BEATS ANTIQUE, an oakland based group featuring ZOE JAKES, DAVID SATORI, AND SIDECAR TOMMY, have stumbled down the rabbit hole and emerged anew on the other side. COLLIDE is a product of that absurd adventure, forging a curious alliance between middle eastern traditions and potent west coast circus, underground hip hop, breakbeat brass band, downtempo, glitch and dubstep. BEATS ANTIQUE'S second album has brought the paradox of electro-acoustic music into the future.

Hello Friends,
Thought it was time for a brief update. The past month has been full of interesting adventures. We had a blast on tour with the bass legend Les Claypool from PRIMUS! The Do Labs Lucent L’amour Festival in Los Angeles was a love fest for the record books. We are having a great video being cut from that as we speak. Northern California showed us a wild time with a SOLD OUT show at the Arcata Theater!!! This week we’re gearing up for our first time at SXSW Festival in Austin TX, which we are truly excited about. We also have a bunch of spring tour dates to let you all know about including another Texas 3 day tour with Mr. Claypool!!!

Beats Antique still is in the midst of finishing Contraption Vol II which will be a full length CD! So keep your ears open over the next 2 months !!!

Hello,

Beats Antique here with some rip-roaring announcments.

We’ve had quite a year so far, ringing in the new year with two SOLD OUT shows in San Francisco, then a crazy Olympic torch ceremony in Canada and down to the tropics of Costa Rica. We’ve been hard at work in the studio finishing up brand new tracks and in rehearsals coming up with brand new performances.

As Beats Antique returns from a successful experience performing at burning man, 10 times, we brush off the dust and begin the next phase…..

This weekend Beats Antique is in Colorado playing at Monolith, Ft. Collins, and Boulder.  Our gracious hosts and musical cohorts Lynx & Janover are sharing the bill with us in Ft. Collins and Boulder.

Monolith festival has us playing on the madeloud.com stage on sunday at 3:30 for a showcase of music selected through sonicbids.com – immediately after that we will be rocking out to The Glitch Mob on the mainstage at Red Rocks Ampitheatre!

wish us luck!
