Shabazz Palaces - Blast It (from the Village Beat film, Tough Bond).
Shabazz Palaces - An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum (not the video) from Sub Pop Records.
Tough Bond (2011) from Village Beat [Movie Trailer].
Tough Bond is an urgent message from Africa that documents the disappearance of the village, told through the lives of 3 Kenyan street kids, hustling, sniffing glue, surviving in a parallel society with no tribe but the one they create for themselves. Shot over two years, we lived with our characters and followed their stories from the most rural villages of the country to the hearts of its biggest slums.
* Original score by Shabazz Palaces

We are currently raising funds to return to Kenya with the finished film and show it everywhere. We’ll hang sheets from buildings and fire up the generator. We’ll park the truck where the road ends and project it. We’ll assemble thousands and play it loud. Help us do this tour.
