hey fellow astronauts,

jacob morales, a young fan of us who is also an ambitious musician, wrote a book about us. we were stoked when he approached us with this idea and we found some time to answer questions for this project. as we´re are busy guys it took a while to complete this but now he was able to finish it.

he offers this for free to the world. so go read it or download it from this link:

much respect & love to jacob morales for having the interest and investing the time and energy to work on this project. sorry if we were slow lazy cats sometimes when you were waiting for your answers 🙂

we hope you enjoy those deeper infos about us and our music.

one love

 

new video

happy new year!!!

here is the brand  new video of our song “Still A Soldier (DJ Brace Remix)”. the video was produced, edited and visually overdubbed by our visual  wizard Uli Sigg and we LOVE this. we hope you do too. feel free to spread, share, comment or just vibe with it:

Pure Magic

Kabanjak, one half of Ancient Astronauts, and our favorite scratch dj and canadian beat maker par excellence, DJ Brace, found together and worked hard on a collaboration since they met in germany in 2011. the result is a deep and dope brew of magic music that will catch you from the first note.

This is out NOW on our label Switchstance Recordings and you can prelisten and directly purchase downloads through our Bandcamp store. Vinyl is also in the making, so please follow our activities on facebook, twitter, blog, etc to know when it´s out.

here you go:

Peace & Democracy

happy halloween,

we hope all of our friends in the US are safe and were not harmed by hurricane Sandy.

our labelmate and soulbrother Astroboter will soon release his Beat Sutras Vol.1 on tape (yes, real tape) and digital download. it´s a great collection of beats and sound ideas based on samples, twisted and cut together by our man Astroboter. he just sent us this video for one of the tunes on Beat Sutras Vol.1 and we have to say that this fits to the zeitgeist of people all over the world who want nothing more than peace and democracy. how far can peace go? do we really live in a democracy? greed is getting stronger on planet earth and most wars get started because of claim of territory, religion or oil. at the end of the day it all means power. but it´s the power and wealth of just a few and not the majority of a nation, not by the real people and citizens of a country. the normal people just wanna live in peace, with respect for each other. they want their voices to be heard. they want their voices to count. that´s democracy.

let´s not only pray for more peace and democracy, let´s unite and spread love!!!

Rumbullion

Hey guys,

it´s me, Kabanjak. Some of you may know my other project called Deela. This is and always was my outlet on Switchstance Recordings for Latin and Afro influenced urban club music. I´m talking heavy percussive riddims with lots of Bass thrown in. Latin and African music was always a big passion for me and now i completed a new full length album for my Deela project. I hope you dig this and spread the word for it and pump it through the clubs.

you can purchase this directly through our Switchstance Bandcamp page:

Peace & Beatz

Kabanjak

Neva Stop

good day fam,

Reggae music is in the air. not only because it is summer time but also because we built a Dancehall Reggae instrumental riddim for German magazine Sound & Recording. the asked us to do a producer tutorial for them and produce a “typical” Dancehall riddim. well, as you might guess, this was pure fun for us. you know we do this because we love this. because we think we have to put more quality and more consciousness out in this world. and now there come´s this magazine and asks us to do some Dancehall Reggae? hellyeahhh was our reaction to this request 🙂

and because we love to share more Reggae music with the world we give this special riddim out for FREE. we called it “Neva Stop Riddim” because we will never stop to release conscious music. so if you feel this please feel free to share this with your friends and loved ones.

one love
