This week at SOUNDLIB, we’ve got a special double-feature for you: Austin legends BROTHA K and DJ STARSIGN.

BROTHA K, aka THE OL’ SKOOL GENIUS, is one of the pioneers of the Austin Hip-Hop scene and is known for his extensive knowledge and collection of classic Hip-Hop. BROTHA K was the mastermind behind the DOLLA HOLLA OL’ SKOOL SHOW, originally a monthly showcase of old school Hip-Hop on DJ LIL TIGER’s popular Dolla Holla radio show on KO.OP in the late 90s and early 2000s. BROTHA K became co-host of the weekly show after LIL TIGER’s departure and has since solidified his status as one of Austin’s most charismatic talents through his work as an on-air personality on commercial radio, a host on Magic video, and as a DJ at various hot spots around town. The Buffalo-native has been holding the torch for Hip-Hop in Austin for more than 20 years. It’s a profound honor to have him join us at SOUNDLIB.

As if that weren’t enough, we’re also really excited to have DJ STARSIGN spin as well. The founder of the PARAKITACHI DJ crew (that featured DJs Chicken George, Melodic, Nick Nack, and LIL TIGER, among others), STARSIGN is one of Austin’s premier tastemakers. His eclectic style and versatile sets span the depths of house, jazz, dub, electronica, funk, rap, disco, latin, ambient, blues and all things rooted in soul and dance.

STARSIGN’s appearance with LIL TIGER at SOUNDLIB will mark the reunion of the SOUND ACADEMY, the duo’s monicker from their days spinning soulful tunes in various spots around Houston in the early 2000s.

It’s gonna be a historic night. As always, the party is FREE. We start and end EARLY (9pm-1am), so we won’t keep you out too late. Hope to see you there. …

After the success of the first SLF/SoundLib Edition of the Music Without Borders party at Kush, Kunal and Seif decided we should make it a monthly. Thus, I’ll be spinning there tonight to get the ball rolling on our new monthly collabo, and I’m pretty damn geeked about it.

The party starts early at 7pm and it’s FREE the whole night. Musically, we’ll take you on ride across the globe with an eclectic mix of international sounds, while Alberto holds court on some serious domino action.

Of coures, we’ll have drink specials ($3 beers, $5 jack) lined up, along with some bomb tacos and lamb sliders and other eats. Plus, there will be hookahs ($10 until 10) to get your tasty buzz on.

It’s gonna be a laid back vibe with great music and hella cool folks, so stop by after work and give us a shout.

This week at SOUNDLIB we’re bringing back DJ KUNAL MERCHANT from MUSIC WITHOUT BORDERS. He was originally scheduled to spin with us back in May, but he coudn’t make it then due to illness. It took us a little longer than we wanted, but we’ve finally got him back on the bill. KUNAL’s influences range from Depeche Mode to Outkast to Massive Attack to Classical Indian music, so he’ll definitely have some interesting tunes to play for y’all this week at SOUNDLIB.

DJ LIL TIGER will also be on hand delivering his trademark selections of soul (new and old), Hip-Hop, afrobeat, house, reggae and much more.

As always, it’s FREE all night. We start and end EARLY (9pm-1am), so we won’t keep you out too late. …

/// WKCR’s Eastern Standard Time and the Sound Liberation Front team up to present CONEY ISLAND REGGAE SOUND SYSTEM BEACH PARTY II on the Coney Island Boardwalk. The all-day event (from noon to sundown) is free and will feature live DJs and special guest artists combining to bring the enormously influential culture of Jamaican sound systems to the Brooklyn beach.

Among the featured DJs for the event are DJ CARTER VAN PELT, host of Eastern Standard Time; HAHN SOLO, lead guitarist and dub engineer for Dub Is A Weapon; and VAUGHN ALL STAR, a selector for King Crown International sound system.

Sound systems took over from orchestras in Jamaican dancehalls in the 1950s and became part of nearly every development in Jamaican music: Ska, Rocksteady, Reggae, Dancehall and so on. Because sound system dances were one of the few things poor people on the island could call their own, the parties became central to downtown life and the local economy. Competition for the best equipment and the most exciting music was fierce and became the driving force behind the evolution of the island’s music industry as sound system owners turned to record producing.

For fifty years, the natural medium for Jamaican modern music has been the sound system dances. The music was produced and designed specifically for sound systems to play, and for the enjoyment of the people attending the dances. Wherever Jamaicans have traveled, from London to New York and beyond, sound systems have been part of their luggage. The legacy of sound system culture can be found in many forms of popular music around the world.

Come join us and enjoy the sound system culture, the boardwalk, the beach, the pier, and the perfect soundtrack to the season. ///
