notes
afroQben is a producer/musician from Portland, Oregon.
With the use of a sequencer and the ability to play the guitar, keyboards, bass, drums, percussion, turntables, sing and rap, he is able to put an album together such as "Hi-Fi Fro Funk". Influenced by 70's funk, reggae/dub, hip-hop/trip-hop, rock and jazz, he has created a sound that is very listenable, danceble and unforgetable.
On the song "We Got To Get TOgether Now", 6 grade kids from Portland's Harriet Tubman Middle School sing on the chorus. With its soulful-inspiring lyrics, this song is a sure pleaser!
afroQben's next production is on its way, creating a double full length album of organic, less sequenced music. Working hard on getting the album complete, his fans should be patient for the debut, cause its going to be a masterpiece! Also check out his live band "Luminous Fog".(luminousfog.com). which he plays the bass and guitar. With the collaboration of this group, the self titled, "Luminous Fog" album should be in stores May 2005.

Holy inspiration Batman!!!!
author: Green Fire SnakeI LOVE this album! afroQben is amazing. When I first got this album, I listened to it non-stop while I painted. It was the driving inspiration for many beautiful works of art. Now it's a permanent fixture in my rotation, and I can't wait for his new music to help keep me flowing.

author: Jenny JecmenHaving grown up with Soul/Funk in Memphis Tennessee and with a lot of Motown artists....Ben's music moves one's musical soul to get up and shake that booty honey...plus he has that great Afro hair "feeding" into the whole genre of the thing! Get down people.
