Mexican singer/percussionist/producer/DJ sensation Pahua comes to Razor-N-Tape via a huge 12” + 7” remix project featuring some of the hottest producer names in current outer-national dance music.  

Originally the singer of beloved Mexican band Sotomayor, Pahua blazed her own solo path in 2020, developing her unique electronic Latin sound through a series of EPs, culminating in the release of her standout Habita LP on Nacional Records in 2023. Garnering millions of streams, Habita established Pahua as an essential voice of modern alternative folk/pop in Latin America, and now Razor-N-Tape brings her sound to the dance floors of the world with a varied remix package that honors the essence of the original music, while flipping it in quintessential RNT club-ready fashion.

The list of remixers on this project includes both staples and new recruits to the RNT production stable. Label co-head JKriv turns in a late-nite bass mix of the exceedingly popular ‘Porque Yo,’ Tigerbalm brings her chugging international disco flair to ‘Pa’lante,’ Prince of Queens digs deep with a housey dub of ‘Calla,’ and Londoner Clive From Accounts takes ‘Caña Brava’ into moody nu-disco meets amapiano territory. The label newcomers also deliver in a huge way, with LA-based Captain Planet and Quebecois producer Poirier each revealing very different but equally banging sides of the uptempo ‘Espantapájaros,’ respectively percussive and thumping, and stripped down and hypnotic. Detroit Latin production legend John Beltran adorns the melancholic ‘Flor de Jazmin’ with a samba-inflected rhythmic foundation and a lush horn arrangement that transports you straight to Cafe del Mar, Ibiza. And Mexican producer Belmar rounds out the package with a slow rolling and deep mix of ‘Porque Yo.’

With a collection of remixes as prolific and solid as these, RNT opted for an expansive 12” + 7” package that features seven of the remixes across the two slabs of vinyl. The gorgeous cover artwork flips the moonrise eclipse motif of the original Habit album cover perfectly, with a slick device that reveals a crescent moon as the record is removed from the jacket.

Mating Ritual Recordings chief @martinhayes returns to RNT and once again shows his knack for simple yet effective selections and slices. Leaning a bit more toward up-tempo material than his previous RNT EP, “Turn You On” does indeed burn relentlessly hot, while “Love Shine” cruises along, alternating between an infectious electric piano vamp and driving percussion. “Easy Come Easy Go” strikes an optimistic and orchestral tone, sending us blissfully into space, and then “Tiff” rounds out the EP with it’s slow and soulful lilt.
