DAY ZERO

Countdown to Zero

Thievery Corporation have grown very strong roots in the Rivera Maya over the years, but have never had a chance to play a liveshow in the area. DAY ZERO is proud to be presenting the first live show in Playa del Carmen with Thievery Corporation.   

"This is a mix of some of my favorite tripped out, orchestral, brazilian/latin, and cinematic music from the past, way before the current electronic music explosion. There’s many beautiful gems from all corners of the globe, these are the kinds of sounds that inspired Eric and myself when we started Thievery Corporation.  I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making this mix. We look forward to seeing you in Mexico celebrating our galactic journey;) at Day Zero! 

Ahau,"   -   Rob Garza - Thievery Corporation

Babylon Rockers #27 — Reggae Jazz

1) Tell us a bit about yourself and your record collection

SoulBrigada was initiated 2009 by Alex D. & Fabio V. as a platform for own events in the trijunction on the lake of constance in the south of germany. Alex also started to spin records on this events and abroad. In 2011 the first studio collaboration leads to an exclusive vinyl only release with their remix of a track by Gilles Peterson's Havana Cultura Band on Poets Club Records.
Due to time time constraints and spatial distance Fabio had to withdraw from this project a little bit so that Alex runs nowadays SoulBrigada mainly. Further tracks was released in 2013 on 7inch on english label KAT45 Records and the own 2016-founded Matasuna Records. The focus is now on the label work and spreading the Matasuna vibe on festivals and clubs across europe.
The record collection is approx. 1500 records – one third 7inches and two third 10“ and 12“. I collect a broad range of different records from all over the world. I also like to buy records on my vacations like in Japan, California, Greece, Portugal etc. So for me my collection is more than only music – it's also a memory to special moments of my life. Most of the time when i put out a vinyl from the collection these memories came back to mind.

2) 45/7 is all about celebrating the 7". Can you tell us a bit about what you love about the format.

It's more challenging to play with 7inches: on one hand the mixing of the tracks because there's no long in- or outros like on an extended 12“ Disco Single. On the other hand you have to be focused a lot on the mix because of the short play time of the 7“. But i like this kind of challange.
And also the size and weight of the record bag is optimal for trips abroad.

3) One hour of vinyl goodness... can you talk us through your selection for your 45/7 mix?

I was influenced by Djs & Diggers like Paul Nice, Mr. Scruff, Kenny Dope or DJ Muro which couldn't be categorized in a specific genre and suprised again and again with their musical taste. It would be a loss to be restricted to a certain genre because there's so incredible good music out there. This is also the philosophy of SoulBrigada: as the name associates, Soulmusic is obligatory but there isn't a limit to this genre – the main point is the SOUL in the music.
So this exclusive 7inch vinyl only mix reflects excellent the musical bandwith of the SoulBrigada sound. It's ranging from Reggae, Calypso, Brazil, Tropical, Orienta l, Asia over to Funk, Breaks, Boogie towards Dubby Disco.

4) Where can people catch you / listen to your music?

A genius, a maestro, already sampled by big names. But we had to do something around this Sir who recently passed away. From "The Nucleus", the musical "Two Gentleman of Verona", the unfamous "Boogie Man" & of course "Shapes Of Rythm" we tried to make a journey through the world of McDarmot. Hope you'll have a nice trip with us. 

RIP Galt MacDarmot.

Captain Planet has been on a roll over the last year, with the release his acclaimed debut album “Cookin’ Gumbo”, an expansive European tour, and a steady stream of head-turning remixes for heavyweights like Ana Tijoux, Katy B, AM & Shawn Lee, The Pimps of Joytime, Scrimshire and more. Now the wayfaring dj/producer returns to Bastard Jazz for a very special cassette tape project entitled “Mystery Trip Vol. 1”.
 
Approaching the project with a classic mixtape mentality and drawing inspiration from Madlib’s “Medicine Show” series, the Captain has sourced out sounds from all corners of the globe. Obscure cuts were ripped from vinyl, then sliced, diced, chopped and skewed with a hefty injection of original production, programming and homegrown field recordings from his travels around the world.  What’s resulted is a 45 minute multi-generational sonic journey, touching on sounds from Senegal, Jamaica, Ghana, Puerto Rico, Peru, Brazil, Italy, Korea, Guadeloupe, and Zimbabwe, that reflect the depth of the Captain’s crates and his skills behind the boards. “Mystery Trip” is not just a DJ mix nor a collection of simple edits but rather an entirely new piece of work from C.P. - a love letter  to the funky sounds of our planet and the rare vinyl it hides in dusty junk shops, back alleyways, basements and attics.
 
Each limited-edition “Mystery Trip” Cassette tape comes with a free digital download of separated tracks/edits, along with the full digi-mix. As an added bonus, Captain Planet is hand-painting an exclusive batch of Walkmen with his own one-of-a-kind designs, which will be available as a premium pack with the tape at the Bastard Jazz store. A contest is also underway to win a special hand-painted vintage Boombox to blast the funky outernational sounds of this Mystery Trip in style! Find out more at bastardjazz.com

Captain Planet - Mystery Trip Vol. 1 Mixtape

One of my favorite festivals in the World is the Radio Meuh Circus Festival nestled in the small ski village of Clusaz in the French Alps. It was quite an honor & excitement to play an entire night start to finish to kick off the 2019 festival with my partner in Turntables on the Hudson sound system, Nappy G on percussion. Although his drum head broke in the middle of the night, he managed to make magic & keep the rhythms flowing till the end freestyle with me on the CDJ's making beats, him rocking the broken congas & a beautiful charged up crowd keeping the energy very high! We get down anywhere anytime full of passion & heart & if you can imagine this very packed crowd sweating all up on top of each other, dancing, smiling, grinding, drinking... you get the idea of a Radio Meuh, Turntables on the Hudson, Alps, Nile, Ramblas, Danube, Ipanema, Caribbean vibes! Hope you enjoy this mix & we meet again on a dance-floor soon. Nickodemus
