El productor chileno Waxuma nos presenta su primer EP, "Changó". Hecho a partir de grabaciones propias de algunos instrumentos como trompe, congas y cuerdas, es el resultado de la mezcla de los sonidos que vibran en él. Inspirado en los ritmos Yoruba y la multiculturalidad sonora, Waxuma compone en un proceso casi ritual, en un espacio y tiempo desapegado de lo cotidiano, entrando a su propio inconsciente. Se encuentran instinto más conocimiento hasta que florece la idea.

The black bird roared loudly from atop the chimney. It looked out upon the grassy fields which lay at the base of the house below. It cast an eerie shadow across the roof on which it sat, it was a haunted beast, a devilish instrument of witchcraft and pain. It's squawking could be heard for far and wide and it brought trouble across the land. Symbollic and hateful the crow would fly now, leaving with it a cursed trail of suffering and despair in its wake. 

Nickodemus & Alsarah unveil an enchanting release on Wonderwheel which has already been championed the likes of Gilles Peterson amongst others.

➡️ https://galletascalientesrecords.bandcamp.com/album/no-m-s-velorio-remixes

A innovative approach to reggae music. A truly unique fusion of genres.

From Tumaco, Colombia, Plu Con Pla fuses traditional rhythms from the Pacific coast of Colombia such as Currulao and Bunde, with reggae, hip-hop, and subtle electronic beats.

Plu Con Pla is an eleven piece band that brings together two distinct musical concepts, creating something we’ve never heard before.  
On front of the stage, a complete Currulao section sets the vibe with a powerful vocal combo, traditional instruments from the pacific coast of Colombia (bombo, cununo, marimba), and elements of West African origins (Ngoni, Djembe). They are joined by the force of a full reggae ensemble of drums, guitar, bass and keyboards.

The group takes its name from a traditional dish from Tumaco. “Plu” stands for Plumuda, a local fish, and “Pla” is short for “Platano”, the plantain you’ll have on your plate nearly every time you eat lunch in Colombia.

The title of their first EP, “No Mas Velorio”, speaks for itself: “No More Funerals”, sending a powerful message about how the region suffered from the civil war. “We ask forgiveness for whatever it is we’ve done, and we’ll live in the clouds, that way we won’t hurt anyone. We worked this soil, it was our land, but we’ll leave it to you, because we don’t want any more funerals…”

El español Alejandro Guillán bajo su alias Baiuca, remixó “Ilaló”, una de las canciones más interesantes del último álbum de estudio de Chancha Via Circuito llamado  “Bienaventuranza”, con la colaboración vocal de Mateo Kingman.
Esta versión cuenta con una impronta más electrónica que el original, en clave housera, con un pulso bailable que gira en torno a la voz del ecuatoriano Kingman y una melodía que viene desde Canale y su sensibilidad híbrida que combina dos mundos con envidiable sencillez. Un lujo que nos damos en DJ Mag Latinoamérica.

Bienaventuranza Remixes

PREMIERE: Chancha Via Circuito ft. Mateo Kingman "Ilaló" (Baiuca Remix)

'Jallalla' is out worldwide on June 7th.
Preview & Purchase: https://wonderwheelrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/jallalla

In 2017, Lagartijeando (Mati Zundel), released his second full length album ‘El Gran Poder,’ via Wonderwheel and subsequently hypnotized the masses with the way he laced the traditional Charango playing that he picked up traveling the Andes with the pulsing, digital-cumbia electronica that’d been popularized in the region by the likes of Chancha Via Circuito, Nicola Cruz, and beyond. El Gran Poder plucked Zundel from his small town of Dolores in Argentina and catapulted his sound onto a global stage. He was revered by the likes of The Fader and Bandcamp, who referred to him as an electro-folk alchemist - and that he is. 

On June 7, Lagartijeando casts a new spell with Jallalla, an ambitious new full length being released on Wonderwheel Recordings. Jallalla is a word used in Bolivia to celebrate something- and it’s a word that strengthens in meaning when more people say it together. Jallalla is an entire life in an album

Biomigrant is the musical project of producer and multi-instrumentalist Michael Alfred Wagner. In 2014, as part of a journey of musical exploration, he crossed Central America en bicycle, arriving to Colombia where he currently lives. As part of the Llorona Records tribute to the gaita flute master Manuel Antonio “Toño” García, Biomigrant put together a compilation of remixes of a piece made with the field recordings of Toño singing. El Buho, Quixosis, Lascivio Bohemia, Joaquín Cornejo, RLHBSLCN, Marcelo Bergés and Steffen Ki present beautiful and different takes of “La Muerte” giving us a broad picture of latin american electronic and world downtempo landscape.

I arrived to the house of the maestro Toño García in San Jacinto in May of 2014. I had just arrived to Colombia, finishing a bicycle journey that began in Guatemala. In Panama a traveling couple told me of Mr. García, and in Bogotá a friend put me in touch so I could visit him. I made it to San Jacinto, an iconic village of the Colombian Caribbean, and I spent various nights camping along the edge of the lake, in the mornings taking classes with Toño. I received my first Gaitas from him, while he showed me songs and told mi stories of his wanderings, struggles, successes, and loves.

Manuel Antonio ‘Toño’ García joined the Gaiteros de San Jacinto after the death of Mañe Mendoza, returning to a legacy that he had left behind for years to dedicate himself to agricultural work. Winner of a Latin Grammy for the album ‘Un Fuego de Sangre Pura’, along with a generation of the group that included his student Fredys Arrieta, el maestro sill lives in his house in San Jacinto where to this day he receives visits from a endless stream of students and lovers of Gaita music, sharing with them his music and wisdom.

There here taught me the song ‘Conmigo Nadie Se Meta’, written by Nando Coba. ‘La Muerte’ is a re-interpretation of that melody, with the voice of Toño and the gaita of Fredys. It was originally published en 2016 as part of ‘Aldea Mundial’, an audiovisual project (album and documentary) released with the chilean label Regional.

I am very grateful for the 7 tremendous artists and friends from Latin America and Europe for their remixes which offer a tribute to a great musician, person, and teacher. We are part of an emerging scene that looks to create a meeting grounds between electronica and traditional folk music, and the least we can do is try to give something back to those who have maintained the essence of rural musics.

All funds generated by this work will be given to Toño Garcia (who recently celebrated his 90th birthday) and his family as assistance that we hope will help to care for his health and upkeep in San Jacinto. Thank you to all who have contributed to this project and especially to Thomas Bosq for setting it all in motion. Michael - Biomigrant

Biomigrant - La Muerte (Joaquín Cornejo Remix)

Fresh from his recent 'Las Américas' album release on Frente Bolivariste we welcome producer and multi-instrumentalist https://soundcloud.com/biomigrant for the 21st installment of our Sanctuary series and he's going deep on his love of Colombian music. This is really a special one traversing folkloric roots to fresh contemporary sounds including some of his own productions. 

In his words... 
"I decided to do a selection celebrating timely and timeless Colombian productions, including alabaos, currulao, bullerengue, chirimilla, porro, cumbia, champeta, salsa choke, and electronica, featuring national record labels Llorona Records, Palenque Records, Mambo Negro Records, Sonidos Enraizados, Matik Matik Discos, and Juga Music, and a few unreleased Biomigrant tracks and field recordings.  Due to a series of circumstances, this is the longest I've been away from Colombia since I first arrived there, and the selection was a way for me to bridge the distance and warm my Chilean winter."
