Shaham Ohana aka Chakamoon is a very talented multi-instrumentalist and singer.He released his album "You & Me" in 2005. I think this is an amazing song and video. (directed by:Kutiman)
Axum's club Banger single was released in Nov 2006.It originally included Kalabata's dirty bass remix. Here are two more: a bouncy Baltimore Club remix by Ido Wido of the infamous Soulico,and a laidback remix by Cohen of the famous Cohen@Mushon. There are some more bootleg remixes around Emule...I'll try to look for them too...

We made this remix long time ago...however,we were too late to be included on the single so we played this only at soulico parties and always got great crowd feedback !
This is the first single by GOG,a joint venture of Isreael's dub king Laroz and Gilad Cahana,from the infamous group Girafot. This song is about Ehud Olmert,Our corrupted prime minister and his 9 souls.
Asaf Amdursky's big hit "15 Minutes" was released in 1998 as a CD single and later on his album "Silent Engines". Asaf played his new album to me and asked which song do I want to remix. this one was the definite candidate! I got all the tracks on DAT and used an E-Mu sampler for all the audio stuff and an Atari computer for sequencing.It's much easier nowdays with current technology thats for sure ! due to the nature of local singles which only reach to radio dj's,this remix was never really heard of ! so here's your chance,10 years later ! MP3 Download: 15 Minutes (Sabbo Remix)(Right Click and Save As)
Remixing this song evolved into more work with Asaf.I've co-produced "Bamarbolet" with him,I also co-produced the "Silent Engines" Tour,and performed with his band live on MPC,synth and scratching. Here's "Bamarbolet" Video:
This is the "Laroz Soundsystem" (Laroz,Sabbo,Kuti,Axum & Shimon) tearin' the roof at the Barzilay club 7/nov/2007. This tune is called "Music Desire" from Axum's forthcoming album. Stay tuned !
we were asked to do a cover version for an Israeli song of our choise for local pop singer "Daniel Zilberstein". the original song was by Lehaka Retorit.an indie/new wave band from the 80's. I always liked this song (and the bassline!).This version never really got the exposure and the airplay I think it deserves...
Soulico's critically acclaimed first mixtape,voted as the best mixtape ever released in Israel by Walla! , Israel's leading online news.Originally released in April 2004 ! People keep on asking for it but we ran out of copies long time ago. Tracklist (in hebrew)
Ortega sent me the acapella and although I'm way too busy right now with finishing and mixing Axum's album,I had to remix it ! This tune created quite a buzz in the local hiphop community and started a remix contest (with no prize...) I'll try and post the other remixes as well.

We are proud to present Soulico's new FREE mixtape titled Archeology: A Deep Dig Into Israeli Grooves.
It's an hour full of Hasidic Disco, Spirutal Soul, Yamanite Funk, Turkish Acid Rock, Arabic Jazz & much more, all recorded & released in Israel by local musicians & artists in the 70's and early 80's. most of the tunes were never reissued on CD and were fairly obscure even when they originally came out. This is the result of a decade of digging in Tel-Aviv's record shops & Flea markets. Special thanks to Mad Decent for posting the mixtape too.
