We up in here in 2021 with the new music explosion that issssssss All Music Is World Music is back with yet another edition. Recorded deep in the night at my desk in Austin, Texas. As the rain falls down, filling our lakes and rivers and we transition into whatever is coming next. Are you ready for it?

Back in 1996 I had a show on Radio Static, a cable radio station in Amsterdam. I don't know who ever listened, I got a call here and there now and again. But I would basically just partake in coffee shop favors and hit the studio at I think 1 am on Saturday nights and play whatever I wanted to. Nothing's changed as they say. On this particular show I could describe it in a manner, similar to the opening lines of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. On this particular day, one of my best friends in the world ever, Flavia Roncelli and I went all over Amsterdam to buy about 30 peppers to have a stuffed pepper party that night. My friend Jasper was coming in from England/Scotland/Germany (he is a man of many mysteries) and so we invited a bunch of people over to my flat and fed them peppers and smoked a lot of weed and hash. We also drank wine, beer and genever, and then I busted out this liquid mescaline that a weirdo gave/sold me in a coffee shop and then we played Twister, and Jasper and I headed out with our fri

Man it really went down on this one. All music really is world music and we don't recognize borders when it comes to art. Covid be damned, we shall jam, and continue to jam. We do what we can to keep the mind free while our feet are locked, in shackles, our ears being told where we can and can't go, our people stuck in places where we thought were free but are not. But we can remain free. We can for sure. We can keep our freedoms and thrive, with music, and art, and culture, and buck the devil. Whole world a lie but the art will survive and thrive.

This is a really important podcast for me as I finally got to sit down with a real OG to me, legendary punk rock musician/promoter/ champion Larry Weaver of the band My 3 Scum, Eerie Records and more. Seeing him put on shows in my hometown showed me that it was possible and truly inspired me to try and help bring the all ages show vibes to Erie, PA in the late 80's. His inspiration brought me literally to the actual starting point of my career. And man it was such a fun time. We sat down to talk about the good ol' days and some other thangs of course. I'm hoping to be in Erie a lot more this year and I am hoping to expand this into a whole series. So many stories in my hometown.

Once again we recognize no boundaries around these parts. The open border steez is my lifestyle choice. Don't cage me in, bro, sis, they, srsly. Let me live. Let the music thrive. It comes from all over the place and I want it all. And I want to share it with you. We go round and round with this one and as always it's a surprise. Love to hear what you think of it. I give my email in a few points in the show and think that you should hit me up and let me know that you are listening. No more social media for me. This is between us. Also comments are disabled because of spammers trying to sell me plays. I would rather have 100 real ones than a million fakes. I know y'all feel me, because you are here, for some reason. Let me know where and how and when you listen and let's chat soon.

We end the most weird year in the most wonderful time with the best music out now hands down and maybe even some looks back but this isn't a best of 2020 show because wtf is the best of 2020? The end is the best. That is all it is and all that it could be. But I have some jams for you, that is for sure. If you ride with me you will feel this one. If not, well, whatever. Listen to something else. 2021 a gwaaaaan.

The #1 Holidaze DJ in the World is back with his 2020 mix of love and yule for the worst year yet. Anyway, in the tradition of All Music Is World Music and his Holidaze Mixes of the past 10+ years, Matt Sonzala takes you all over the world for a Yuletide Celebration. On TV the borders are closed but in your mind everything is open. Go wherever you want, it's the time of the year to rip down all borders and recognize no hatred. Everything is Love and Love is what we need. Peace on earth and good will to all y'all. Jam the mix and please share it with everyone you know. Feel free to repost, share, steal it, whatever. It's yours. HAPPY HOLIDAZE FROM MATT SONZALA AND THE WHOLE CLICK.

We go all over the world on this one with a special Gqom mix of sorts (I am not a great mixer but you will hear some jams). I was compiling a gang of songs recently and then the other night I tuned into Generasian Radio on Twitch and my man Nibu was doing a mix of African music with a healthy dose of Gqom and I was like daaaaaamn man the world is coming to us all hell yes that's how we do fuck all restrictions music has NO BORDERS WHATSOEVER! We recognize none of that on this show. We just travel with the sounds. Thank you to all who made the incredible music for me to play on this here show. And thank you to you for listening. I love you all.

