🌌#ArtIsAWeapon ALL.OF.THIS!! #Blacktronika 🖤🎼
Reposted from @blacktronika @kingbritt We are proud to present the debut of Blacktronika : Brooklyn edition at the iconic @publicrecordsnyc Public Records / The Nursery.
Sunday July 30, 2023
Tickets:
Blacktronika : #AfrofuturismInElectronicMusic is a college course, created by @KingBritt for the University of California San Diego, that honors all the pioneers of color that continue to contribute to the advancement of electronic music. The class has included everyone from Herbie Hancock to Moor Mother to Flying Lotus.
The etymology of the word Blacktronika stems from the original #Blacktronica events of the early 2000s curated by London’s #CharlieDark. With his blessing we utilized the name for the permanent course which has turned into a festival as of last year, with events at UC San Diego and MoCA / Geffen Contemporary in Los Angeles.
For this edition of the festival we are honored to have a stellar line up. This includes, the legendary hip hop heroes, #AntipopConsortium, aligning perfectly with the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop, an exclusive live beat set by the magical #OrionSun, whose following may not know this side of her. Pulitzer Prize winner, Dr. Tyshawn Sorey and Professor King Britt will perform live together, reflecting the critically acclaimed album Tyshawn & King, exploring rhythms like you have never heard. Intergalactic lover and artist, Vikter Duplaix will be spinning his late night “across the board” sounds. Charlie Dark MBE of Attica Blues fame (and original Blacktronica) will be taking us on a music journey across the globe with his iconic, no frills approach to djing. King Britt will give an emotional 3hrs set as only he can do and last but not least, global sonic icon, #MariaChavez will dj outside and inside, giving us a taste of her vast knowledge and dance floor skills (yes dance floor selections for the inside set).
In The Nursery we will have the live day time component. In the evening we take over Public Records for the DJ focused portion.
There will also be a beautiful panel on the history of @Blacktronika w/ @kingbritt @daddydarkrdc moderated by @vikterduplaix.

ILL POETIC ACCEPTED INTO UC-SAN DIEGO COMPUTER MUSIC PhD PROGRAM
From Ill Poetic - "I'm proud to announce that I've been accepted into the @ucsdmusic Computer Music PhD Program. It's been a long and perilous road, but I made it!
From Trotwood, Ohio. From battle raps at Top Cats and making beats above a bagel shop in Cincinnati to right here. From flying to San Diego 8 years ago, living in a Motel 6 in search of our new life, hanging on by the tiniest threads...to right here.
A few thoughts:
I've been an undergrad at UCSD for two exhilarating years. Most people in this program just know me as Tim, but none of this would have been possible without "Ill Poetic". Every album I've released was on my application CV. Every tour, every festival, @definition_music_llc, @beatbox_records, it all mattered. I'm sharing this for the young, dedicated, talented indie artists out here booking tours, mixing client records, selling beats and putting out albums trying to get this month's rent paid. It's tough to make that hustle last and stay sane. But it matters.
You can bring those accomplishments into an academic space where you're incentivized to expand your artistry and mind. This world is hungry for curious artists from the outside to influence it and though challenging, the doors are far more open than you'd assume. For the past two years it has been my job to learn new things and apply them to creative endeavors. I now get to continue down that path, and perhaps transition this into teaching at university level myself one day. When the times comes, I really invite some of my artist friends to explore this option.
In closing, I clearly did not do this alone. As always, thank you to my wife, my son, my dad, my team, my friends, and the faculty at both San Diego City College and UCSD Music (especially @kingbritt) for their unwavering support and belief in me. It's beyond humbling. A special thank you to my mom: she would be in tears to hear me tell her this. I would too. But I truly like to think her energy is floating through the universe nudging doors open for me to push my way through. Thank you mom. And thank you all for the years of support.
I have a few more exciting announcements to share in the coming weeks. Onward to the next great adventure."

I couldn’t find this CD for soooo long! I even tried to cop it off Discogs and the seller sent me the remixes (you don’t know how heated I was) 🤬 Been determined to find my copy and I finally did! Then I realized I no longer have a CD player!! 😩 WTF!!! Y’all don’t understand how much I love this record! #salute @kingbritt 🙏🏾 #kingbritt #thereason #whenthefunkhitsthefan (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zjVrGhmN0/?igshid=sz6xohg03zkl

Had a great week with Philly legend King Britt, visualizing and recording sound!
We took walks around our neighborhood with mics, capturing a variety of sounds, and then were guided through making them into loops by King, sketching what we heard during the process.
These loops will be part of a live performance 10/14 in Malcolm X Park for Monument Lab!
