heads up!
watch out for an upcoming release on
bitasweet by an artist called
afrikan sciences. there will be two tracks called "restless soul" and "nubian hyperdrive," the former receiving a
bugz in the attic remix on the same single. i'm a bit biased as the man behind these tunes happens to be one of my closest friends, but i can tell ya it's some good stuff with a lot of that broken feel. he has been making music for over ten years: experimental hip hop, broken beats, ambient, dnb, electrosoul, roots, dub, dancehall... he’s an excellent dj and has a mighty record collection as well. if u haven’t already, u can check out “restless soul” and “nubian hyperdrive” along with a new track at
