Gonjasufi - Sufi and a Killer

Have you ever wondered, if yoga had a sound, what would that be? The answer lies within the album of an extraordinary gentleman, Gonjasufi, titled "A Sufi and a Killer".
The San Diego-born Gonjasufi(real name Sumach Ecks) was discovered by Warp records after a feature on Flying Lotus' song "Testament" and was subsequently signed.
His debut LP is a real revolution; His voice is a filthier-than-hell mixture of his Ethiopian and Mexican roots, leading to an almost ethereal result, something that is enriched by the presence of LA's-finest The Gaslamp KIller.
Every track takes you on a virtual journey, having Mr Ecks voice as a superb guide; "Ancestors" is like a spiritual quest into the desert, whereas "Kobwebz" makes you feel like entering a Middle-Eastern harem. In conclusion, it's a really sensational album by the 32 years-old yoga teacher and it seems almost a certainty that Gonjasufi is here to stay.
