Red Bull Radio has premiered the full recording of 'Unanimous Goldmine', the collaborative performance between actor, screenwriter and renowned harbinger of noise poetry and hip hop futurism Saul Williams; and accomplished Philly-based musician, DJ, author and producer King Britt.

On the explicit invitation of Moor Mother, who was a guest curator at Le Guess Who? 2018, these two great minds gave an exclusive, on-time collaborative performance entitled ‘Unanimous Goldmine’. Forging their collective work, insights, experiences and curiosity, it resulted in a fearless and groundbreaking performance that was completely improvised on stage.

The performance was named after a phrase Williams used in his yet to be published new graphic novel, referring to the greeting the characters in the sci-fi magical-realism story use. You can listen to the full recording via Red Bull Radio for 30 days.

"Across the weekend there were also an exclusive performance by Saul Williams and King Britt (a.k.a. Hyperdub’s Fhloston Paradigm) - the two of which provided an improvised set of muted, electronica and political poetry. The performance, which went under the title 'Unanimous Goldmine', a reference to Williams' upcoming film and book project, was tinged with cutting lines and references to our socio-political times. King Britt, who was also celebrating his fiftieth birthday, was by far on-point with his dynamic, analog, and bass heavy sonic underscoring, showing why he’s still one of today’s most important producers.
