Diwon's DREAMS IN STATIC (Free Downloads)
Download 3 free singles by DREAMS IN STATIC from their upcoming 21 track instrumental album, Serene Poetic. The Free download link includes, "If On A Winter", Theta" & "What You Did" feat. Dov. If you aren't familiar with this amazing music, it has been said, "If hip hop is dead to the underground and rock is dead to the mainstream, "Serene Poetic" resurrects the two and blends their elements into one sonic sonnet." Dreams in Static is the latest project of Diwon who has joined together once again with Dugans, of Shir HaShirim fame. The duo have tapped into the cinematic space of sonic dreams. The walls of sound that flow throughout Dreams of Static's debut record are the balance of Diwon, the hip hop producer from Brooklyn and Dugans, the guitar slinging rocker from Austin. The music jumps genres blending nu-beat, indie, world & psychadelia all with a distinctly "Dreams" sound. As I listen to their record over and over again, it conjures up the aesthetics of James Bond, Prefuse 73, Pulp Fiction & the Portishead walking the line of the forgotten, but familiar with the unexpected and fresh. An album full of emotion, life, beauty and depth without one singular voice. An instrumental master piece that resurrects the guitar and live instrumental music which pops in a world where popular music has been left in a state of static and midi sounds. "Serene Poetic", their debut instrumental record, will be in stores this winter. A year or so later the second record will be released, this one featuring singings from around the world.

Diwon's Sabra Sessions Vol. 1 (Free Download):


Grab a free download of "SABRA SESSIONS VOL. 1" - a high energy Israeli dance club hip hop influenced mix by Diwon, the American-Israeli DJ/Producer extraordinaire behind the Shemspeed label. The listener hears Diwon remixing, choppin up, slowing down, speeding up, and sampling all types of sounds to create a seamless mix of seemingly disjointed tracks that sound like Israel landed on top of Daft Punk & M.I.A.'s studio. "Sabra Sessions" is a mixtape I was driven to do," commented Diwon, "where I remixed, chopped, and sped up Israeli and Hebrew music to the style of Baltimore and Miami club music and beyond." The Sabra Sessions makes for a festive and energetic blend into Israeli culture, Hebrew music, and the sounds that move people to dance floors worldwide. Enjoy it and feel free to blast it to your emails, blogs, facebook groups, twitters...and all.

"Diwon is something else …in a profound kind of way. The New Yorker gets crafty when it comes to beats by extracting world music—mainly traditional Yemenite music-- and fusing it with electro hip hop; creating a titillating sound that’s juicy and for the ears. His musical influence developed from his migration from Yemen to Ethiopia to Israel. Among his myriad of aliases, he is better known as Erez Safar a producer/drummer/DJ/as necessary singer, who champions himself on representing Jewish culture to the fullest. When he’s not on the 1’s and 2’s, he’s busy running Shemspeed (music website) and Modular Moods (independent record label) and a couple of music festivals. Check out Idan Raichel vs. Kid Sister from his remix album That Yemenite Kid. Yeah, it’s fire." - Nicole Dawley, URB Magazine
