Given the breadth of influences and  Pollockian method of application, there are lots of ways to describe Tuscan speedball (not to mention new father (congrats))  Clap! Clap!'s music – but  Black Acre's coining of 'global sound harvest' might just be the best we've seen so far. The label are releasing a new 12", which picks up right where  Tayi Bebba left off. It crackles with energy and is hard not to love, much like the man himself. As if the short, sweet banger wasn't enough, there's even a pair of camouflage socks that come with the release. No, genuinely. Amazing scenes:  http://smarturl.it/ClapClapSox

Remix by @IZem

It´s been a bit more than four months since Daniel Haaksman´s "African Fabrics" album has been released and it has become a success story. "African Fabrics" was nominated for a German Music Critic prize, was praised on diverse leading media outlets such as SPIN, NPR, XLR8R, Der Spiegel, NZZ, Songlines Magazine and Goethe Institute Podcast amongst others and has been played by countless club and radio DJs around the world. 

The accompanying single releases "Sabado", "Rename The Streets" and "Akabongi" received remix treatments, now the other tracks of the albums have been reworked and the result is "African Fabrics Remixes", which presents a trans world cast of amazing remixers. 

First off, is South African Mo Laudi with an Afro house rendering of "Akabongi". It´s followed by three remixes featuring the hot new Lisbon sound 2Pekes, a member of the infamous DZC Deejays crew remixed "Sembène" in Euro kuduro fashion, whereas Izem put "Kaggua" ft. Tshila on a broken beat turf. Man of the moment Dotorado, also hailing from Lisbon, is featured with his version of "Rename The Streets". UK´s freestyle bass dons LV revisit "Sabado" with a London carnival mood. Then there´s São Paulo´s hot new beat talent Bad $ista who samba-funked up "Black Coffee" ft. Dama Do Bling. Another Lisbon remix contribution is by legendary Portuguese kuduro don DJ NK remaking "Xinguila" ft. Throes + The Shine in a raved up kuduro smasher. Swedish bass maestro Dance, Kill, Move tamed the original footwork monster "Aho" to a tarraxo influenced half timer. Probably the heaviest remix on "African Fabrics Remixes" is by São Paulo´s ambassador of low end schlepp beats, Cybass, who put "Afrika" ft. Tony Amado ft. Alcinda Gueraneh into madness territories. Durban´s Gqom kingpins Rudeboyz added a weighty groove to the Mbira infused "Raindrops" track, turning it into a club ready track. And finally, New Zealands Afro popster Weird Together remade "Querido" ft. Bulldozer with a UK funky inspired mood. 

And there you have it, "African Fabrics Remixes", featuring eleven diverse and club-friendly remixes that will put "African Fabrics" in further and more varied contexts. Play it out!

It goes without saying that we are extremely excited to announced the new single Kilo from Brazil's wildest trio and our first love.... Bonde do Rolê! Kilo's 60s Psych vibe meets Brazilian rhythms and Bonde's wild innuendoes makes for the perfect summer time anthem! Along with the original version of Kilo, we've got a dubbed out reggae remix from LA's Turbotito that will fit perfectly in your tropical pool party playlist.

In 2007, when their debut album With Lasers was released and Diplo and Pitchfork and the Fader and everyone else talked about how wild and weird and wonderful they were, it seemed like a stunt. In 2012, with their second album Tropicalbacanal about to be released, they’re even more wild, more weird, and more wonderful.

A Year Under

Clap! Clap! - Quietude (DJ Haram Remix)

Sault´s "Black Is" album was my favourite album of 2020 and as I wanted to play out some of its tunes in DJ mixes for radio, I made a samba dub version of "Don´t Shoot Guns Down" adding Brazilian flavour to the original track . Samba, since it originally emerged in Rio de Janeiro in the 1920s, was always a source of joy yet often contained political lyrics dealing with current social and political issues. So what better groove format for my edit to enhance Sault´s original track which addresses the ongoing police violence against Black people.
