-en castellano más abajo-

This song evokes the flavor and the heat of the streets of Medellín - Colombia. This “salsa steppa” - As the genre of the song calls Ruido Selecto - is the union between the neighborhood salsa brava and the more electronic and danceable side of dub: the steppa.

Juan Esteban Herrera, project leader and producer of the single, comments on the concept behind this release:

“El Barrio recalls the classic spirit of the Medellín salsa of the 70s and 80s, corner salsa and steep streets, verbena and colors. In this song, the trumpet, the beats and a simple chorus generate a delicious and well applied formula that easily captures the listener and the dancer. "

To achieve a clear salsa sound, the single has the collaboration of the talented Yoni Pérez on the trumpet, who is known for his collaborations with multiple groups in the city of Medellín.

At this moment, Global Bass music is an intimate circuit in the electronic music landscape. Airplane tickets and the internet serve to connect producers and artists in every imaginable combination. Spanning across Africa, Europe, India, the Caribbean, and the Americas, allowing for the birth of new forms of collaboration.  At the nexus of the Tropical music monsoon is producer Thor Partridge, aka Thornato.

Born in Sweden, Thor grew up in a household filled with traditional Greek, African, and Carribbean music.  Moving in early childhood to Queens, New York, the borough’s diversity further influenced his style and taste. Thor added to his rich musical palette by studying classical piano, jazz guitar, and bluegrass banjo. A passion for electronic music production, remixing, and music of the entire globe soon developed.  

Thor’s debut EP “Things Will Change” is an amalgamation of his global influence, coupled with strong roots in dance music culture. His music is not a product of samples downloaded from the internet, but from his driving wanderlust and ability to hand select musicians to work with on location in the countries where they are from.  By recording in the field with a mobile studio, Thor captures the real essence and soul of the music and where it's coming from. The EP kicks off with “Chapinero”, a bass heavy joint with an infectious Colombian Gaita melody.  Handclaps and chopped vocal samples make for a booming floor rocker.  “Deux a Duex” turns towards the African dancefloor incorporating infectious guitars and beautiful vocal harmonies courtesy of Kongo Electro from Cape Town. “Koz Kazah” heads to the Middle East with it’s violin melodies, thick sub-bass, and Arabic vocals courtesy of Karen Be. Finally, “Tera Dewana” lands us in the Indian subcontinent with it’s driving beat, tablas, and Hindi vocals from Vasanth S & AKS. 

Thornato's "Things Will Change" EP shows that while indeed the music does change, the soul and the heart of sounds from all over the world remain consistent, and that dancefloor music is universal - no matter where in the world you are!

Prince of Morocco sounds from the big city: AkizzBeatzz. The night spirit master is reflecting the power of Gnawa, a cultural and social distinctiveness rooted in West Africa, flourished in Morocco by way of migration, both voluntary and forced.  From Senegal to Chad, from Mali in the North to Nigeria in the South Gnawa population originated from black West Africa. The enslaved people from the old Ghana kingdom (north of Mali), the great market of Djenne, the mystic order which marks exclusiveness, the ancestral memory , the artistic and spiritual parallels with the Bori in Nigeria, the Stambouli in Tunisia, the Sambani in Libya, the Bilali in Algeria, the Vodou in Caribbean….Across the path of the night, there is no doubt that AkizzBeatzz retain the spiritual authority and the source of inspiration that suggests the possibility of redemption for all sufferers.

Single 1 from the The Maharaj Project: 001 (LP084)

@nickodemusnyc with the Maharaj Trio: http://loop.co.nz/releases/path-of-the-liger

At the idyllic Splore Festival in New Zealand last February, a collaboration between two performing international artists was born. A plan was hatched by Mikee Tucker of Loop to bring the world beats of New York-based DJ & producer Nickodemus together with the Jugalbandi vibes of the Maharaj Trio from Varanasi, India. The result is The Maharaj Project: 001 – a blend of traditional melodic improvisation from India and the organic electronic beats of Nickodemus.

Each song was recorded live in one-take in Auckland with legendary engineer and former bass player for Cat Stevens, Bruce Lynch, over two sessions.

Vikash Maharaj and his sons Prabhash and Abhishek make up the Maharaj Trio – a North Indian musical family from Varanasi, whose musical tradition stretches back 500 years. With Vikash playing sarod, Prabhash on tablas and Abjishek on sitar, the trio play a unique style of improvised Indian classical music with elements of traditional jugalbandi. Well known as a producer and DJ, Nickodemus has been travelling the world since the mid-90’s.

Tracks one through four feature the Maharaj Trio showcasing their traditional sound which has seen them tour the world. Tracks five and six feature the Trio collaborating with Nickodemus, who brings his dance-floor perspective to the trio’s ancient ragas.

The Maharaj Project: 001 showcases the merging of two musical cultures, and two artists renowed as innovators in their field.

Release Schedule:
Dec 15: ‘Path of The Liger’ – Nickodemus & Maharaj Trio (single) 
Jan 26: ‘Asha (Splore)’ – Maharaj Trio (single)

Nickodemus & Maharaj Trio - Path of The Liger

Atropolis represents a sonic city of transcultural boom. A native of New York, his blood blends the village heat of Cyprus, the lore of Northern Europe, and the mysticism of the Maori. Stirring with a degree in composition, Atropolis mixes trained expression in classical piano and jazz guitar in a pot of ethnomusicology. His alchemical fusion transcends over dance floors, grounding ears in the rhythms of their global body.
