Baianasystem's Seko Bass transforms Guinu's future MPB classic, "Palagô", into a deep, dubby, Afro-Futurist dancefloor excursion that will appeal to tropical bass-obsessed djs and dancers worldwide. As Bainasystem's producer, Seko Bass has been at the forefront of pushing the group's heavy and socially-conscious sound to dominance in Brazil as it continues to simultaneously reverberate far beyond its borders. 

Razor-N-Tape fans will already know BaianaSystem through their epic collaboration with Brazilian psyche-funk legends, Antonio Carlos e Jocafi, on their track, "Água", which RNT released with remixes by JKriv & Diogo Strausz as well as UK’s veteran DJ & producer Jimpster. 

Seko's remix reaffirms the concept of propelling Afro-Brazilian music into the future, elevating the remix further with a guest appearance from BaianaSystem bandmate and iconic Brazilian MC/vocalist, Russo Passapusso, who penned a new verse especially for the remix. Whether or not non-Brazilian listeners will connect with the song’s deep and poetic lyrics, the undeniable visceral impact of the track will be felt on a universal level.

Hot on the heels of Guinu’s modern Brazilian jazz-funk opus Palagô LP, comes an exceptional remix 12” of four standout album tracks. For the A1, Jose Marquez flips the title track into a percussion-heavy and hypnotic Afro-Latin house burner, a masterful future classic of a mix that feels all but destined for late night Louie Vega or Osunlade sets. Faze Action harken back to their early-2000s vibe with their loungey beat-driven reimagining of Haja Fé.

On the flip, RNT stalwart Diogo Strausz takes the angular Electromandinga into the stratosphere, with anthemic synth melodies, rousing bloco percussion and interstellar vocal treatments. Rounding out the EP, well-loved Brazilian producer Carrot Green gives Porão de Ferro an 80s boogie makeover, complete with dubbed out vocals and funky synth bass work over bouncy analog beats.

Universal Cave unleash the 10th release in their catalogue with the Universal Cave wizards and dynamic duo Superprince sharing the re-edit duties. Universal Cave provide the goods for the A Side firing off a percussion heavy, Latin flavoured bomb in ‘Lambada’ – just wait for those epic fills, sure to whip any crowd into raptures. ‘Take Your Time (Universal Cave’s 909 Rubdown)’ then lays up a hip house vocal flavoured, 909 enhanced 80’s bomb. Flip it over and Superprince take the reigns with ‘Your Kind Of Love’ - funked up disco goodness, reworked with an extra helping of devilshness. The last slice of gold, ‘Hang High’ takes the tempo down to a string swelling, souped up, cosmic swagger. Two sides, two artists but four entrancing edits to add to the Universal Cave repertoire.

Lambada (Universal Cave Edit)

Kampana presents 4 doses of Afro disco and house, from Captain Planet, including his heavily in demand rework of Shina William’s Agboju Logun, fully licensed for this release.

The LA producer is at the top of his game across the EP, serving up a timeless blend of retro vocals, horns and percussion, with subtle but highly effective club-centred production. This record will not leave your box!

During a year like we've never seen before, the Sol Power Sound imprint reaches the proud milestone of its tenth release, "Lomé Connections in Hi-Fi" by the Sol Power All-Stars, because the music simply can't stop now.

To anchor the EP, the Sol Power All-Stars revisit some touchstones that have been featured on previous releases. Massama Dogo, of DC based band Elikeh, connects the capitol cities of Togo and the United States with "Va Sé Da", much as he did on the Sol Power All-Stars’ Djidjo Vide EP from 2016. Elikeh guitarist Frank Martins (who got his start with legendary 1970s Nigerian psych rock bands) propels the slinky afro groove while the LA-based Jungle Fire lends its infamous horn section to give the hook its punch.

The "Va Sé Dub" increases the slap factor as well as dancefloor tension, letting darker synths fill in the stripped down space as the Jungle Fire horns take center stage and stretch the jam all the way out.

The Jose Marquez mix of "Djidjo Vide" was previously only seen in digital form in 2016. This sturdy and deep take was just waiting in the wings to serve as the hidden muscle in the B1 slot of a physical release.

"Lift It Up Again" is a treat for adventurous selectors that closes the project. It carries the same DNA of the other tunes but pushes the vibe further left with dubbed out Caribbean samples, tripped out synths, and broken drum patterns.

"Lome Connections In Hi Fi" is set to come out tomorrow. You can pre-order your copy here!
