about

Dub wisdom and global fusion that hits like a brick landing on a featherbed; LIONS GATE “PORTAL” is a musical movement and a spiritual evolution. The group consists of 3 NYC based veteran multi-instrumentalist artists that answered a Universal call to create this powerful project during the opening of The Lions Gate Portal in 2021 at Highest Frequency.

Patrick Dougher, Yako 440 and Erik Rabasca applied the full force of their combined talents, taking us on a trip from London to Lagos and from Kingston to Motown. 11 tracks that drop heavy reggae, moody trip-hop, lava hot hi-life / afrobeat, smooth soulful funk and deep jazzy drum ‘n’ bass. All delivering a positive message and warm earthy for deep listeners and expressive dancers.

LIONS GATE sound is rebellious and militant, raw and sophisticated. “PORTAL” is a mix of eclectic influences - imagine Fela Kuti, Funkadelic, Roots Radics and Portishead jamming at a Brooklyn house party.

LIONS GATE “PORTAL” is live instruments with electronic overdubs, expertly mixed by Alan Siegler at his analog studio Cardboard Alchemy in Brooklyn. Mastered by Eliyah Heinrich at Beyond Groove Studios in Zurich, Switzerland, and featuring horns by saxophonist Sean Nowell and trumpeter Dave Levy.
