Sundiatta O.M. is a percussionist (and vocalist I think) that recorded an album with Ron Trent (and Chez Damier) for Prescription towards the end of their initial run. It's a nice double-pack, I think, and sort of signalled the direction Ron Trent would move towards from then on, especially as he started collaborating with Anthony Nicholson thereafter. It was one of the first really organic records he produced, IIRC. Sundiatta also performed at one (or two???) of the DEMF's? I think he may have been the drummer who played with Derrick May at the first one, and for some reason I recall something related to the Lost Poets??? Lots of half-memories here. At any rate, that record is nice. :) Came out around '97 I think. Derrick Carter featured the track with all the political crap at the beginning of his disc of the three-disc Back to Basics tin. My favorite Derrick Carter mix. Tristan ======= Text/Mixes: http://www.phonopsia.co.uk Music: http://www.mp313.com Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
