Georgia-based underground icon Cartier'God plays only original productions in this guest hour, floating somewhere between house rap, cloud rap, and experimental pop.
Tana Yonas collects songs like souvenirs, each recalling precious moments found leafing through dusty foreign record shops or catching sonic fragments weathered by time from the radio of bumpy taxi rides. Listen as she delicately guilds together these memories and shares music from lesser known and under represented musical traditions from across the globe and decades.

Icebreaker International is an electronic musical duo featuring Alexander Perls from New York and Londoner Simon Break.
They first released material under the name Icebreaker, including the 1999 album Distant Early Warning on Aesthetics Records. The album of minimal electronic soundscapes was conceptually based in Cold War-era North America and made reference to the Distant Early Warning Line of radar and listening stations established by the USA and Canada in the 1950s to warn of approaching Soviet bombers.
In 2000 the duo signed to Andrew Lloyd Webber's It Records and extended their name to Icebreaker International.
Their second album, Trein Maersk: A Report to the NATOarts Board of Directors, was presented as a geopolitical "audio report" and was supposedly commissioned to promote international free trade, although the spoken samples and liner notes subtly undermine the conceit. Released in 2000, the album is markedly more up-tempo than its predecessor and features more prominent guitar work and synth-driven beats.
In 2003 Perls and Break collaborated with Danish producer Manual (Jonas Munk Jensen) as Icebreaker International & Manual and released the album Into Forever, an album fusing the ambient electronica of their first album with the guitar melodies of the second.
