@sonidoberzerk - Palo Monte EP (Wile Out)[03-03-2023]

A long time collaborator & friend Sonido Berzerk label head of Mexican Juke platform @tentoesturbo is a globally recognised producer and DJ extraordinaire having represented his sound on @boilerroomtv @djmagofficial @rinse.fm @bbc1xtra and a load of electronic music platforms.

Palo Monte is a 5 track EP which was inspired by his time growing up in the coast of Veracruz which was a settlement of African slaves that gained independence & freedom through revolt.

Each track shares a unique story and journey navigating through a history of Mexico’s indigenous cultural importance and its Afro diaspora influence.

You can stream/download the full release via link up top.

Obeka - Move Like So Remixes (out on the 31st of March via Basy Tropikalne)

'Move Like So Remixes' not only reimagines 2021's EP full of Afro-Caribbean explorations courtesy of Bermuda-born producer Obeka (@djobeka) but also perfectly showcases different approaches to the art of remixing.

Take 'Test System' - a dancehall-infused track that has proven to be the most popular song from the original release with radio plays in Kampire's BBC Radio 1 residency among others - which comes back in a form of three impressively distinct versions. Influential Peruvian duo Dengue Dengue Dengue (@dengue) revisit their DNGDNGDNG alias and brilliantly come up with a rework in which jungle breaks smoothly intertwine with reggaeton. Further into the EP you can hear the voice of Swordman Kitala, a talented Ugandan MC with numerous appearances on Nyege Nyege's sister label Hakuna Kulala, who flawlessly delivers his verses in Luganda alongside original beat produced by Obeka. Last but not least, a true gem has been cooked up by DJ Danifox (@djdanifox). Strongly departing from the original, he brings his characteristic sound that ideally sets the tone for closing the release with an almost jazzy feel and a somewhat nostalgic manner (saudade, one may say).

Two remaining instrumental songs from 'Move Like So' also get new versions - and both will be perfect for your DJ sets. Title track receives a speeding up treatment from Ultima Esuna, Mexican artist already gathering much deserved attention for her dancehall-leaning compositions that earned her a place on the 2022 Nervous Horizon compilation. And then there's Bandicut, one of the key figures in the Lisbon's global bass scene, who went all out and delivered a true banger making use of the West African drums from the original song.

KAIFO (@user-710965004) - Hecho Leña (taken from 'Rural', out on the 15th of September via @eck-echo)

Another culturally valuable project will be soon delivered by Eck Echo as Ecuadorian producer Kaifo is about to publish his debut full-length album via this Berlin-based label. Departing from the club-oriented sound of his previous this year's release, the classically trained artist this time focuses on the Ecuadorian keyboard traditions which he mixed with rhythms carried by bomba, a drum central to the Afro-Ecuadorian music of the same name. These unusual inspirations resulted in an astonishing, hard to define LP that's just as folk as it is electronic.
