An Introduction To Deep Disco – Live Mix By Egon

If you’re looking for something to take up 30 minutes of your time and you’ve already rewatched every episode of The Office on Netflix (including “Diversity Day,” twice) then you should take some time to get into Deep Disco with Egon’s mix, now up at Spotify. It’s a live mix of tracks from our Soul-Cal anthology and related music, some of which hasn’t made it up on to digital distribution services, and some of which we’ve been trying to get sorted out for reissue for some time.

Listen – Madlib and Egon with Gilles Peterson on Worldwide FM

In September, Egon joined Madlib to meet with Gilles Peterson in his legendary Brownswood basement studio in London to talk about… well…. music. From LA’s jazz scene from the 1950s until the present day, to Madlib’s favorite Weldon Irvine song, to how one can continue burning the fire of musical discovery throughout one’s life, it’s a free wheeling conversation interspersed with great music.

Egon and Madlib with Ethiopian funk legend Ayalew Mesfin: Short Film Via Vice’s Noisey

Watch Egon and Madlib investigate Ethiopia’s 70s music scene with Ayalew Mesfin in this short film via Noisey

Earlier this year, Now-Again partnered with Vinyl Me, Please to issue Ethiopian funk legend Ayalew Mesfin’s Hasabe (My Worries) album; around the release of the album Egon traveled with Madlib to Denver to produce a special Madlib Medicine Show event around the release of the album, and Mesfin performed live.

Vice’s Noisey documented the proceedings and caught up with Egon, Madlib and Mesfin as they met, discussed and celebrated music. Watch it below.

Ayalew Mesfin is among the legends of the 1970s Ethiopian musical scene – his music is some of the funkiest to arise from this unconquerable East African nation. Ayalew was forced underground by the Derg regime that took control of the country in 1974. Now, over 40 years later, his triumphant return – and the first time that his music has been presented in album form – gives us a chance to discover a rare & beautiful moment in music history. MORE
