The new Kucha iPad Messenger Bag was specifically tailored to hold an Apple iPad pre-mounted in the Alesis I/O Dock. The bag has a dedicated microphone compartment using Velcro dividers for additional flexibility, with plenty of room for cables and accessories. There is even a pouch that is the perfect size for the Korg Nano keyboard controller.

There is also a protective iPad pouch for transport of an Apple iPad without the AlesisI/O Dock. When used this way there is plenty of room in the compartment to hold an iPad mic stand adapter. The bag has an extra long strap so that it can be worn across the chest. Of course it also works great for a small laptop and your iPad combo!

Now in stock and available.

Review: Namba Juju “Magic” DJ Controller Bag

by Phil Morse

Some of today’s DJ controllers aren’t exactly small, and getting them to and from your gigs safely can present a bit of a challenge. We’ve already looked at the Lil Namba Remix DJ backpack, which is great if you have one of the smaller controllers, but what if you have something that won’t fit in a backpack?

Your choice has traditionally been to use a hard wooden / metal flight case, but the trouble is that a flight case can weigh many times more than your controller itself, which in a way defeats the object. That’s where the Namba Juju “Magic” DJ controller bag comes in.  (read more)

Perhap you have a piece of equipment that is a little too big for our Studio and Remix Backpacks. You don’t need a hard case, but hate to carry your gear around in the original box. The Juju Magic Bag is just the ticket. This is just an amazing bag and it can also be converted to a backpack (just part of the magic). Check out the Juju Magic Bag.

Namba Gear: Samba Personal Stash Bag

John Scalici is an award winning teaching artist, internationally recognized drum circle facilitator, musician, and speaker. His powerful message of Unity Through Rhythm has been featured on campuses across the country. He is a drummer who has played in two national touring bands, written two albums worth of catchy, high energy blues rock songs, and shared the stage with the Allman Brothers, Santana, Widespread Panic, Govt’ Mule, Buddy Guy, among others.

As a solo artist and teaching artist, he has released two highly acclaimed CDs: RhythmMusic and Rhythms for Drumming and Movement.

We understand you’ve got several projects in the works. Tell us about them.

Well, my latest project is band related and really one of my INteractive programs, so here goes.

My music project is called Juka Tribe. The music is part acoustic, part electronic. We use a mixture of computer samples/textures, plus acoustic percussion, electronic percussion pads, live bass, and live spoken word. The music is funky and danceable with tribal beats and ambient textures. The album, called Juka Tribe, will be out in September 2011, and will be available digitally on iTunes and a host of other internet music sites as well as in CD form. For a taste of some live Juka Tribe, you can visit us @ http://www.facebook.com/JukaTribe or www.jukatribe.com.

As far as my INteractive programs, I facilitate rhythm-based programs all over the southeastern U.S.
I facilitated about 100 elementary, middle, and high school programs last year alone! In addition, I facilitate dozens of corporate/business groups throughout the year.

The message is always the same: Unity Through Rhythm. Leading people to lead themselves and become better communicators is something I feel very passionate about whether it’s a group of kids or an office full of corporate executives. In short, my daily life is about bringing drums and percussion instruments to people and helping them to Realize their Rhythm!

What do you like best about your Namba bag?

First, this is the BEST personal bag I’ve ever owned. I like the simplicity and functionality of the Samba Personal Stash Bag. There are just enough little compartments to store your stuff, but not so many that you forget where you put your stuff! It’s compact and stylish. The lighter colored interior makes it super easy to locate objects. One of the coolest things is the logo on the bag!! Goes perfect with my new project, Juka Tribe!!! Thanks for making such an awesome piece of equipment, ya’ll.

Do you have a favorite remote recording location?

Since I’m a drummer/percussionist/composer, I love to record drums in lots of places and create custom loops. One of my most favorite places to record drums is old, empty buildings with tall ceilings. In Birmingham, where I live, we have lots of places like this as well as like Sloss Furnace, a huge old furnace that was a cornerstone of Birmingham’s early success as a steel and metal town. My next project will be to record rhythms on all of the old pipes, furnaces, and pillars that are there. I’ll be keeping all my recording gear nice and safe in my other Namba bags!!

My last comment? Live everyday with passion and conviction, like it was your last. And…life’s too short to stay in bad hotels. Find a nice place to lay your head!
