ARTE: ROMARE - MEDITATIONS ON AFROCENTRISM

Came across this earlier in the week and wondered what music from a group called ROMARE would sound like.  Using the late great artists technigue of collage the album cover pays homage to Mr. Bearden and the music which seems to be layered and builds up as it plays leaves you wanting more.

ARTE: KCRW ROCKS

One of the saving graces of Los Angeles life is an independent radio station out of Santa Monica called KCRW! Working in the arts and creating a space for art and culture I realize how important it is to deliver something you think is important, noteworthy or just awesome without watering it down due to corporate censorship.  This radio station is funded in large by the people who listen every day (like me!)  They have been doing a pledge drive over the last two weeks and today is the last day to pledge and become a member during the drive and get some really fantastic giveaways.

Go here and become a member online kcrw.com of if you live in LA tune in at 89.9FM and listen to what you can win and how you can join.  If you don't make it today no sweats, I think you can join anytime through the website.
