Sahy Uhns featured in Société Perrier‘s My 5 Favorite Things column
Underground SoCal producer Carl Madison Burgin (a.k.a. Sahy Uhns, which, by the way, is pronounced science) draws from hip-hop and electronic to formulate his heady, always challenging soundscape. On October 18th Burgin will unveil his debut album, An Intolerant Disdain Of Underlings, on Proximal Records, both as an online digital LP and as a 5″x5″ hardcover photo book with the CD tray in the back cover. We caught up with this L.A. native and asked him to wax poetic about his five sources for sampling in L.A. Be sure to watch Burgin in the video below, bringing his live boom-bap live and direct.
1. The Metrolink station in Van Nuys. I was there waiting for a friend to get in from Santa Barbara and recorded the sounds of the trains pulling in and passing. I didn’t have my field recorder yet so I recorded it on an old broken cassette recorder. Those recordings were sampled for the beginning of “Randsburg.”
