<p>In our <em><strong>Player Xchange</strong></em> series we link up artists from across our <a href="http://www.okayplayer.com" target="_blank"><strong>Okayplayer</strong></a> channels with emerging <a href="http://www.okayafrica.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Okayafrican</strong></a> diaspora acts to create an original song recorded at <strong><a href="http://www.converse.com/rubbertracks" target="_blank">Converse Rubber Tracks</a></strong>. In this second installment, we paired Kenyan futuristic-pop group <a href="http://www.okayafrica.com/2011/10/31/africa-in-your-earbuds-5-just-a-band/" target="_blank"><strong>Just A Band</strong></a> — the gang behind Kenya's <a href="http://www.okayafrica.com/2010/07/15/viral-makmende-signals-shift-in-african-music-as-twitter-generation-takes-lead/" target="_blank">first viral hit</a> — with ATL's shape-shifting rapper <a href="http://www.okayplayer.com/news/audio-premiere-go-dreamer-animals-vs-machines-mixtape.html" target="_blank"><strong>Go Dreamer</strong></a>. The two came out of the studio with "Digitize Me (Conventional Oven)," a fuzzy, beatboxed gem that blends Dreamer and JAB's unconventional quirks.
