Drop Your Guns - El Presidente Hi-Fi

"Put those guns down!"

The frantic desperation of a particular Hollywood icon opens the aural stage for PROIBIDŒ Vol.1: "Drop Your Guns'' by intentionally elusive multi-instrumentalist "El Presidente Hi-Fi ." Initially released in the year 2000, the aggressive but precise rhythms may serve as a mirror for our inner and outer worlds' chaotic nature and the exhilaration of not quite having it all planned out.

Originally limited to 150 copies (with instrumental stems lost to the wind), we are incredibly proud to bring this release to a new generation of dance-floors and headphones with three extremely unique remixes, transforming the record into a certified weapon. From a listener's perspective, both sides are loaded with ammunition for any given moment of a club night.

Following the fade-out of the original on Side A, you're metaphysically pulled into the world of multi-disciplinary artist Hugo Frasa @h_frasa. UK Broken beat percussion is synthesized with classic rave motifs to supplement the original's energy with a different brand of controlled chaos.

On the literal flipside of B1, Sisto @sistomusik supplies the critical warm-up 4x4 House heater. With a groove that's deep enough to lock into yet subtle enough to vibe out to, the Brazilian producer's signature style drips with satisfaction.

And as long as we're on the topic of satisfaction, Mau Maioli @maumaioli provides B2 with the unmistakable synthy arpeggiated crunch of the 1980s; the kind that soundtracks good and bad decisions alike. By playing with the iconic sample’s pitch, Maioli gives this closer a unique back-to-basics attitude, equally suitable for parking lot sunrises or highway night drives. Sleep at your own risk.

"The title track finds El Presidente Hi-Fi working it out with a tasteful, yet booty-shaking groove, with Latin percussion that leads to a solid breakdown laced with a horn-section riff. The flip’s harder kicking techno jam juxtaposes the violent vocal sample, “put the fucking guns down,” with a grooving, polyrhythmic arrangement." XLR8R, May 6, 2003.

Today we start a new chapter by bringing Radio Sala to Outsiders - a year-long audio residency in Belgium, invited by the fine folks from Kiosk Radio @kioskradio. Expect to hear from us once a month, featuring talents from all over the globe with the same curatorship standards.

Winter Wrong (Summer Wright) @winterwrong-349205681 has always used music to transcend the natural human connection to oneself and others. Whether it's through words and melodies or an instrumental track. Summer’s first single with the Australian label BASS WATER FREAK OUT is coming up this February.

This mix features a sequence of Bass frequencies, Electro & Baile Funk influenced, tailor-made for Concreta Sala’s Outsiders residency.

Concreta Sala is a femme-led creative lab, record label, and shop based in Miami; they are the co-creators of the vinyl compilation series PROIBIDŒ and booty bass itinerant party PROIBIDÆ.

"The first time I hear about Loud-E was in an article published by DJBroadcast and written by Eelco Couvreur, where he describes Loud E as a "disco-phenomenon with zero ambition." In the article, there were great pictures and descriptions, but I skimmed over the lines, saved it for the future and reading it with more depth never happened.

Time passed, and my friend Ramon (who I do Silk with) told me about this guy in Limburg who had "solid research and great passion for soft-erotic cinema soundtracks and was willing to collaborate with us." This chat happened before we had a monthly spot on Internet Public Radio and Silk's format was still undefined, so I proposed to interview him. He declined the invitation, and we had to look into different ways to make the collaboration happen. Months passed, and there was a lot of back and forth until we finally got his (two hours) incredibly rich mix.

It was only after I heard the mix, and it hit me hard with the so many ways that he used to express his taste and style, that I took the time to research his productions. What I found, and would love to comment here, is a kind of sonority that overcomes eras, something like fresh air blowing a familiar scent and It smells like disco spirit."
