Almost one year ago to the date, Buraka Som Sistema were called to perform on the first Boiler Room in their hometown of Lisbon. On the first 15 minutes of this now-legendary set (which you can still watch on Youtube) a new sound was introduced to the world. An intense, hypnotic and tropical-flavored 90 BPM beat got the crowd moving and Buraka’s sharply-dressed master of ceremonies Kalaf picked up the microphone - “We call it Zouk Bass”, he shouted. The crowd went wild and a new genre was officially born. 

Fast-forward one year into the present and Zouk Bass is now a worldwide phenomenon. From its origins as Antillean fast-paced party music - the word Zouk actually means party in the local creole - to being slowed-down and sensualized in Angola under the name Kizomba, to finally brought into the Global Club Music melting pot by Buraka Som Sistema, this sound has come a long way. 

Showcasing zouk maestros from all around the world, from USA’s JSTJR to Russia’s Insane Fennel, including Portugal’s DZC Deejays, the UK’s KJs, France’s Mala Noche and Buraka Som Sistema themselves - among many others - ‘We Call It Zouk Bass Volume I’ presents a truly global scene, united under the mission of making dance floors move a bit slower and a lot sexier.

After the Venezuelan Tuki masters Pocz & Pacheko kickstarted Upper Cuts Season 2 with the heavy-hitting techno bomb Taladro, our journey now takes us further down the jungles of Latin America to Peru, where the mysterious masked duo Dengue Dengue Dengue! can be found revolutionizing the cumbia scene. 

Drawing inspiration from the thriving and psychedelic cumbia scene of the 70s, Filipe Salmon and Rafael Pereira have been fusing these traditional rhythms with modern techno beats, with a twist of Jamaican dancehall swagger and dub ambiance, creating a unique and mesmerizing sound in the process. Their amazing debut album 'La Alianza Profana' has wowed critics and listeners alike, which coupled with their surreal videos and audio-visual live shows has won them countless fans the world over, making them one of the most impressive new acts in the tropical electronica scene. 

In Lokumba they momentarily break away from the expected cumbia template and favor a choppy, bass-heavy hip-hop-influenced beat, splashed with haunting synths and their unmistakeable mystical vibe with a tropical flair. If releasing tracks like this one doesn't honor our commitment to bringing you the hottest electronic music made south of the equator, we don't know what will.

After bringing you cutting edge tropical sounds from established global bass artists like Buraka Som Sistema, Branko or Dengue Dengue Dengue!, it's time for the Upper Cuts series to bring you something completely new. And by new we mean really new. 

We were sitting in the office going through the mountain of promos in our inbox, when we found an email by a British producer named Castro. We opened it, not knowing what to expect, and what we found was Toot Toot, one of the most addictive zouk bass tunes we've heard since the whole craze started in the Boiler Room. We just had to have it here and now. 

Join us in welcoming Castro, a British producer whose background as a percussionist and love of ethnic rhythms gives his tracks a distinctive bounce, which he complements with an extensive knowledge of the dancefloor's demands. In the latest track on the Upper Cuts series, Castro pairs up heavy drums with vibrant synths and colorful melodies, all under the hypnotic 90bpm pace that Buraka helped to popularize, with some moombah elements and vocal samples thrown in for good measure. 

Besides having one of the most addictive beats we've heard in months, Castro's first single Toot Toot is one of those tracks that just inspires us to have a good time. Let's play this one loud and bring the fun back to the dancefloor.

“Depressed Buttons sounds like techno gone wrong from children of the corn in Nebraska” - Diplo

Most commonly known as three-fifths of the influential indie synth outfit, The Faint, Clark Baechle, Todd Fink, and Jacob Thiele have begun their journey into the future of sound with their new project Depressed Buttons. With a filthy lust for synthesizers, the band creates all their own tracks leaving listeners entranced and entangled within a web of angular stabs and thick pads.  Don’t let the word “depressed” fool you, a button that's depressed isn't sad, it's turned on, which is exactly what QWERTY does to listeners.

Depressed Buttons-Ow!

The almighty Buraka Som Sistema join the Upper Cuts free download series on a mission to give the world yet another musical genre to dance to. The tropical downtempo madness of first 15 minutes of their now legendary Boiler Room set marked the introduction of Zouk Bass, a brand new tropical hybrid born from the meeting of the French Antillan rhythms of zouk - and its Lusophone relative kizomba - with the bass-heavy styles of the UK underground. 

Zouk Flute is the name of the track that brings the slow and sexy zouk rhythms to the 21st century clubs. A mischievous and downright hypnotic melody instantly puts you in the mood for dancing in dimly lit rooms, giving the style's tropical heritage a dangerous modern edge. While the charming synths reel you in, the heavy slow-paced beats and thick sub-bass pressure promise to keep you nailed to the dancefloor, ocasionally breaking the spell to ask the DJ for yet another rewind. 

As it happened all those years ago with the fast-paced Angolan rhythms of kuduro, yet another tropical revolution in electronic dance music can be traced back to Buraka Som Sistema's studio. While the beats radically change this time around, the need to make people dance their troubles away stays the same. Because dancing is always the best remedy, why not do it a bit slower?

After Branko kickstarted the Upper Cuts series with his stunning Njena Reddd Foxxx collaboration and Buraka Som Sistema contributed with the genre-defining Zouk Flute, now it’s time for another Buraka founding member to enter the series. We’re talking about Riot, the eclectic DJ and producer who started the global kuduro revolution with Branko and the rest of the crew, and is still turning heads on the Portuguese drum&bass and dubstep scene.

Since it was up to him to close the first Upper Cuts season in style, he decided to surprise everyone with a personal take on the fresh Zouk Bass genre by fusing slow Caribbean-influenced beats with the fast-paced rhythm of drum&bass. This unlikely blend has produced some amazing results and is already finding its way into the digital DJ bags of several prominent artists such as DJ Zinc, Toddla T, Brodinski, Nick Catchdubs, Dave Nada and Astronomar, among many others rushing to show support.
