Gonjasufi - Sheep

[ChiVic64]

favorite track from the tape. i almost forgot how much i like this album, i've had it on repeat this whole week in the car on the way to and from school.

[bomedley7]

This sucks

[r4ltman]

piss

[1idkmybffjill1]

I first heard this song while in a car, stoned out of my mind. I swear, I found myself during this song. It was amazing.

[STUDIOhLaust]

It's funny reading all of the "enlightened" comments when all the symbolism in this song is incredibly surface and the song's direction shows opinion, not insight.

That being said, I do still enjoy the song quite a bit.

[Tengent]

When the female voice comes in I'm in flying.

[cacaorocks]

i smoke only ganja after this

[korinthios1000]

Just Perfect...

[vijaygodard]

S.p Balasubramaniam - the man singing at the end of the track.

[psurajit01]

@vijaygodard Actually it's Suresh Wadkar.

[vijaygodard]

@psurajit01 My mistake.

[Ajagodkin]

[chlatin]

fan _1::

[LOGIC42369]

damn this is nice

[AcidHouseMatt]

Great song but I have to say I like the motherfuckin Gaslamp killer! better..

[LfunkeyA]

the hilarious thing is that in the original song's video (Yeh Hawa Yeh Fizaa), there's a dude who does some vocals and looks very much like the Gaslamp Killer :D

[Mentalwarfare78]

I got this cd used at Ear X Tacy, 7 bucks. What a steal

[ArtAmonTobin]

I wish I was a sheep instead of a lion....

cause then I wouldn't have to eat animals that are dying...Oh how I wish I was

One of your gentle sheep only made out of love....

like a bird in retreat....

[Mentalwarfare78]

Great music. I am lion, wish I were a sheep.

[FlamSalad]

@Mentalwarfare78 Im a sheep and loving every second

[AleekahTV]

I feel like I walked into a time machine and stepped on the set of a Brady Bunch episode...well until the 3:01 mark.

[getmoneystayreal]

can anyone tell me where i can buy all of his material? not gonna bother downloading...i support real musicians,thanks.

[sharpsuitedmod]

@getmoneystayreal pretty hard to buy anything pre sufi and a killer. i think they were very limited releases.

[everlastingcrys]

@getmoneystayreal I have quite a bit of his stuff and I just went to the music store and got them to order it for me. didnt have to wait too long. I got the newest one before its release date. It might be harder in other places maybe

[Seedr0]

Vegan pride. Or... herd.

[yayesable]

so sweet

[totesforgoats]

last thursday i drew gonjasufi on my hand during school and asked him for wisdom.

[bragtheface]

@totesforgoats why hes a musician you nipple.

[bragtheface]

@totesforgoats sorry still cant get over this.

that comment is just so dense...i mean really!? fucking REALLY?

and 14 likes? christ

[TimUrgent]

@totesforgoats ur retarded

[bragtheface]

@totesforgoats this has 95 thumbs up!?

My GOD! It's the worst comment ever, just a string of words poorly coordinated that sound vaguely hippy. You asked him for Wisdom did you? A MUSICIAN!?  tit

[guitarlover891]

@bragtheface you obviously never dropped acid

[bragtheface]

@guitarlover891 you're right. I haven't, however, I also haven't sat in a corner dribbling drawing shit doodles on my hand asking them for wisdom like a windowlicker in a playground. A fucking tab of acid isn't going to bring you onto a higher plane of conciousness you mong, read some shit, travel, meet some people and talk and listen.

[Ruzin08]

@bragtheface nice music but what up with his dreads????

ha ha ha ha hah a

[weed4me999]

Beautiful music- beautiful hair.

[Ruzin08]

@weed4me999 ummm its not hair...ITS ONE PIECE OF HAIR!!!

MUAHAHAHAHAHA

[JarnoldEnterprises]

@bragtheface Musicians can be wise. But I agree otherwise.

[rawfood777]

fiyah!

[freedomstartswithyou]

look up the amino acids in beans rice and bread it's the same as meat unless that p90x guy is jacked for no reason hahah great song thanks for the post this is human

oh and watch the documentary A BEAUTIFUL TRUTH and you will see all are digestive tract is designed to eat veg and cancer is beatable im not joking if you no what they call cancer treatment in western "culture" you know its pain not health care FREE HUMANITY UNITE we are just families apart one love to my brothers across the sea $=0

[PaOlaaa96]

@freedomstartswithyou clearly more and more of us, we're seeing the light :)

[wuntoothwee]

What lyrics should be, poetic, beautiful. SCREW YOU MAINSTREAM POP

[hornetbrown]

Sugary jam...tingles the spine.

[Eturnal718]

NOW...FINALLY I know what heaven feels like...Damn what a good track!!!

This is put together so well I feel like I just had a slice of heaven...props to Gonjasufi and the whole Brainfeeder family...I love you all!!!

[ObLiesk]

OH MY FUCKING GOD

[MrArrigan]

trip225 i love you, and i love you sooooooooo much. u know me, but you wont know who left this comment. tricky... xxx

[nickernosher]

@MrArrigan lmao

[TheRuaGolba]

aż się popłakałam...

[KILLAHBEAM]

i was watching a documentary about sheep while i was listening to this.. i have never been so scared in my life

[sl1ghtlystoop1d]

Gotta say, I've never heard of a lion eating a sheep. The climates that wild lions live in isn't exactly suitable for grazing sheep

[supremearcher]

@sl1ghtlystoop1d you're forgetting about mountain lions, dood

[swams0]

@sl1ghtlystoop1d Yeah, I don't understand metaphors either.

