Gonjasufi reissuing first release on limited cassette run
Producer and DJ, Gonjasufi has announced his plan to re-release his first four albums under his real name, Sumach.
Among these is the self-produced, Dead Midget On Stilts, which was originally released in 2002 on a CDR. Initially heard by a limited few, the LA musician plans to change that by putting the record back out there on a limited cassette run of 300 copies.
As FACT note, Gonjasufi will be re-releasing Dead Midget On Stilts through his own A.I.R. label.
Here’s what he said on the matter:
“Thanks to those who already know, who bought a cd off me back when I was selling these hand to hand. Your support got me here to where I’m at! And for those who didn’t know, in these recordings you’ll hear the same raw, crazy out-there lo-fi space dirt crunch of my Warp releases, and plus some of what a lot of you haven’t heard. Some just don’t know where I come from…these are my roots right here and some of my rawest work to date. I listen to this record and think, how the f*ck did I come up with this sh*t…”
In other news, Jay Z’s 12th album Magna Carta Holy Grail dropped today and it features a track called ‘Nickels and Dimes’ which is a sample from Gonjasufi’s MU.ZZ.LE. from 2011. You can listen to that here.
