The good old days before the Ghostown started in a Scottish ghost town back in 97 as Rael / Dr Raelskinnt, a one man trip hop band and vocalist. Relocating to Montpellier, France in 2002 the name Ghostown was chosen in hommage to the Specials Culture Vulture was a home studio album between 2002 and 2004 After playing locally Rael started playing with Dj Kirsa then later on Baptizer (Guitar) the trio performed extensively around France up until 2009 Reflectionz was the fruit of this work with guitars and turntablism featuring heavily. 5 years later Spektah Gadjo (2013) was released, going in a more Tsigane inspired direction. Another 5 year gap and now Shanksville is here, the third official album and continuing the themes of Spektah but also going back to a darker note more akin to Reflections. Ghostown is a mixture of Trip Hop, late 90's Hip Hop, Dub + Electro, UK urban sounds with a Balkan and reggae influence and a touch of Tom Waits plus a splash of Brian Eno
