Though he often affixes the group moniker "Afrikan Space Program" to his name, Ras_G is the sole captain and crew of this spacecraft. Los Angeles favourite "EL Ay-Lien," Capt of the Afrikan Space Program and Power Forward of Flying Lotus' mighty Brainfeeder crew, he has spent countless hours cooking in his beat-kitchen/information space station known as Spacebase 2031. This has led to spins around the globe from heavyweights such as Mary Anne Hobbs, Benji B and Giles Peterson.
His live sets of Heavy 808 psychedelic beat-gumbo, punctuated by his trademark air horns, wonky bass and "Oh Ras!" shout-outs have left crowds wanting more! Stunning, stellar, the man is operating on another level. Armed with a SP 404 and some fat blunts Ras _G aims to take you THERE!
