifest live musical improvisation utilizing the tools of studio tracking and hip-hop production. 

Inspired by her cosmic collaborations for her award-winning New Amerykah, Part I album release in 2008, Erykah reached out to musicians, DJs, and beatsmiths from her hometown of Dallas, Texas, whom she felt would be able to vibe with the concept. The musical concept was improvisation, and has developed into a live “remix” set. The ideological concept was akin to the studies done on cannabinoid receptors, which identified specific proteins present in the brain that are responsible for the euphoric effects of cannabis. 

With each member of the group assigned a specific cannabinoid (musical role), the receptors proceed to serve as a catalyst to inspire creation in each other, and to collectively create a psychedelic, live hip-hop experience for the audience. 

Introducing: in no certain order:
1. Jah Born – HU-210… as cerebral cortex aka grey matter
(control’s thinking)

2. Erykah Badu – THC as sarah bellum aka medulla oblongata
(known as the ‘little brain’/controls heart rate)

3. DJ Big Texas – SR141716 as sphenoid
(bone in skull that is known as ‘two great wings’)

4. RC Williams – JWH-133 as maxilla
(part of skull that fuses 2 halves of mental symphysis)

5. Symbolyc One – NABILONE as somatosensory cortex
(triggers the sensation or experience of touch)

6. Rob Free – LEVONANTRADOL as superior colliculus aka substantia nigra
(generator of hand eye coordination/black substance in midbrain)

7. Picnic – MARINOL as corpus callosum aka white matter
(connects right and left cerebral hemispheres)

8. A1 – SATIVEX as cingulated gyrus
(controls emotion, memory, processing, learning)

9. Cleon Edwards - GOOD FOOT - as Tetrahydrocannabinol aka Delta9
(the main psychoactive substance found in the cannabis plant)
