ZZK Records presents Uji’s ‘Truenatruena’, the fifth single from his upcoming album and film 'TIMEBEING'.

Full of color and light, 'Truenatruena' offers some of the LP’s most bucolic moments, its clattering drums and playful flute melodies bouncing along with breezy abandon. Those melodies do eventually get a bit twisted up along the way, forming a sort of labyrinth that’s both disorienting and rather pleasurable.

‘Truenatruena’ will be released on August 17th with accompanying music video
'TIMEBEING' will be released on vinyl and all digital platforms on October 21st 2022

About Rural Beats
Rural Beats is the new EP that consists of 4 tracks by The Peronists that sound like a ﬁne mix of Argentine folkore, lo-ﬁ hip hop, downtempo, rural environments, electronic and organic electronic music.
Cumbia Andina (Rural Beats focus track) is a collaboration between Argentine producers The Peronists (Fede Randall) and Chancha Via Circuito (Pedro Canale).
Both producers have been part of the Argentine collective and label ZZK Records at the beginning of the millennium (since 2006) at an early age and both have shared their tracks in various compilations referring to the new sound of Argentine folktronics: ZZK Sound Vol. 1 and ZZK Sound Vol. 2 (ZZK Records, Argentina) and The Future Sound of Buenos Aires (Waxploitation, USA) and Nueva Cumbia Argentina - The Buenos Aires Implosion! (Soot Records, USA).

About The Peronists
From the age of 13 he began to ask his family to help him become a musician, since he had an obsession with sound and radio, he does not know very well where that concern came from, but it was always there and is still latent. His goals are to leave a mark of innovation in new urban genres, in stagnant and forgotten folk genres and make people dance as a producer and DJ, and make the listener have a good time.
Among his outstanding experiences are his participation in the Red Bull Music Academy in New York in 2013 where he took masterclasses among others, with Brian Eno. He released his music on labels such as ZZK Records, Desmo Records and Folcore Records. He currently works in sound design, composing and producing beats for the Red Bull Batalla de Gallos and for his personal music projects.

Desde los 13 años que comenzó a pedirle a su familia que le ayuden a ser músico, ya que tenía obsesión con el sonido y la radio, no sabe muy bien de dónde vino esa inquietud, pero siempre estuvo ahí y aún está latente. Sus  objetivos son dejar una huella de innovación en géneros urbanos nuevos, en géneros folklóricos estancados y olvidados y hacer bailar a las personas como productor y DJ, y hacer pasar un buen rato al oyente.
Entre sus experiencias destacadas ﬁguran su participación en la Red Bull Music Academy de New York en 2013 donde tomó masterclasses entre otros, con Brian Eno. Publicó su música en sellos como ZZK Records, Desmo Records y Folcore Records.

Fueguito

Folz B. - Kiss (Folcore 136)
-BUY WAV- folcore-records.bandcamp.com/album/kiss
- en castellano más abajo -

Folz B. is a music composer and artist from Argentina. His first EP for Folcore Records –which will be release soon– is entitled “Kiss”, just like his first single.

His songs transport the listener in an imaginary spaceship to very unusual places, around labyrinths that never end, and through mirrors that can either embellish or deform.

His music is highly danceable. The beat is the tour guide that takes the audience through multiple styles –from Latin pop to Brazilian samba, reggaeton, experimental music, hip hop, Afro-Cuban salsa, rock and even folk music from the Middle East.

The artist’s goal is to express his point of view about how the music that would make him dance should sound like. It would be a music that never bores, which doesn’t stop its stream of fresh ideas nor abuses repetition. A music that surprises –not a pre-made formula–, that is fun, original and makes the listener feel an unstoppable urge to dance. All of that combined with several levels of depth in the composition and arrangements.

Folz B. is mainly a keyboard player. He also sings and plays bass and various percussion instruments like Djembe, Congas and Udu. For the four songs of this EP “Kiss”, the artist worked with a wide variety of pianos, organs, synthesizers, samplers and drum machines. There is a meticulous and complex framework of arrangements, yet the final product sounds very nice and fresh to the ear.

Folz B. es un compositor y artista solista argentino. Su primer EP para Folcore Records, que será lanzado en breve, se llamará "Kiss" ("Beso"), al igual que su primer single.

