Rooted in the cultural exchange between the U.S.A., Puerto Rico, and Africa, the project machinates an intersection between soul, punk, salsa, doowop, jazz, funk, the avant-garde, and rap traditions, filtered through a distinctly New York City sensibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ensemble’s practice is characterized by a mischievous alliance with ephemerality, lived experience, and site-specific signification with works often distributed unexpectedly and within limited physical windows. This emphasis on transience and communal memory remains central to the project’s ethos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn \u003cem\u003eSOTC “II”\u003c\/em\u003e the New York outfit channels said philosophy into a 15-track album recorded by bandleader Gio Escobar and core collaborators Jack “Wacko” Nolan, Buz “Man-man” Donald, and Clérida “Ca$h Clay” Eltimé. The result is a tense, genre-defacing record that exists between fried psychedelia, rock-n-roll, no-wave rap, r\u0026amp;b, and post-hardcore energy; a mirror to a national moment of searching for meaning\/nothing\/sounds\/silence\/creation\/or destruction, through an overarching instability, alienation, decline, and refusal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatured artists include: The Warlockettes, Ladybug Mecca, Styles P, Bubba Dupree, Claudette Ortiz, Sonia Sanchez, Solange, Danny Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack vinyl version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill it ever be the same?
