Caural is Zachary Mastoon, a multi-instrumentalist and producer originally from
Chicago. Musically "born" in the basement at age 6 with his best friend and
neighbor Stuart Bogie (currently a saxophonist for the Antibalas Afrobeat
Orchestra), he's written and performed music throughout his life in both
Transmission (now based in San Francisco), and the group who became the backing
band for fellow Chocolate Industries' emcee Diverse.
After studying jazz guitar and improvisation with Anthony Braxton at Wesleyan
University, Indonesian Gamelan and Southeast Asian music aboard the Semester At
Sea program and experimental electronic music at NYU, Caural briefly returned to
Chicago in 2000. His debut CD, "Initial Experiments In 3-D" was released on NY's
boutique label Toshoklabs (now available on iTunes), and was followed by two EPs
and a critically-acclaimed full-length for Chocolate Industries, "Stars On My
Ceiling."
Now back in NY, Caural has finished remixes for artists on Plug Research, Sound
In Color, Buttermilk, Delic (Japan), Consumers Research & Development, Level
Plane, Audraglint, Subtractive, Organik Rekordings, Lens Records and Chocolate
Industries. He has been lucky to DJ or perform live with such contemporaries as
James Lavelle, Prefuse 73, King Britt, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Dntel,
Edition Terranova, Daedelus & John Tejada. Recently, Caural teamed up with Los
Angeles-based emcee Busdriver to develop a live set and, after a successful
initial tour opening for Aceyalone and RJD2, has been happy to continue
accompanying his exciting live performances.
Caural just recently finished his new full-length for Mush Records entitled
Mirrors for Eyes, which will be released 10.9.2006. Keep an eye out for the
release of his side project, Boy King Islands, in 2007!
