Death Grips are a hip hop group from Sacramento, California. They play an aggressive and dark style of experimental hip hop with a harsh vocal range using irregular meter and a frequently overdriven recording quality.

We monitor many frequencies. We listen always. Came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. It
played us a mighty dub.” – Neuromancer
The international duo of Fujako returns to Angstrom Records with Soul Buzz, a short but intense six-track
salvo of earth shaking, gritty electronic music featuring DC’s Black Saturn.
Uniting over a love of echo, bass and space, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha, from Portugal, and Nicolas Esterle,
from Belgium via France, came together to form Fujako with a desire to make music of “unlooped hip hop and
telluric dub from the geological strata.” Exiling themselves to a remote mountainous area of central Portu-
gal, Fujako re-emerged in 2009 with a debut album that crystallised their intent with a righteous sound and
fury. Soul Buzz, recorded between Porto and Brussels, continues their lifelong dedication to sonic alchemy
with thundering bass, cavernous spaces and beat up rhythms combining to speak a mighty dub into the liste-
