With so many musicians focusing on the presidential campaign, Jeff Antebi, owner of the Los Angeles-based Waxploitation label and management firm, was afraid it would be hard to get the attention of artists for a project to raise funds to address current suffering in Sudan. But when it came down to it, the response to requests for musical contributions to a charity album, "Genocide in Sudan," was so strong that the real problem came in deciding when to cut them off. "I was dealing at one point with 100 artists and choices, and I had to let it go," Antebi says. "There was a tantalizing thing where if I waited another week I could get some other great artist, or three weeks and get another one, but I had to close it now or else it could go on forever." Musicians on the CD include: System of a Down, Gorillaz, Jill Scott, Jurassic 5, Thievery Corporation, Kinky, X-ecutioners, Bad Religion, Tortoise, Yoko Ono, Danger Mouse & Murs, Tweaker, The Pretenders, Mark Farina, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, DJ Spooky featuring Lee ‘Scratch' Perry, Toots and The Maytals featuring Bunny Wailer, Teargas & Plateglass, The Nightwatchmen and Rise Against amongst others.
