I’m not sure how Oakland based trio ‘Beats Antique’ have managed to slip under my radar for this long, but Zoe Jakes, David Satori and Sidecar Tommy have been forging a musical coalition of middle eastern influenced glitchy breakbeat. These kids are not your typical experimental world fusion band, they describe their sound as, “electro, xfunctional, acoustic, hip-hop, melodramatic, down tempo-freakness, world, gypsy, funk, vulcan, get down off your butt, sound.”
Make sure to catch these kids on day 3 (Sunday) of Coachella 12’.
