Stereognosis® combines epic heavyweight beatboxers with virtuoso percussionists and stringed instrumentalists from the Middle East and Africa. Our 11 track LP, Departure, presents hard-hitting, modern, urban beats which converse fluently with ancient folkloric melodies and rhythms from the cradle of civilization. Recorded by LA engineer Phillip Broussard at RMV studio in Stockholm, our album offers a fresh musical experience created through bold cross-cultural collaboration. Songs featuring our 10 master musicians are combined with dance performance by b-boy Neguin and graffiti artwork by Ashekman. The entire project was captured in the forthcoming documentary, Urban Beats & Ancient Melodies: The Stereognosis Story.
