Fever To The Form

Sunny greetings from Greece! I asked my friend Testa to post this for me since I can't access the internet regularly while i'm away: Here's the beautiful DJ Testa (https://soundcloud.com/chrisfader-testa) Remix of my Lamb/K&D cover of Trans Fatty Acid (https://soundcloud.com/the-unused-word/trans-fatty-acid-cover)

Testa sent me a first version a few weeks ago, and since then I've been looking forward to this moment with great joy and happy impatience because it is massive! Peace and love from Greece - enjoy:)

Populous is Andrea Mangia, a producer hailing from Lecce, a small city on the heel of Italy's boot. In 2003, he made his first jaunt into the music world with the album Quipo (via Morr Music). In 2005 he released Queue For Love, influenced by his reggae/hip-hop-infused surroundings (Lecce is known as Italy's Jamaica, as reggae and dancehall are extremely popular there) and in 2008 he released Drawn in Basic. Both albums were widely received by international critics, earning him a spot on the global music map. He became known for the way he seamlessly blends digital sounds with the analog warmth of soul/hip-hop/whatever else he's influenced by at the time.

Azulejos, his forthcoming release, has a South American tinge to it (and is even partly in Spanish). He moved to Lisbon, Portugal to start work on the album bringing with him only a laptop, a small MIDI keyboard, and a microphone. "Lisbon became both my studio and my muse," he says. He wandered the city collecting field recordings— from trams to people singing on street corners. He sifted through flea markets for records to use for sampling (exclusively Portuguese and South American). Populous describes Lisbon as a city 'halfway between South American soul and European modernity, African in some aspects, and dramatically melancholic." He channeled these poignant fusions into Azulejos, named for the typical tiled facades in Portugal— simultaneously bright and decaying. The album features collaborations with Nina Miranda of Smoke City and Ela Minus, among others. It's a love letter to Lisbon, and a dreamy quilt of sounds he both grew up with and heard for the first time during his influential stay in Portugal.

After two outstanding releases on Wonderwheel Recordings (2018’s “5 Star Motel” LP, and 2019’s “Saint Claude Dash / Chicha Nola” 7”), Gitkin is back with a new EP, along with two remixes from Pimps Of Joytime. “De La” - which features NYC-based singer Carol C - was inspired by the Saharan Tuareg sound, while also embracing Carl C’s Afro-Dominican roots with a beautiful melody and Spanish lyrics. 

The second track, “Canción De Aplauso,” fuses classic joyful cumbia with 70s Afrobeat, Cuban tumbao, and a bit of middle eastern flavour for good measure. The electric Guild twelve-string guitar sound is reminiscent of Turkish Saz, eliciting a festive vibe that gets the crowd grooving in live sets. 

Both songs see remixes by the Pimps of Joytime, with “De La” delving further into the trance sound. “Canción De Aplauso” gets a gogo retouch, inspired by Washington DC’s Chuck Brown, with the addition of some 70’s style funk slap bass. 

“De La Canción” EP will be released on Wonderwheel Recordings March 13th.

We are proud to premiere the first track part of the forthcoming release on Frente Bolivarista:

Quixosis - Especies Afines [FRE014]

In Especies Afines, Quixosis explores tempo duplicities, combining disparate species of rhythms into synchopated, polyrhytmic doublecounts, that are both slow and fast, that anchor down thick and fluctuating ambiences layered in tape feedback and games of time. With rhtyhmic elements of footwork, dub, ambient, breakbeats and DnB, Especies Afines are an uplifiting and energetic series of tracks, full of detail and bass heavy rhythms, and deeply enveloping ambient cushions that give off an energy that is both hot and calm like an bonfire, transparent and liquid, like a quicksilver prisma.
