Filastine in The Wire

Posted by Dave Segal at 02:09 PM

Seattle producer Filastine receives a strong review from Philip Sherburne in the April issue of experimental-music bible The Wire. Burn It drops April 25 on Soot Records. Sherburne calls the album:

purposefully decentered… fusing ‘folk’ musics from North Africa, South Asia and the Middle East with dancehall and breakcore programming, sombre basslines slouching toward Babylon and raps in English and Spanish.
