Celebrating Afrokinetic Photographer
Amanda Adams-Louis’s Birtday!!!
On Saturday, August 15, Carmina Soul returns OUTDOORS in the
courtyard @ The Old American Can Factory, for part 5 of this 7 part
series. Last months premier outdoor event with Mark De Clive-Lowe
and DJ OP! was bananas and this month we will be banging the drum
even harder!!!
This month resident DJ Chris Annibell and percussionist Amon
welcome Brooklyns favorite renaissance man to the turntables, world
renowned DJ/Producer/Visual Artist GE-OLOGY!!!
This mans mutil-media resume is staggering to look at. In short he
has produced music and remixes for the likes of Tupac, Mos Def,
Talib Kweli, De La Soul, Jill Scott, Yukimi Nagano (Little
Dragon/Koop), Sadat X (Brand Nubian), Pharoahe Monch, Vinia
Mojica, Bahamadia, Res, J-Dilla, Pete Rock, Gem… just to name a
few.
Additionally, GEO has has become synonymously known for album
cover art, T-shirt graphics, magazine illustrations, design, animation,
painting and live art. Perhaps the most famous of Ge-ology’s artistic
works, the classic “Body Rock” cover art (from the historic 1990’s
Rawkus era) featuring Mos Def (Blackstar), Q-Tip (A Tribe Called
Quest) and Tash (Tha Alkaholiks). This piece is widely recognized
and still remains one of the greatest hip hop artistic covers of all time
(also featured in Andrew Emery’s “The Book of Hip Hop Cover Art”
and listed at #3 in “EgoTrip’s Book of Rap List” 25 Great EP, 12″ & CD
Single Covers).
Together, they will infuse Brooklyn’s dance community with West
London Broken Beats, Latin Grooves, Global House, Classic and
Future Soul, Detroit Techno, Underground Hip-Hop, Jazz and African
Polyrhythms; a night geared towards honoring the cultural landscape
of Gowanus, Brooklyn and to transcend the confines of traditional
clubs.
Last but not least, we will be celebrating Afrokinetic Photographer,
Amanda Adams-Louis aka Lafotographeuse’s BIRTHDAY!!! Show love
for our girl by celebrating another beautiful year… filled with sunny
days and honey moon nights @ Carmina Soul.
