Musick that Needed Work - S: Suns of Arqa

 

Suns of Arqa was created by Michael Wadada (Michael Albert Ward or Michael Mafia) in 1979. Suns of Arqa is a sonic mission that began when Michael received higher guidance while working with roots reggae chanter Prince Far-I  in Jamaica. 

 



Suns of Arqa as a prolific travelling music collective has been continuously investigating the supernatural potential hidden in the ancient Hindustani raga systems. with Piobaireachd & Nyabinghi roots drumming, creating ritualistic world music infused with Dub & reggae, deeply spiritual vibrations that merges cultures, faiths, & musical genres. The lyrics combine both mystical & sensory elements, often including prayer, referencing a higher power but finding roots in experiences common to all people: memory; sight; physical sensation.

Mixed by none other than Adran Rydims (Adrian Sherwood).