This is certainly not my favorite thing to do, but it had to be done. I lost one of my closest friends in Chris Edwards man. Literally one of my closest. Just a couple months after losing my stepfather in what has been the most surreal year yet. Chris was an incredible human being. The best father and friend you could ever know. He stuck with his people through and through. In fact just two weeks before his passing, we talked about how much we appreciated each other for sticking together so long. No matter where we were in the world, we would be in touch. Chris called and woke me up on the morning of 9/11. We talked about everything. He was also an extremely talented and underrated MC/DJ/Producer from South Austin, Texas. Born and raised. We lived in Brooklyn together in 1994 and had the time of our lives. On this extremely long podcast we dig into his music and get stories from those who were close to him in the music world - DJ Spinner T, DJ Rodney, Andre Walker, Keir Worthy, Don Scavone, Victorious, Mi

I did it a little different this time, I used the Rodecaster Pro and streamed music from my phone. Curious to see how this sounds and also how it flows. Probably a mess as usual but I pray you like the jams. RIP JOHNNY NASH and EDDIE VAN HALEN. What world is this?

Matt Sonzala is back with another edition of All Music is World Music and it's a banger. No rules, no genres, only real music from the souls of real humans. Nothing processed. No filler. No commercials. Just the jams. I would love it if you would repost this one, maybe share the link with a friend or two. That would mean a lot to me. Destroy all borders before they destroy you. Love, matt

The only thing right now. The 20's will ROAR.

It's the new new playlist show from Matt Sonzala. ALL MUSIC IS WORLD MUSIC! DESTROY ALL BORDERS! SMASH THE STATE! NO RULES! NO GOVERNMENT! FUCK THEM ALL. Just jam some music and calm down please. Calm down with me. All Music is World Music. Enjoy the art of it all. No more borders. None. We don't recognize that. We meaning us. You and me. Me and you. And them as well. Unite with me in music, today, tonight, whenever you are ready. Love, Matt Sonzala

H-Town lost another real one. Though he was born in Atlantic City, NJ, Rick Royal came to Houston with his family in high school. He soon became known as one of the greatest MC's to ever emerge from Houston's burgeoning hardcore rap scene. He is known as one of the fore fathers of Gangsta/Reality Rap as his story telling street tales were some of the most vivid and real ever put on wax. He precedes most of your favorite rappers, and like many of Houston's underground legends, could be your favorite rappers favorite rapper. Bun B of UGK/MDDL FNGZ and Big Munn of MDDL FNGZ join me to discuss the history of the man and the scene he helped to create and nurture and develop. I don't have a lot of details about his passing, any information would be greatly appreciated. REST IN PEACE POWER AND HEAVEN RICKY ROYAL FOREVER!

The musical revolution that isssssssssssss Pushermania's Playlist is back with your soundtrack to today. No social media. Just real social living.

I had to do it. I had to put the raw audio from the show on April 14, 2005 when Dizzee Rascal joined us in the KPFT Studios for an Epic Freestyle with DJ Chill, DJ Rapid Ric and DJ Wonder from the UK on the beats and Grit Boys and Golden Child and more joining in on the mic. This is a classic, pass it to the next man please. Woman. Everyone needs to hear and experience this realness. When Houston Rap and London Grime first came together. I think that Bun B and Dizzee recorded together for the first time the day after this show. And they met almost exactly one year earlier. Those were the daze. ENJOY!

it took me a lot of attempts to finish this particular self isolation mix. In reality it should have come out a lot sooner. When we were really panicking. You may still be panicking and so may be I, but I don't feel like I felt like six weeks ago, I feel a general sense of calm on top of total disbelief and panic and worry for the future. But I am trying to live in the present. And as old or as new as it is, jazz is a genre that can help you live in the present and stay grounded and refocus your mind, body and soul. And we all need some of that. We need to sit back and feel it. Ideally in some headphones. In an easy chair. Thinking about nothing. Feeling everything. Wanting nothing and knowing that you have it all even if you have nothing at all. You have the music. It's there for you. it exists. And you will survive right along with it. None of this music will ever die, and I hope you won't either. For a long, long, long,long, long, long time. We have so much more to do. The greats want and need our presence

In hour Three of tonight's Damage Control Program we start off with Skyla Dawn reading our weekly prison shout outs and then we go into a classic Damage Control program that first aired LIVE on April 14, 2005. Dizzee Rascal visit's the studio from London with his mans Scope and DJ Wonder and they go hard on the mic alongside Houston's Grit Boys and a young Zeakey Bobby, formerly known as Golden Chyld. It's a crazy classic Damage Control program and I will maybe post the whole Dizzee Show soon. That woman's voice you hear as co-host is SuthernGurl. Zin was there. It was an event for real. Enjoy and leave a comment, and be sure to share. THANKS!