Las canciones de Folz B. están planteadas como si quien las escuchara se subiera a una nave espacial que lo transportara por lugares inusitados, por laberintos que nunca terminan de definirse, a través de espejos que pueden embellecer tanto como deformar.

Su música es muy bailable, donde el beat es el hilo conductor dentro de esta cápsula imaginaria. Es el beat el que nos abre senderos que conducen hacia una múltiple diversidad estilística. Desde pop latino hasta samba brasilero, pasando por reguetón, música experimental, hip hop, salsa afro-cubana, rock y hasta música folk de Medio Oriente.

El objetivo buscado por el artista es expresar su punto de vista sobre cómo debería ser una música que lo haga bailar a él. Una música que jamás aburra, que nunca detenga su torrente de ideas frescas, que no abuse de la repetición, que sorprenda, que no sea una fórmula preconcebida, que divierta, que sea original y que provoque un irrefrenable deseo de bailar. Todo ello combinado con varios niveles de profundidad en sus arreglos y composición.

Folz B. es principalmente tecladista. También canta y toca el bajo y varios instrumentos de percusión, como el Djembé, las Congas y el Udú. Para las cuatro canciones de este EP “Kiss”, Folz B. trabajó con una amplia gama de pianos, órganos, sintetizadores, samplers y baterías electrónicas. Se aprecia un meticuloso y complejo entramado de arreglos, logrado de tal forma que suena agradable y fresco al oído.

About ALMHD (instrumental)

ALMHD is a track created by Pablo after woke up one summer day of 2021, for this reason the name came from Almohada (Pillow), continuing the energy of the dreams, inspired on chill lofi sounds with reggaeton groove, to dance dreaming on a beach from latinamérica.

It is the first single by Don Plok after his first European Tour, as the first release of his next album, in a collaboration between the Folcore and Rebel Up labels. Mixed at Nogal Estudio and Oídos Contentos, mastered at Oídos Contentos by Manuel Schaller, producer of the album with Pablo.

The next singles will feature important international featurings, such as Soom T. Each month a new single will be released prior to the release of the album in digital and vinyl format, which will be published at the end of April or beginning of May, anticipating their next European Tour.

Acerca de ALMHD (instrumental)

Este track suave y bailable combina un beat de reggaetón con armonías que asoman al RNB o nu soul, sin perder la cadencia de los ritmos latinoaméricanos.

ALMHD es un track creado en una mañana después de levantarse, (el nombre viene de Almohada). Continuando el mood de los sueños, Pablo aka Don Plok presenta guiños melódicos de RnB o lofi, con un groove de reggaeton que invita a bailar en una playa de latinoamérica. Es el primer single de Don Plok después de su primer Tour Europeo, como primer lanzamiento de su próximo álbum, en una colaboración entre los sellos Folcore y Rebel Up. Mezclado en Nogal Estudio y Oídos Contentos, masterizado en Oídos Contentos por Manuel Schaller, productor del disco junto a Pablo.
Los próximos singles contarán con importantes featurings internacionales, como Soom T. Cada mes saldrá un nuevo single previo al lanzamiento del álbum en formato digital y vinilo, el cual se publicará a finales de abril o principios de mayo, anticipando su próximo Tour Europeo.

Acerca de Don Plok

Fundador de Guateque Soundz y Dunumba Soundsystem, con influencias que pasan por bass music, folclores latinoamericanos, diversos géneros de electronica y las cumbias de de su adolescencia, pero con una clara base estético-filosófica en la música de raíz afro - y su sincretismo para con las corrientes urbanas de latinoamérica. Sus álbums y singles, sirven como testimonio de una exploración sonora que lo lleva a mezclar ritmos modernos con patrones tradicionales africanos; samples de vinilos, percusión y sintetizadores, con un destacado estilo personal que se ve en sus presentaciones.

~ Entangled minds, noospheric realm, astral projections & inner dancing ~

We are delighted to present H2O & GATS' collaborative EP, "Trance Illusion".

Taken from the two sonic explorers’ aquatic jam sessions in Berlin, these four tracks delve into subaquatic machinery and synaptic oscillations. Intuitive, time-distorting, mind melting improvisations recorded between 2019 and 2020 in Matthias Kanik's (GATS) studio.

For the first time, these soundwaves will be translated into the physical world in the shape of a limited Cassette (K7) pressing, inaugurating the Curuba Tapes series ////
