In addition to those two, you also seen the return of Zensoul, the afro-indigenous hiphop duo who’s been a familiar name to the THOPFest lineup before. Just seeing him rock a crowd at the Firewater became one of the more engaging acts to see in person.

The album was released under House Shoes‘ Street Corner Music record label.īesides Sndtrak being one of the main guests on the lineup, you also had the Grammy nominated engineer/super producer Khrysis rocking out on the turntables, playing some of his memorable hits he produced for a number of artists.
This time around they’ve brought in to JAMLA guests, with one of them being the newest member of the Soul Council. There’s avant-garde accordion from Pauline Oliveros, traditional banjo playing from Irish folk legend Margaret Barry and a new collaboration between Seoul and Buenos Aires for flute and cello by the duo DASOMxVIOLETA.If you were in Ontario last Saturday, then you’d heard about the pop-up shops that 60 East have been throwing for the past few months in preparation for the upcoming THOPFest event in October.
In the wake of opening this box of memories, she curates a special mixtape for Late Junction to transport you far away.Įlsewhere in the show we’ll be marking the changing of the seasons with twilight-inspired sounds, ahead of the clocks going back this weekend. Her latest release is a double whammy - two collections of recordings made between 20, a process she’s described as ‘opening a box filled with memories’. Often described as an instrumental storyteller, Lattimore is drawn to songs that say a lot with no words both as a player and as a listener, reaching for a space where ‘the melody line is a sentence in itself’. Raised on classical compositions and The Cure, her own music is inspired by her own experiences of nature and heartbreak as well as poems, imagined tales and news stories. Verity Sharp presents an ethereal mixtape from Los Angeles-based harpist and composer Mary Lattimore.
