Prince Rama

The first time I saw Prince Rama perform, it was in the basement of a venue called the Silent Barn in Ridgewood, Queens. The walls of the room were painted a very intense light blue. I was in the back and there was no stage, so I couldn’t see them play, but it didn’t matter because I closed my eyes and stopped thinking. Their music is so layered, voluminous and thick that all I focused on was the deepness of the blue in the walls. And dancing. It’s also very danceable. Since then, they signed to Paw Tracks and released an LP in September called Shadow Temple.
