The duo Juba Dance is multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Ben Lamar and producer Polphonic the Verbose. They draw from a vast range of repertoires ranging from hip hop, jazz, blues, Latin, and electronic to create an incredibly unique amalgam of sound. Their first album, Orange (Audio 8, 2007) received overwhelmingly glowing reviews from critics and fans alike. Orange caught the attention of the Red Bull Academy (Toronto, 07) and Ben Lamar was invited to participate in workshops and performances.
Their follow-up, Orange Juiced, is a compilation of remixes by producers near and far including Sicker Man from Berlin's Blank records, Audio 8's own Flesh O.N.E., Austria's Toma Ivanov, Tony Trimm of Yoome, Turbo Rexxxa from Helsinki, and two remixes by Polyphonic. It also features six previously unreleased Juba tracks produced by Ben Lamar and Polyphonic. Currently, Juba Dance is taking their sounds in a new direction with Apple. Audio 8 is anticipating a spring 09 album release along with music videos to support.
