Nightmares on Wax - Master Plan

On the heels of a steady rising, break out year in New York City, which has seen La Mecanica Popular perform & refine their "Psychedelic Salsa" sound in numerous venues throughout the area, as well as advance to become one of just 3 national finalists in Dewar's "Dewaristas: The Search for the Next Great Latin Sound," Names You Can Trust presents their debut long-player to a worldwide audience for the first time. Led off by the lead single and official video which dropped earlier in the year on NYCT, La Paz Del Freak, the album weaves it's way around the traditional stylings of Salsa & Bolero, with a heavy dose of electrico, incorporating a blend of Peruvian guitars & experimental synths, sounds and textures. They've been praised for their live performances and recordings alike, receiving endorsements and spins from notables such as Juanes, Quantic, Gilles Peterson & Bobbito to name a few.

The 9-track album of original compositions was recorded between NYC & Peru, written by band-leader Efrain Rozas and co-produced alongside Xuxi Lazzaro (Rita Indiana) & Manuel Garcia Orozco. Feautring a melting pot of musicians from New York, Colombia, Peru & Venezuela, as well as the core 8-piece ensemble that performs live, this debut album serves as a welcome connection between the roots, rhythms, and future possibilities of Tropical music and culture.

"La Mecánica Popular is the most refreshing attempt at maintaining Salsa's integrity while introducing a completely new, unprecedented sound that I've ever heard. I totally see them being HUGE!" Bobbito Garcia - Doin' It In The Park, NYC

"Love it. Heavy vibes on this one! Sounds like Dax Pacem live in Peru on Ayahuasca."
Quantic - Tru Thoughts, Soundway

"Storming debut release from La Mecánica Popular on NYCT - dancefloor-burning guaguanco meets tripped-out electronics for some cosmic salsa vibes, definitely one for the box!" Hugo Mendez - Sofrito

"You might eargasm over the way they take psych-influenced sounds of Fania-era salsa and mash it with wavy vibes of '70s Peruvian chicha." MTV Iggy

"Like a cross between adventurous 1970's Fania-released Latin jazz fusion and the modern psychedelic sound of Chicano Batman. Favorite track: La Paz Del Freak." Andrew Jervis - Bandcamp Weekly

Este tema fue escrito para la banda sinfónica juvenil de Puebla - Mexico CECAMBA. Interpretada por niños entre los 11 y 17 años. Escrita y grabada en el 2006 como parte de una residencia artística en México. 

Written and recorded in 2006 as part of an artistic residence en Puebla - Mexico. Performed by CECAMBA, kids from 11 to 17 years old. 

Cumbia Del Asilo

The latest in Names You Can Trust's series of tropical 45s is a sublime Dub Cumbia from El Combo Chimbita, an offshoot of the fast-rising MAKU Soundsystem. MAKU and El Combo Chimbita are comprised of young first-generation New Yorkers from Colombia, and their sound combines the duel trombone attack of classic NYC Salsa with a rootsy, bass-heavy, laid back groove. Completely organic, "Puro Show" has an undeniable funky charm.

The flip sees the much anticipated return of Greenwood Rhythm Coalition, who completely hotrod the original track, adding new instrumentation while turning it into a hard charging Ska that sounds like the Studio One house band live in Cartagena. "Puro Rock" is primed and ready for the dance floor!

If You Wait - Remixes 2

Hey Now (Zero 7 Remix)

Bogota's Meridian Brothers return to Names You Can Trust with a brand-new double-sided single. Having made their mark on the local scene in Colombia for over a decade, the last few years have brought Eblis Álvarez and his strange brew of tropical rhythms, wonderfully outrageous electronic sounds and unique, playful vocal style into the consciousness of a world wide audience. Building on the success of their previous album 'Deseperanza' as well as the upcoming 'Salvadora Robot' (both out via Soundway Records),  Álvarez has concocted two new gems exclusively for this NYCT release.

