Remember ALL CAPS when you spell the mans’ name. EZRAKH is the man and if you’ve been lucky enough to be in the room when he’s spinning, you know it’s always a vibe to bring the people together. Organic and eclectic in taste, mixes are likely to include anything from afrobeat to jazz to funk to hip hop to house. Part of the Brick Bandits crew out of NJ, EZRAKH has made his name known at every venue you can imagine including premier NYC/Brooklyn clubs to house parties and underground d.i.y holes in the wall. It is his deep collection and broad taste that allows him to chameleon into any scenario, all the while staying true to his form. Check him out on the scene and stream/download his current mixes on soundcloud. [Free Download] @thinknotsleep
Live is Banana. ’Live is Banana’ God, I try so hard to bring you brand new artists gracing these front pages but throughout our quest we’ve created a list of the DIY poster-childrean and when they release something new, I can’t help myself- youneed to know. Trust me young Padawan- it’s a mix of the best. The best of the best. @Dingusonmusic
Our friends across the pond at Beko-DSL published a new compilation album this morning curated by Hartzine, featuring some of the best diy artists we’ve ever failed to discover (you better believe we’ll be checking them all out). Starting with a track from the estranged and delusional Ender Belongs to Me, the entire project is indeed worth the download.
Manifesto
With technology growing exponentially, personal computing is challenging the recording business and the internet is challenging the publishing business. Now more than ever, we see the pool of music and design growing deeper. But as always, the more music there is, the harder it is to find what really matters.
Dingus is dedicated to the search. It's here, on this humble blog that we shed light on bedroom artists in their most defining moments. If you want what's popular today, Dingus is not the blog for you. But, if you want what's fringe, pure and passionate then you've somehow landed on the right URL. So check back daily and enjoy your fellow peers' endeavors.
