ENGLISH
 
This new explosive constellation formed by David Miret, mexican born multi-instrumentalist and streetmusician together with longtime UrbanWorld Records producer Al Lindrum is set to cause a stir. SuperPendejos presents their debut release on UWR, a three track Ep showcasing some of their trademarks. Lots of Tropical sounds with accordion, melodica and hornsections mixed up with organic fat beats and big basslines. 
 

The title track Ya Sta Qi takes digital cumbia into new territories adding a deephouse feeling to the phychedelic sounds of cumbia. La Princesa De La Cumbia is a deep slow building cumbiabass track that just grooves on and on for dancefloor pleasure. The SP Airlines track shows a bit more of the multi-influenced SuperPendejos Universe with its deep hypnotic groove and its turkish/armenian touch with the duduk flute to create that shamanistic feel of pure energy, love and happiness that Superpendejos is all about. 
 

For remixing these tracks we wanted something special, so we tired to find remixers who could take them into new dimensions. The remixers were all chosen by SP themselves because of their amazing production skills. 
 
Fort Knox Five handed in a fantastic funky breakbeat edit of "La Princesa De La Cumbia" that shows why they are one of the foremost producers in their field. Professor Angel Sound abuses "La Princess De La Cumbia" into a mad moombahtonistic remix straight outta the panamerican jungle. Dixone took on the "SP Airlines" and totally ripped it apart creating a new style . at UrbanWorld we now call it "BerlinCumbia" 
 

All tracks originals and remixes should be sure to rip up dancefloors around as well as create a unique feeling when listening at home. 
 

SPANISH
 
Esta nueva constelación explosiva formada por David Miret, multiinstrumentista y músico de calle mexicano-barcelonés, y Al Lindrum, productor y viejo conocido de UrbanWorld Records, va a ser un bombazo! SuperPendejos presenta su debut en UWR, un Ep de tres temas en el que dejan ver su caracteristico estilo. Muchos sonidos tropicales con acordeón, melódica, y secciones de vientos, junto con potentes beats orgánicos y bajos enormes.
 

La canción que da titulo al Ep "Ya Sta Qi" lleva la cumbia digital hacia nuevos territorios, añadiendo un feeling de deephouse al sonido psicodélico de la cumbia. "La Princesa De La Cumbia" es un tema cumbiabass que se construye lentamente para crear un groove que hará las delicias del público en las pistas de baile. El tema "SP Airlines" enseña un poco más del universo SuperPendejos, un groove hipnótico y deep, además del toque turco/armenio de la flauta duduk, para crear una sensación chamánica de energia en estado puro, amor, y felicidad, que representa el verdadero sello de SuperPendejos.
 

Para los remixes de estos temas queriamos algo especial, de modo que intentamos encontrar remixers que los pudieran llevar a otras dimensiones. Los remixers fueron escogidos por los propios SP, basándose en la calidad de sus producciones. Fort Knox Five aparece con un fantástico edit funky breakbeat de "La Princesa De La Cumbia" que demuestra por que son uno de los nombres principales en su escena. Professor Angel Sound abusa de "La Princesa De La Cumbia" creando un moombathon remix de locura total, directamente desde las profundidades de la jungla panameña. Por último, Dixone despedaza el tema "SP Airlines" dándole la vuelta por completo y en el camino creando un nuevo estilo ... en el cuartel general de UrbanWorld ahora lo llamamos "BerlinCumbia"

Our Home on Native Land

in the spring of 2011 i was fortunate to meet patrick gordon , and dene first nations road man. a peyote singer . he came to my studio to record an album. during the flow we became friends and i felt  gained his musical trust. at a point i asked if i could do a beat and bass fusion of one of the medicine songs and i was given permission. This song has so much power , i don't often include it in sets, but every once in a while its appropriate. i want to share this with you, its a work in progress, i spent a day working on it before sinixt barter fair 2011.  but in support of idle no more and the first nations wisdom. we need healing for our earth mother and i believe music is a big part of that ...

medicine song  4  (fusion with patrick gordon)

a few years ago , i was fortunate to meet nickodemus, a producer/ dj f new york. i'd been a big fan of his ever since i heard a remix of ustad sultan khan that he had done for a cd called essential elements. then cleopatra in new york, another classic tune of his.  from there to meet , i expressed interest in wanting to work with him on something.  he had just finished sun people album and proposed sending me stems for a song from that album, i then worked with nervous fervor to try and make a great remix for him, but i have to say , i choked a bit. too much pressure on myself and what i gave him i was pleased with but not super happy.  he graciously accepted the mix and release on his remix album.   ok fine, but i still was not happy with it.  a year later after working on a national geographic project for a year i was primed and in shape ( creatively)  and i decided to tackle it again. it was two months to my first us show at symbiosis and i knew nico would be there too, what you are hearing in this trk is the second exploration of this amazing trk.  the idea of bringing good vibrations of peace to the middle east is the direction my intentions went while building this mix. a reflection of the beauty and sadness of the cultures in that part of the world....enjoy!!!
