Soma Mestizo:
It’s a stimulation of both the intellectual side of us and the side that really wants to dance.
The professor got her groove on…yes Martha you can care about the environment; want to smack the sh-t out of war mongers; work to put an end to all the bad –isms and all the while shake your cute white, black, brown, yellow, red, indescribable, indefinable ass. How? Well sit down Martha we gotta a story to tell: Soma Mestizo is 21st century music made by elements seen, felt and heard from all centuries proceeding.
Soma Mestizo brings an artistic precision to the medium of music. The poetry and prose of the lyrics melds with the sensual guitar, percussion and bass team up mimicking pulsating blood of the unseen but felt soul.
Soma Mestizo means "a body of mixtures" and the name, in the case of Soma Mestizo, is the thing: Indigenous meets technology, sex meets holiness, love meets truth. Christiane D. explains, the process is as complex as the arrangements and as organic as the experience: “Any song, sound, chord, idea needs to have been through the blender of the myriad-flipped-oblique-spinning-twisted-backwards turned inside out revolution.”
Soma Mestizo: the deep, dark, sexy global genre busting, booty-shaking, head-filling magic music. As experienced on the following releases: Life of a Toy, Interim I, Peepshow, Silversun-ep, NO War, Interim II, IR 4, Telomere, and Nasty Boy on Strobotics Recording.
