Gonjasufi & The Gaslamp Killer on a road trip from LA to Vegas.

An exclusive Tim Noakes film for Dazed Digital:

"For the music issue of Dazed I hit the road with psyche hop wizard Gonjasufi, travelling from LA to his home in Las Vegas. Along the way we hooked up with his long-term producer and global purveyor of cosmic bass, The Gaslamp Killer for an afternoon of machetes, possum hats, hash cookies and heady vibes. In this exclusive film for Dazed Digital, the duo discuss on camera – for the first time ever – what inspired A Sufi & A Killer, their hallucinogenic debut album, and we also show what happened behind the scenes of Luke Gilford’s shoot for the magazine. What are you waiting for? Los Bangeles and Sin City are calling you…"

Gonjasufi - A Sufi & A Killer. Listen to the whole album!

So here it is, Gonjasufi's album on Warp!! Clash Music offers a full preview of the album (below) and I must say I dig it a lot. Although the producers Mainframe, Gaslamp Killer and Flying Lotus inject their own style, it all comes together very nicely. Some raw shit! Just how we like it :P

Gonjasufi x Gaslamp Killer > Deadly Combination!

Gonjasufi is the LA-based, shaman looking, vocalist who collaborated plenty of times with people like Flying Lotus and the Gaslamp Killer. The outcome were tracks that were simply out of this world. Warp Records signed Gonjasufi some time ago and now a collaboration album with Gaslamp Killer has a firm release date: 9th March 2010!

"I just hope this record reaches people at the point when they're one foot out the window and looking down and that song comes on through the speakers and they pull their foot back through the windows and say "wait a minute - let me re-evaluate the situation..".  If anything I would pray that people find the ability to find themselves in the music." - Gonjasufi

Check Sufi's new website for more info and stream tunes.

And pre-order from warp.net

Includes a few older tracks, the recently released singles, like Ancestors - and new material. All produced by GLK, Flying Lotus and Mainframe. Good to see the track on there, that started it all for me - still ranks high in my all time favourites...

Another stand out track, that was released recently:

Gonjasufi - Ancestors.

San Diego's Gonjasufi landed on Planet Warp apparently. Good look! Anyway, Warp offers a free download from Gonja Sufi called "Ancestors":

Ancestors by Gonjasufi

Voice sound familiar?

Well you might remember this dude's haunting voice from Gaslamp Killer's "Kobwebs" track:

Or maybe it was the collaboration on Flying Lotus' "Los Angeles" Album:

Digging this one too:
