This month’s AFRO-DUB SESSIONS will feature an Africa-inspired guest set by AMIR from the world-renown record-collecting duo Kon and Amir.

For years, AMIR has been sharing his ridiculously deep knowledge of music by compiling rare grooves for Kon and Amir’s legendary Kings of Diggin’, On Track, and Off Track releases on BBE Records. This includes the just-released Off Track III mix CD, which features eclectic African disco and soul from the period following Fela Kuti’s mid-70s creative peak.

AMIR also heads the record label arm of Wax Poetics magazine.

The night also will feature two performances by SUPER HI-FI, the resident Afro-Dub band which has been packing the house with their creative melding of Afrobeat and Dub.

SLF resident DJ’s LINH, Q-MASTAH and LIL TIGER will keep the party popping on the decks. And of course, the party is FREE all night long.
