Ballast
Plug Research
HIP HOP
> Internationally acclaimed (a past nominee for GILLES PETERSON\'s Worldwide Winners and the LA WEEKLY MUSIC Awards and heavily rotated on CARLOS NIÑO\'s Spaceways Radio) for his inspired and at times surreal songwriting, soulful voice and eerie, unique production.
> DAMON AARON is poised to reach the next level with \'Ballast\' his first official full-length release, long over due for a career in music that has lasted more than 15 years.
> Aaron\'s music fuses influences as diverse as NICK DRAKE, MISSISSIPPI JOHN HURT, folkloric music of West Africa, LEE SCRATCH PERRY, KING TUBBY and even DJ PREMIER.
> He has lent his guitar and voice to the recordings and tour efforts of TELEFON TEL AVIV, SOFA SURFERS and BUILD AN ARK. He\'s been included on a couple of very innovative and seminal compilations \'Funky Precedent Volume 1\' and \'Dublab Presents: Freeways\' alongside greats like MADLIB, JURRASIC 5, DIALATED PEOPLES, DNTEL, DAEDELUS, MIA DOI TODD and many others.
> Aaron emerges with his best work to date, an 11-song meditation that flows and shimmers like the sun reflecting over the stream.
> It\'s an album that gives you a taste of funk and a taste of folk. It\'s an album that you\'ll sing along to while you fade into its many depths.
> Perfect for fans of JACK JOHNSON or AL GREEN.
> CMJ \"His measured crooning over a sliced-and-diced acoustic evokes Seal backed by Tortoise.\"… LA WEEKLY \"Imagine that Van Morrison had grown up in a time of hip-hop beats\".
