Rootah – Strasse E – Vol. 1 (mixtape)

18
Oct

Volume 1 of the Strasse E mixtape series by Rootah, who was a resident DJ at a local Leipzig techno club and obsessive record digger in the 1990s before starting Jahtari.

Lost & re-discovered, this first cassette was recorded in the early 2000s, mostly focusing on what was happening between Berlin, Detroit, Munich, Vienna and Chicago.

Great energy in this mix with lots of bangers that aged remarkably well, from a time before Discogs, Youtube or Shazam.

Comes with artwork by David Farris, with added hand-drawn Neon vibes. Limited copies!

18
Oct

Experimental Deephouse Afro-futurism album by Dub poetry free spirit Jasmine Tutum and OG Jahtari crew disrupt & Rootah as The Other Others, oscillating between spaced out soundscapes, floaty hoovers and heavy movers.

Tokyo-born, grown up in Jamaica and living in Germany (with various stops in-between) Jasmine’s wild biography translates into sonic territory with this LP, drawing inspiration from Grace Jones and Theo Parrish, newworldaquarium and Roger Robinson alike.

Vinyl edition includes all lyrics. Also coming as limited glow-in-the-dark tapes edition!

Probably the very first proper Jahtari tracks ever made, those two raw gems from a Net-7″ from 2004 are finally appearing on vinyl through Turtle Isle Records.

Two really cool Rootah and disrupt lofi jams on some Wackies riddims (probably), with a cracked Ableton Live… Lots of love for this one.

Very limited copies!
