Opening track of 2009's album Dirty Bomb (press sheet below)

Filastine's 2006 debut album Burn It made inroads among music fans from the hiphop, world, electronic, and experimental scenes. The album peaked at #15 in France's national independent radio charts, and it received airplay from Mary Anne Hobbes & John Peel. The CD was snatched up and re-released by French label Jarring Effects, Japanese label Romz, and US anarcho-collective Crimethinc. 
With his sophmore album, Dirty Bomb, Filastine's gritty transnational soundclash of urban rhythm returns. Freely splicing dubstep with balkan brass or hiphop with bollywood, Dirty Bomb parties in the mud puddle of our increasingly polluted world. Kick drums beat out rapid patterns for dances yet to be invented. Rich acoustic strings merge with programmed synths. Listen to "Fitnah" for proof that a song doesn't need to be in English nor in 4/4 to be a mesmerizing pop wonder. Each vocal here resulted from an on-site collaboration. Aboriginal Australian Wire MC and Japan's ECD (indy hiphop icons of their respective countries) rap over the contorted crunk of "Hungry Ghosts". Closing the album is teen gypsy La Perla, recorded in a squatted cave in 
Granada.

Filastine’s Burn It is one of those rare debut albums that reveal an artist operating at the height of their powers. A Hip-Hop backbone supports live polyriddims, collaborating musicians, lush electronica, field-recordings, and an array of guest MCs and singers. The result is genuinely fresh, streetwise, and solid. From start-to-finish. 
Burn It redefines the term “laptop artist” as someone who uses portability to record and produce anywhere. While Burn It will satisfy beat-heads, the album also exhibits a deeper musicality. Check the upright bass, horns, and sultry French vocals of “Palmares” (track 3) or the trio of singers on “Ja Helo” (track 14). “Quémalo Ya” (track 2) was composed on a Brazilian rooftop with vocals tracked in Havana, while Filastine assembled his studio in the medina square of Marrakesh to get the snake-charmer flutes of “Judas Goat” (track 5). If you were to circle the Earth a few times, listening closely to the beats and noises of the streets, it might sound something like this album. Street artist Swoon contributed her signature cutouts to create the cover art. 
Most folks who’ve spent years studying percussion are afraid to bend live beats into computers, but Filastine uses his drummer’s skill -- along with laptop & microphone – to redraw the musical map. He has studied under tabla superstar Zakir Hussein, played with coke-fueled samba bands in Rio de Janeiro, and soaked up knowledge in North Africa. Filastine’s live performance is a clash of laptop, loudspeaker, midi triggers, live percussion, and often a vocalist. This spring he’ll tour Europe alongside DJ /rupture. 
Sound is action in Filastine’s world. He founded the 20-piece anarchist marching band Infernal Noise Brigade, conducts guerilla activist interventions with custom-built soundsystems, and has been gassed, assaulted, or arrested by police of many uniforms.

Magnetic whiteness

bending the masculine and feminine concepts.....somehow so the point is just us, everybody, justice.....Instrumental song! here ya go. it's just a guitar


If WE could all be Z

sing-a-song kids at the killing fields. the hobo librarian at the bulb in Berkeley. wind chimes from the bigfoot store in the redwoods somewhere, and Jadon trying to answer a very vague question concerning the well being of our generations political activities. "What do think about what's going on around you?"
duuuuuhhhhhh...........diy culture is good...........?
