Pre-order: https://basytropikalne.bandcamp.com/album/tagada-ep

First Basy Tropikalne release in 2024 is on its way as Peruvian producer DJ Latinchat debuts on the label with „Tagadá”, a carefully crafted EP featuring many hidden references. The release kicks off with ‚Zwelve’, a dark dancehall song built around a 303 bassline that also contains tumbao rhythm patterns inspired by Afro-Cuban music. A title track comes next, bringing faster tempo and a somewhat upbeat mood but with its broken beat and surprising switch to 6/8 time signature in its second part, the song is definitely not just another straightforward club music tune. Original part of the release finishes with reggaeton-based ‚Bomber’, a track profiting from DJ Latinchat’s experiments with heavily processed samples.

The EP is then enriched by three distinctive remixes. Egyptian producer 3 Phaz - who just made it to the year-end lists on Pitchfork, The Quietus and Bandcamp for his groundbreaking 2023 releases on TraTraTrax and Discrepant - adds heat to ‚Bomber’ by turning it into a true percussive feast while Argentina’s EL PLVYBXY transforms ‚Tagadá’ into a thumping dancefloor killer. Fresh off her Hyperdub-released album, it is Uruguay’s Lila Tirando a Violeta who closes the EP with an outstanding soundscape, intertwining ‚Zwelve’ with layers of her voice, nature samples and more.

Doubt - Laced Up

Encore Memories is a new series of mine, featuring tracks where I've sampled/remixed old favourites.

The first release comes in the shape of a 152bpm club remix of Drippin's 'Memory Foam'. Drippin was an incredibly inspirational artist for me in my formative production years, and I had a lot of fun working on this track!

∎ @sepbtt is a co-founder of the @rutamp3 (Germany) and @neo-tropica (Colombia) collectives. SEPBTT is characterized by a percussive and tribal sound as well as the use of polyrhythmic kicks in his productions and sets. Drawing influences from genres such as hard drum, dembow, UK bass, and techno among others, his sound frequently integrates heavy percussions with sci-fi-sounding elements combined under cinematic and somewhat ritualistic atmospheres.

[Swine Premiere] Sepbtt - El Viaje Del Chigüiro (RUTA)

La compilation a pour but de réunir pleins d'artistes bretons (et d'ailleurs) de musique électronique contre la répression envers les Free party en Bretagne.

"Dans les rues où résonnent les accords,
Sous le poids de la répression, notre art se tord.
Les notes muselées par des lois sévères,
Nos instruments saisis, nos voix en colères.
Dans l'ombre des régimes qui oppriment,
La musique devient un cri qui s'anime.
Mais même sous la menace et la peur,
Notre passion pour elle demeure.
Contre les saisies, les interdictions,
Nous danserons, encore avec passion.
Car la musique est libre, elle est vie,
Elle triomphera malgré l'ennemi.
Paroles étouffées, notre Matériel confisqué,
Nous refusons de nous laisser dompter.
Dans chaque accord, dans chaque refrain,
Nous défendrons notre art, main dans la main."
