Zum Podcast Episode 14 - Mark Gergis
-----------
How does one go from hanging out in the weirdo Oakland rock scene of the early '90s to arranging/producing collaborations between Omar Souleyman and Bjork? That's just part of the story of Mark Gergis, who works with Sublime Frequencies and recently started his own Sham Palace label. Sham Palace just released a collection of New Wave Dabke. If you don't know what that is, don't worry-all the more reason to listen. We also talk about his bands Mono Pause, Neung Phak, White Ring, the solo project Porest, and much more. Topics include the Heavenly Ten Stems, growing up Iraqi-American in the suburbs, and searching out music around the globe.