Recorded inside Álvarez's Isaac Newton Studios, these quirky yet seductive experiments in cumbia are further proof that Meridian Brothers and their rare style are unmatched in the modern landscape. Lamento Calavera, a mostly instrumental, electronic beat and synthesizer infused study on cumbion (fast cumbia) builds at a frenetic pace until the choir (as done by Los Maravillosos) resets. El Faraón Miente, a jazzy mid-tempo cumbia, rides along effortlessly with its carousel-like melody and bubbling Peruvian-influenced guitar riffs. With a cover illustration by Álvarez himself, this is another automatic collector's piece from Meridian Brothers and Names You Can Trust.

Releases worldwide on May 26, 2014 on Digital / 7" vinyl.
Supreme weight picture cover package on Recycled Board.

This dance floor gem celebrates the spirit of women in all social spaces.  From home to work to the dance floor, it's time to reclaim that feminine spirit & energy.  

DJ Yukicito (of L.A.'s La Junta Soundsystem) remixed our 'Mujer Soy' track, which tells stories of women claiming their freedom & surviving violence, into a high energy song featuring Native American flute & the voices of Las Cafeteras.  Reclaim the dance floor for womyn with this song.   
#RemixHERstory  #MujerSoy #RootsRemixed

Este canción destaca el PODER y la resistencia que inherentemente poseen las mujeres; e intenta transformar la pista de baile en un espacio donde celebramos nosotras mismas y las mujeres en nuestras vidas.   DJ Yukicito de Los Angeles, hizo este remix de nuestra canción acustica 'Mujer Soy', y lo convertio en una canción electronica para bailar.  

Mujer Soy (Yukicito Remix)

Names You Can Trust presents the debut vinyl release from Romperayo, a new band led by drummer Pedro Ojeda (Los Pirañas, Frente Cumbiero, Ondatrópica). Further expanding the burgeoning live music scene of Bogotá, Colombia and featuring many of the same talented family of musicians, Romperayo similarly takes its musical cues from Colombia's rich musical history. These recordings dive deep into the country's coastal traditions with a unique present day twist via the inspired percussion of bandleader Ojeda, a melting pot of rhythms played with his own manic flare and style.

El Busetero Buscapleitos is deeply inspired by the rhythms and textures that made their way through the Caribbean and into the local picos (sound systems). A nod to musical outfits of the 1970's such as Wganda Kenya & Son Palenque, the song is a mixture of styles from West Africa, Trinidad and Haiti married with popular Colombian rhythms of the Caribbean coast like cumbia and chandé.

Que Viva La Vida y Que Muera La Muerte derives from the other coastal region of Colombia, the Pacific. Inspired by the Afro-Colombian form curralao, traditionally played with wooden drums, shakers & a marimba, it is here updated and electrified in a stripped down tribute to the grand orchestra of Peregoyo y su Combo.


Recorded in Audiovision Studios, Bogotá.
Mixed by Eblis Alvarez at Isaac Newton Studios.
Mastered by Frank at The Carvery, London.

Composed & Arranged by Pedro Ojeda.

A mediados del 2009 el FRENTE CUMBIERO invitó a Bogotá al legendario productor de dub Mad Professor, como parte del proyecto Incubator del British Council, con el objetivo de realizar un encuentro sonoro entre la cumbia y el dub. Durante 3 días y bajo la orientación de Mad Professor y su hijo Joe Ariwa, se grabaron en los estudios de la Facultad de Artes de la Universidad Javeriana varios temas para ser tratados bajo la estética del dub. Además de grabar composiciones originales del FRENTE, parte importante del proyecto buscaba reunir a músicos claves de la escena bogotana a improvisar y crear juntos en estudio.

De esas improvisaciones salieron 3 composiciones colectivas, que se suman a 4 originales del FRENTE para un total de 7 temas que fueron remezclados con técnicas propias del dub por Mad Professor en su estudio ARIWA en Londres. El resultado de este disco, además de convertirse en uno de los primeros encuentros tangibles entre la cumbia y el dub, aporta un nuevo sonido colombiano al poderoso movimiento de cumbia continental.
