Featuring eight different artists from Mexico to Lithuania, Peru, Portugal, Florida, UK and Belgium, ‘Maloca Vol. 1’ outlines the worldly focus of @le-motel’s new label @malocarecords.

The label’s ethos is to build bridges interlinking disparate yet like-minded musicians dedicated to blending organic electronic and acoustic elements. The global network of makers highlighted on 'Maloca Vol.1', the label’s first compilation, confabs a terrestrial and borderless percussive sound that has been bubbling in clubs and Le Motel’s orbit.

Opening the compilation is esteemed Peruvian duo @dengue with the spectral synths and organic sounding foundations of 'Minerals'.

We can hardly believe it ourselves, but our little label just turned fifteen. In human terms it would mean we´re teenagers in full swing, in dance music terms it´s like we´re silver agers. In the fast paced world of dance we´ve seen a lot of trends come and go. We´ve also seen artist careers rising quickly to the top and then suddenly crumbling. And despite the profound changes in the musical landscape, we´re still here and people still play our music. One of the reasons is that we stuck to our original aim: To release exciting music from around the world. And the interest in local music styles from outside the Anglo-Saxon cultural sphere has risen.

Since Man 01, the "Não Wave - Brazilian Post Punk 1979-1988" compilation, we were especially keen on blending local roots with the global in music, which has become a mega trend in pop and dance music. When we started the label in 2005 the internet was still a privilige of the Northern hemisphere and people were still buying vinyls and CDs.

Since we can´t throw a big celebration for our anniversary due to pandemic restrictions, we decided to put together a compilation with remixes of fifteen tracks from our catalogue. We asked young and upcoming remixers that grew up with the Man Recordings sound over all these years, to put their hand onto selected tracks and rework them 2020 style. 

The line up is great and the remixes even greater. The "15 Years Of Man Recordings" compilation features reworks by Ckrono, Lorenzo BITW, 2Pekes, Rolv.K, Kensaye, KG, Don Low, Bianca Oblivion and So Vital amongst others. There´s some super fresh takes on our former releases, and some solid club compatible bangers. They all resonate that Man Recordings is here to stay!

Grito Socorro

My first drum was a blue empty water basin that was nearly as big as me. Til this very day I don’t know how I ended up with it at 4 years old but it was destined to be banged on for hours in the bathroom as my mums goes sick at me from the outside. No matter how much noise I made after a while she still let me play. I joined the Bermuda Gombeys around the same time which taught me sonic language, soundscapes, pace/tempo and distinct rhythms native to its homeland. 500 year old dance moves and performance fighting between each Gombey, 7person drum orchestras, high pitched whistles, polyrhythmic riffs and intoxicating claps of rims and sticks. 

'Gombey' comes from an African word meaning 'rhythm. The infectious beat is provided by various percussion instruments, including a snare drum and goatskin bass drum which creates a unique type of percussive singing. On the first track Drum Core the loose and high sounds of a fife adds unexpected melodies as the hard hitting note flurries around you. Aye Gombey! provides a sonic escape to Bermuda's dancehall and reggae culture - chopped and slowed tempos using ship horns, snares and ethnic drums fused with whips and whistles of Gombey Dancing. Enchufada's Rastronaut flips Drum Core with a percussive head-bopping energy layering his unique imprint from the underbelly of Lisboa's electrifying music scene.

Here’s my tribute to the heritage and music which shaped me

After +10 years of being a DJ collective and organisation, it was time to move to the next level and start releasing artists and music that we love. The goal of Rebel Up Records is to be a platform for artists from everywhere, native or diaspora. A big focus on contemporary ‘global’ traditional and electronic music to give various movements a voice that doesn't fit the 'world music' box. Sounds from the global underground is our motto! So far, we have releases from Ghana, Mexico/Brussels, Tunisia/Denmark and Iraq/Brussels, Morocco/Brussels, Portugal, Angola, the Arab diaspora, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and much more. Keep the fire burning!
