GHOST NOTES WORLDWIDE W/ CANNABIS CLIPPER (CEILING DRIPS)

Tune into Ghost Notes Worldwide for that post-twilight sound. Night time music of all strains, with blunted R&B and hip hop instrumentals, neo-downtempo productions, slow jams, and hazy dancefloor sounds.

Ritmo Santanero w/ LX Ramirez

Ritmo Santanero is an all-vinyl cumbia DJ Crew based out of Santa Ana, CA consisting of DJ’s Rigo Suave, Gary Ventura, LX Ramirez, and Kevin Hernandez. The revered cumbia connoisseurs locally dubbed “Los Reyes Cumbieros” are each seasoned vinyl collectors in their own right. Their highly-curated selection ranges from porros, gaitas, rebajadas, to rare tracks and beloved classics - all on 45s. Ritmo Santanero stands out as an artistic contender in the Southern California sonidero scene as the trio expands out of Santa Ana and into Long Beach, and Los Angeles - bringing the best all-vinyl cumbia night to a town near you. Spinning a mix of cumbia genres from of all corners of the world, Ritmo Santanero is reviving the once-dormant sonidero culture of the 90’s, yet deviating from the announcement-heavy tradition by letting the music do the talking.

Spoken Word Experimental Ambient Hip Hop

Heartbreak frequently visits those who reside in failing nation states and crippled societies. With every news cycle, there is a jab of betrayal, then eventual despair, then bitter resilience. Sometimes, joy slips through cracks and forgetfulness comes to aid. There is no closure though; eventually one has to face the music.

Inspired by a series of interview clips from 2010 of a 24 year old Junaid Hafeez, a young academic full of life and dreams, who has now spent 10 years in solitary confinement as he awaits the death penalty under allegations of blasphemy.
