Gato Preto is a new Tribal fuelled band from Germany, made of Lee Bass & Gata Misteriosa. I love their project, it is very fresh and these 2 remixes packs prouve it: expect various stuff, from moombahton, to kuduro, to house… This is tribal baby!
You can get all of them for free.
You can also have a look to their amazing video of Tschuduku & the remix i’ve done of the original track.
Xenoglossia(from Greek xenos/ foreigner and glōssa/tongue or language) is the name of this paranormal phenomenon in which a person is able to speak or write a language he or she supposedly could not have acquired by natural means.
Imagine a person who speaks German fluently, but who’s not German, has never studied german, never been to a german-speaking country, and never associated with german speakers or had any other source of exposure to the german language, would be said to exhibit xenoglossy. Weird.
This is actually the impression i got when i’ve finished this tune. I’ve done it in one go, and never expect to do such a hybrid tune. Is it techno ? is it global bass ?
I don’t know and i think i don’t care actually. But for sure it is tribal… and personnal.
I also had the surprising opportunity to work on a video for this tune. The Génard Brothers (as i used to call them – Romain & P-a) are 2 guys from my own city. I met P-a a year ago cos he helped me working on some visuals while i was working on the promotion of RAW. He came back a couple of month later with his brother and they offered me to shoot a video for one of the tune of my choice.
Of course, i couldn’t say no :)
And the result is a very solid & sexy video, really strong quality for a first try (it was their first video ever!!).
I’d like to thank Camille Sellès (camera-woman), Fred Sigaud (light), le Transbordeur (for letting us use their place) and of course, the actress, Kayije. Isn’t she sublime ?
So of course, download the tune, watch the video & please share it with your friends!
Usually i don’t make advertising for companies, but i found this webstore had an interesting concept…
Loopmasters, one of the best plateform to buy samples, has just launched The Pluginboutique, a webstore where you could buy music plugins – imagine: one website where you could buy everything at the same place!
I found the idea interesting.
And to celebrate this new service, they offer all first time purchasers at pluginboutique.com a Free Sample CD of their choice from Loopmasters through the post. Plus until the end of May every additional £100 you spend entitles you to another free Sample CD (to claim your free samples simply leave a comment on the Pluginboutique facebook page with your order number and the type of music you produce – your mystery sample CD/s will arrive in the post!)
HELL YEAH! I am SO excited this remix to be out!! Today i’m proud to tell you my remix of Joelito « Sick Head » is out on HUUUUUUGE label MAD DECENT!
For those who don’t know, Mad Decentis Diplo’s label, one of the most exciting labels at the moment.
Sick Head is Joelito‘s original tune. Joelito is a talented producer from Sweden, specialist of Tropical Bass (when the weather is bad like in Sweden i think you need the music to be HOT!). His tune « Sick Head » is a maaad tune with loads of cumbia elements in it. I had the honnor to make a remix of it and i’ve done something REALLY savage :)
I did something a little bit different… i got inspired by a new movement from Mexico called 3ball, which is getting really famous through bands like 3ball MTY. And in the more underground scene through guys like Munchi.
And you’re lucky, cos the release is free in 192ko before a proper release on Beatport.
Have a listen, download and please spread the word!
This week selection is very ecclectic. First, we’re starting with a very surprising mixtape from Douster & Blanco for nu french label BeBup. Then some traditionnal arab music, a fantastic tune from maestro Lucid, a wicked mixtape from TLGB and some crazy stuff from KON, R1 Ryder, Parker, dj Tameil & Max le Daron.
