- En castellano más abajo -

In Venezuela "Bululú" is synonymous with agglomeration, tumult, crowd.

This EP is made up of 4 tracks - 2 singles and 2 remixes - where Candeleros gives off all his magic and energy at the service of dance and debauchery. A crowd that dances to the frenetic psychedelic rhythm of the Caribbean.

"La Meseta" mixes different rhythms, both Afro-Venezuelan and Caribbean. It is a cover of a Turkish folk song called Yaylalar performed by artists like Selda Bagcam.

The remix of "La Meseta" was done by Venezuelan producer Caribombo, who lives in France.

"Le Quedan Dos" is a cumbia-salsa, with a Gaita de Tambora arrangement at the end of the song, a rhythm from the southern coast of Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela.

It features the great singer Perro Loco del Amazonas on vocals.

The remix is by Matt Mansfield "Piper Street Sound" (US) in dub version.

The art is by the incomparable Laura Ortiz "Soma".

La Meseta (Caribombo Remix)

Originally recorded in 1979 in Paris but only released independently in Brazil in 1981, Fernando Falcão´s "Curimão" was released on the "Memória Das Aguas" album. Originally a much sought after record, it was re-released by Selva Discos in 2019.

Its mastermind, Fernando Falcão, left Brasil in 1968 during the peak of military dictatorship and moved to France, where he lived in exile for 15 years. There, after working in music, acting, and sculpting, he involved himself in Jérôme Savary's legendary Grand Magic Circus, where he met his first wife, Valérie Kling. It was from this relationship that a partnership began between the musician and his father-in-law, the artist François-Xavier Lalanne, who guided Falcão in the process of inventing sound sculptures such as the balauê – a horizontal version of the berimbau string instrument whose sound was influenced by a water stream (since there was a hose soaking parts of the balauê wet during the performances). Much of this exploration and experimentation resulted in the album "Memória das Águas", from which "Curimão" stems from.

A long time fan of Fernando Falcão´s music, Daniel Haaksman now enhanced „Curimão“ with heavy bass and turned this rare groove into a club friendly DJ track. It´s #1 in the "More Black Atlantica Edits" series which will kick off on Man Recordings in Janaury. It´s predecessor, "Black Atlantica Edits" was released on BBE records early 2020.
