AraabMUZIK + Party Supplies
Winnie, Timbre and Scion Canada present AraabMUZIK and Party Supplies with djs Tristan Orchard and Relly Rels Saturday November 19th at Electric Owl.
AraabMUZIK is one of the members of the Dipset crew and recently received best new music from pitchfork for his album Electronic Dreams. The music mixes sampler based hip hop with dance music, dare I say trance and pitch shifted vocals in a delightful “thizzed” out manner.
Also on board, Party Supplies of A-Trak’s Fools Gold records. He has a new mix tape out now with some top notch remixes and a few original compositions.

Araabmuzik has been well known in rap circles for years. But more recently he’s been bubbling up outside of hip hop. If you’ve seen ANY of the hundreds of videos on this guy, it’s no wonder the Dipset producer is touring more and more with bookings at nightclubs and festivals.
check out this lil’ documentary piece on him… skip to 3:45 if you’re restless.