[swams0]

@carlosnata Oh, I was just being snarky and sarcastic to that person I replied to.

If we're going to analyse the lyrics you could argue that he's talking about three sides of human nature. The gentle sheep who does no harm to anyone, the lion, whose nature urges him to attack and do harm, and, lastly, the shephard who moderates and marshalls these two animals. He/she can either protect and cultivate the sheep part or let the lion attck and run amok. Gentleness vs aggression: a trade-off.

[DouweHighland]

Genius

[LittleMothaFoka]

Stoners everywheeeeereeee.....

[unstoppablefriday]

relaxes my mind and body. Gonjasufi, you are a god.

[laur44n]

absolutely beautiful!

[Sakina206]

Even there is a original sample I am amazed by this album!

[Kanysh15]

Ye....Yeh Hawa Yeh Fiza" - Sadma (1983)

[niallsc]

amazing, some cool fuckin music

[Pieperson277]

true genius.

[DualPolarity]

ROSKILDE!!!

[architectob1t]

@DualPolarity lucky person...am in Århrus now...really wanted to be there....top act was announced last! Enjoy!!

[theobliviousblob]

I closed me eyes and all i could see were bollywood female extras dancing around me!!!!!  xP

damn neat!!!!

[pozsoz]

i wish i was a sheep

[elopez420]

@the all the haters. music should only be made if you have fun doing it. otherwise, your wasting your time. plus teddyboykill, your name is faggy and no one will comment on your shitty music because no one cares about it or has ever heard of it. this is just another one of gaslamp and sufi's many incredible archive of music.

[teddyboykill]

perhaps one of the worst songs ive heard .. this kind of fusion is so done with ..

a perfect example of vapid melancholia and some archiac indian sounds and voice ..

what a clam combination !!

the voices in the back me want to stop making music .. torture !

[OOboxfileOO]

@teddyboykill your a cunt if listening to something else is the reason you want to stop making music

[misterbizzones]

@teddyboykill what a clam combination, indeed!

[likewaterfortoffee]

@teddyboykill ON THE CONTRARY,

If you check the original sample (see "Yeh Hawa Yeh Fiza"), you'll see that Gonja manages to transform what is essentially a rather feelgood, novelty Bollywood tune into a magnificently melancholy lament, which is about something existential and rare: The predatory instinct that we all carry as human beings, as omnivores. Is our addicition to meat actually what fuels our abuse of the environment? What if we were more like sheep?

[vibronicz]

@likewaterfortoffee how do i find the sample?

[suryavs]

@vibronicz the original is mind blowing just type sadma songs in youtube and and click on Yeh Hawa Yeh Fiza

[teddyboykill]

perhaps one of the worst songs ive heard .. this kind of fusion is so done with ..

a perfect example of vapid melancholia and some archiac indian sounds and voice ..

what a clam combination !!

[SundaySuckZ]

top!

[haelprincessLeah]

this is my joint... u jus dont know... i love this more than love

[sheatheman]

His voice sounds like a little plunger horn in the jungle and duke Ellington's band sucked into a black hole and absorbed into a black amethyst.

[ebbtides]

@sheatheman and that's a good thing!

[MercuryRevolution]

Not bad!

[mexrockstar123]

BABY MAKING MUSIC

[evolume]

too fucking good.

[basakbabies]

bolly influenza.

[sx42007]

Mind blowing remix of Maestro's song "Ye HAva" from the film Sadma.

[HailBG]

Hmm... Quite an interesting reuse of Ilayaraja's "Yeh Hawa" from the album, Sadma.

[greenjelly01]

Good remix...

still like the original better: v=EljeoMWul_Q

so who says Ilaiyaraaja is so 80s??

[kamalaakarsh]

This is a Remix. The original song is "Yeh Hawa Yeh Fizaa" from Hindi film "Sadma", whose music has been composed by one of the highly prolific composers in India - Ilaiyaraaja.

[Contraceptive]

@kamalaakarsh

Legit question: How do you pronounce Ilaiyaraaja? I'm a language nerd, and I have an interest in some sounds in Hindi languages.

[srik0003]

@Contraceptive its pronounced E-lay-yer-raja

Its tamil. Means young king. He's the undisputed king of tamil music all right. :D

[alessiomagenta]

@kamalaakarsh -thanks for the tip!!

[SaneLunacy]

@kamalaakarsh Not to sound rude or ignorant, but are you being honest or are you just bull shitting? LOL

[ruslyakov]

@kamalaakarsh yeah, that is chapter 2

[ruslyakov]

@kamalaakarsh yeah, that is chapter 2

[haigna]

@kamalaakarsh Thx mate ! :)

[madthoughtz]

@kamalaakarsh It's not a remix, they just sampled the song.

[UrbanCrunkMovement]

@kamalaakarsh Nope. It's a new song using samples from the above mentioned artist.

[mrnomore]

@kamalaakarsh "a remix". you even know what a remix is?

[DrLakitu]

@kamalaakarsh Thanks for the info dude :)

[bassimgesicht]

@kamalaakarsh Thank you!

[adamarmitage123]

Quite a few of Gonjasufi's album tracks can be found on Gaslamp Killers 'teasers' albeit they are don't appear to be as complete as they are on the album effort. Good to finally hear it!
