Musician/singer/disc jockey/yoga instructor Sumach Ecks, better known by his latest musical moniker Gonjasufi has been turning heads in all the right places since appearing on Flying Lotus' 2008 album 'Los Angeles' and more recently with his with his latest long player, A Sufi and a Killer.

Ecks has been kicking around since the early 90s, lending his mad skills and trademark croaked-out vocals to several hip-hop releases (most notably to 777 Beats' San Diegan crew Masters of the Universe). 'A Sufi and a Killer' features a motley mix of blazing production from the likes of Gaslamp Killer, Mainframe, and Flying Lotus who all enhance the already chilled out quality of the Gonja's vibe in their own special way. You can have a listen to the new single "Sheep" right here, and download "Ancestors" for safe keeping.
