Cyber Basss - Hooker (Club Mix)

The prolific Mexican label Duro kicks off the second half of the year with an explosion of rhythm and movement courtesy of the duo Factory Setup. Their highly anticipated EP, "Afrikka", lands on June 27, 2025, promising a deep dive into hypnotic grooves, and infectious percussions.

Factory Setup, the project born from the synergy of Joseeph and Zhino – both residents of Guadalajara's iconic Bar Américas. Their approach, which unearths forgotten gems from the late '80s, '90s, and 2000s and combines them with contemporary freshness, finds its ultimate expression in "Afrikka," a work celebrating the vibrant connection between Latin and African rhythms.

The sonic journey begins with "Afrikka (Original Mix)", which exposes the raw backbone of the groove, allowing the percussive mystique and captivating vocals to take center stage. This leads seamlessly into "Flow First (Original Mix)", a hypnotic cut that maintains its intoxicating essence by stripping away the piano, revealing a deeper, constant pulse that ensnares you in its wave.

Adding an unyielding dimension, the EP includes the "Flow First (Hardvard Bass Remix)". With solid drums and demented synthesizers, Hardvard Bass constructs a sonic voyage where a booming bassline guides you through a shower of synths. It's a tech house-oriented track that pushes the energy to new limits, perfect for the dancefloor's most intense moments.

Next, the energy ignites with "Afrikka (Stab Mix)", a pure Latin house anthem that transports you directly to a sun-drenched dancefloor. Its ancient African percussions fuse with psychedelic vocals and an insistent, rhythmic stab, creating a groove you simply won't want to stop. The EP then beautifully circles back with "Flow First (Piano Mix)", where a playful array of drums and percussions intertwines with a piano that simply invites you to move, as soothing vocals envelop you in a rhythmic spiral, lifting both soul and body in an uninterrupted dance.

Factory Setup's "Afrikka" is more than just an EP; it's a celebration of global rhythm, an invitation to a complete surrender to the groove.
