Alex Gimeno, aka Ursula 1000 has just finished up his latest album Mystics, due to be released in February 2009. Ursula 1000 returns from journeys into outer space with his fourth studio album, an epic collection of psychedelic sonic sorcery entitled Mystics!  Zig-Zagging further away from the cheeky vintage breakbeat-rhumba of previous albums, this time the Brooklyn beat-wizard ventures into tougher and more angular territory:  beats banging harder and bass popping louder.  Drawing from a variety of new influences and collaborations, Ursula 1000 delivers lethal doses of dirty booty-breaks with tracks like “Rump” featuring MC Tee Double, gothic sexcapades with “I.C.O.M.E.” featuring sex-kitten vocalist Rochelle Vincente Von K, electro-dancehall with “Step Back” featuring Jamaican toaster Sista Widey, and disco-funk filth with “Star Machine” featuring jazz-breaks producer Mocean Worker.  At once playful and dangerous, Mystics is a cry to the stars! 

Ursula 1000 just stopped by TiVo to be interviewed while he was in San Francisco. To check out the YouTube video of the interview, click here.
