I’ve posted about the ART IN THE DANCEHALL exhibition a few times now, and I actually made it over to Subliminal Projects to check out the opening. It was great. So nice to see dancehall-related content in a well-respected gallery space here in LA. Shimmy Shimmy and Al Fingers have done an amazing job curating this and getting it seen. Here are a couple of pics.
Some Selector gear is available as part of the Nepenthes Hells Kitchen Music Society collaboration with Deadly Dragon Sound.
