Nommo Ogo made the track embedded with this post.

The artist description on Kabel says, "Emanating cthonic electronic sonicks from non-euclidian perspectives." This 3-piece band experiments with electronic and electro-acoustic elements for creating soundscapes that tell surreal stories.

F. Grey made this: 'Organic Cadence' video recording, rhythmic editing by fluorescent grey. (no overdubbing used, all original source sounds from video):

I just did a hip-hop track in San Francisco with a guy from Jamaica, N4SA, [and] a rapper from Oakland, Blacksmith. A Punjabi singer [from] San Jose heard it in India and I echoed his voice in a dub style throughout the track in the background. I brought a dub version of this riddim to New Delhi and I had an Indian ragga MC voice on it. Right there, the riddim has traveled around the world.
