Studio 9 Presents: A Special DJ set by Sinkane
Join us for a special DJ set by Sinkane on July 5th.
Sinkane, born Ahmed Abdullahi Gallab, is a Sudanese-American musician who blends krautrock, prog rock, electronica, free jazz and funk rock with Sudanese pop. He is signed to City Slang Records.
Ahmed Gallab is also the vocalist and music director of the Atomic Bomb! Band which plays the music of Nigerian funk musician William Onyeabor.
Sinkane’s most recent album release, We Belong, is the eighth studio album from Sinkane, a band led by multi-instrumentalist Ahmed Gallab. And like much of Sinkane’s previous releases, it resists genre. It’s pop. It’s funk. It’s electronic. It blends the gritty punk newness of a 70s and 80s New York with the steady, foundational soul of the rhythms of his native Sudan. Though We Belong comes deep into the catalog of a long career, it also resists stagnation. It moves and travels—through words and eras, through emotion and healing. It is a kind of rebirth for Gallab, who began releasing music under the Sinkane moniker in 2007.
Check out a recent DJ set at the Boiler Room in NYC.
