The youngest son of Nigerian world music icon Fela Kuti
makes his Los Angeles debut. Since his father’s death
when he was 15, lead vocalist/saxophonist Seun Kuti has
led the legendary Egypt 80, the band his father had forged
into one of Africa’s most exciting ensembles. Seun continues
to propel the sounds and rhythms of Afrobeat - a pungent blend
of funk and jazz with a Nigerian sensibility, reminiscent of
James Brown but grittier - with socially conscious lyrics.
Egypt 80 is as explosive as it was under Fela, combining horns,
keyboards, percussion, guitars and vocals in a an overpowering
blend that is always insistent.

DonGuapo came to the Bay by way of Los Angeles. He grew up on his father’s love for jazz and soul, his mother’s passion for rock and classical, and the golden era of hip hop. Frustrated with the changing landscape of hiphop, Guapo turned to house music and Disco thus beginning the birth of his new life in the club within the realm of all things House. He began DJing in 1997 around the same time he grew tired of holding up the walls going out at night. This magnetic DJ soon developed a name for himself and his rich taste in music while playing tracks that infused the dance floor with a much needed shot of energy. He eventually began residing at Therapy, a Hollywood staple along with Gabriel Rene of the famed Naked Music. It is here at Therapy he has shared the decks with West Coast House legend Marques Wyatt as well as Andy Caldwell, Miguel Migs and a host of others. Recently, Guapo moved to the Bay Area to push the envelope of his career even further. Upon arrival he has shared the decks with Julius Papp, Mark Farina, Andrew Phelan, Bay Area staple Dedan, and the like. Guapo’s style ranges from Deep and Tribal House to the classics. Make sure you bring a towel and some comfortable shoes when you get the chance to check him out, because the walls will not be up for the holding.

JOE CLAUSSELL - (NYC) www.sacredrhythmmusic.net myspace.com/joe…
Brooklyn’s Joe Claussell has long been one of NYC’s busiest dance figures; working as a highly respected DJ, producer, remixer, label-head, and record-shop owner within the house community. He began working at the New York record store Dance Tracks in the late ’80s, and after forming a partnership with owner Stefan Prescott, turned it into one of the leading vinyl sources in the city. Claussell turned to production with a few remixing credits, and in 1996 launched Spiritual Life Music with single “Stubborn Problems” by Timmy Regisford. His Sunday club night Body & Soul (with fellow residents François Kevorkian and Danny Krivit) recreated the vibes fostered at the birth of modern dance music by David Mancuso’s Loft sessions during the early ’70s. In his productions, Claussell has often mirrored that eclectic mix of styles, dropping in plenty of acoustic instruments and rich percussion patterns. myspace.com/joe…
