Beatspoke (Barcelona / Spain) - "No Rush" (2008 in|phusion)

 

Beatspoke is organic soul and gritty truth. Sub-bass lines and unpredictable beats, melodies and lyrics tell of personal trials, growth and consciousness in world that is in dire need of change. DJ Vadim describes it as ¨hard beats, singing, poetry, synth b lines, like a down tempo Bugz in the Attic vs. Spacek vs. guys in Detroit like Wajeed and J Dilla..¨

The project began in 2003 when Sarah Gessler (USA) moved to Barcelona and met native producer Josh Fontan (SP) through joining the underground music scene. Since then they have been performing in festivals and clubs in Europe and the USA playing alongside artists such as Bonobo, Zero DB, Prefuse 73, Bugz in the Attic, Elliot Lipp, Rich Medina, Foreign Beggars, Al-Haca and DJ2D2 amongst others.

Josh also forms part of the Spanish Hip Hop duo Debilorithmicos (Pulpa) and is currently working with RQM (Al-Haca) on his live solo project. Sarah also works with various artists but is most recently collaborating with DJ Vadim on his new album.
