DustyCrates - Tafsiri EP

Release Date: 11 October 2013

Label: Duzz Don San

In the spring of 2013 Dusty Crates members Simp & Shawn The Savage Kid (STSK) have put themselves together and started to work on a new release. And here it is, "Tafsiri". The title “Tafsiri” meaning interpretation and/or translation in swahili and gives quite a hint on what Dusty Crates planned to do. The idea is quite simple: take dusty samples from African countries like Ethiopia, Senegal or Namibia, isolate the musical magic and mix it into a hybrid fusion of modern future beats and sloppy rhythms. The outcome is a seven track EP full of diverse sounds and melodies - a mixture of both experimental and conceptual “Post Genre” which tries to preserve the genius of all African musicians sampled on this EP.

Tracklist:

1. bati (STSK) 02:37

2. miriam (simp) 03:41

3. de femmes (STSK) 04:06

4. bassekouss (simp) 03:13

5. sigala (STSK) 03:03

6. bella (simp) 03:18

7. konadu (STSK & simp) 02:43
