A Sufi and A Killer




One word: Soundscape Trip. Gonjasufi is the epitome of the west coast. Anyone with a name like Gonjasufi would be assumed to exists in a lifted state of mind who--and i'm gonna go out on a limb here--does drugs. All natural of course. He's a rapper, singer, disk jockey, and apparently yoga teacher initially from San Diego and now residing in Las Vegas (for the peyote I assume) with some of the illest dreads I've ever seen. That shit is crazy.

His 21 track album A Killer and a Sufi is a psychedelic piece of art. Just made a new playlist on my iTunes and "Change," "Ancestors," "Candylane," and "Dust" have been put on repeat often. What's the best part for those willing to enjoy this album for free? The whole album is posted here as a .rar file. If you don't know what a .rar file is Google: 7 Zip and that will easily open it for you. This is some of the most relaxing / experimental music of 2010. Electronic, hip hop, reggae, blues, rhythm, jazz, etc. It's f***ing sick. I recommend all of them,

Interesting fact: I took an Islamic studies class, the Sufis are a sect within Islam that happen to be super chill and mystical. I don't know what the Gonja part means.
