“The Brooklyn Word” is a series of urban tales told through Hip Hop, Soul, Funk, AfroBeat and House. Multimedia 5D concept produced and filmed by Gibril Kuyateh. Multimedia in that 5 experimental films will be released on www.gikumusic.com that will draw you further into the world of The Brooklyn Word.
5D (5 dimensional) in the way the sounds are mixed/layered and purposely distorted at times to dig into your senses. The 2 most popular tracks will get turned to vids. I’m still experimenting and perfecting it, but you should be able to turn the volume completely up and the sound will maintain its structural integrity.
Great attention was paid to every little detail and nuance of this project. Once things began, it just flowed and I began connecting to it in a different and organic way. Producing wasn’t enough, I had to explore a deeper artistic fantasy and allow it to take over. And it did…
Relax your mind in whatever manner you choose, turn up loudly, lay out and enjoy the soundcape… powered by Brooklyn Radio & Fusicology
