Search - Various Artists :: Reboot: Notes for the Next Generation

NextAid, the LA-based humanitarian organization, has partnered with Om Records to release this benefit compilation containing unreleased tracks by some of the most recognizable and respected producers, artists, and DJs from the world of electronic music such as Thievery Corporation, Louie Vega, Mark Farina, Marques Wyatt, Afro-Mystik, and many more. There are a myriad of styles on this release, from afro-beat, spoken word poetry, and soulful house, to dub reggae and Om lounge-style down-tempo. All proceeds from the net wholesale will go directly towards NextAid's efforts for development of sustainable (environmentally sound) projects, structures, and education in African communities that provide basic needs and long-term solutions to the millions of African children orphaned by AIDS. Says Om Records President Chris Smith, "'reBOOT' is our attempt to humanize the problem of AIDS in Africa...the album is a labor of love for everyone involved."
