Born in the dark streets of Cairo, grown to the unforgettable forests of Santa Esmeralda, spending its teen years in Bombay and Tangier markets, mature into the deep spacey Jungle of Ghana we proudly present you a new label from the land of the pyramids: SHANGO RECORDS invites you to an unheard world music psychedelic trip: like through a colorful kaleidoscope we will melt down Indian and Pakistani Vibes, Arab-Tek and Oriental groovy vibes, Afro-Beat rhythms n' pieces, Cumbia Tropicana flavors and cosmic Ghetto-Latin vibes into forbidden sounds of frenzied electronic dancefloor rituals. Outside traditional paths these driving grooves and polyphonic structures take the adventure seeking dancer to Dionysian highs and places never been before.

In one of my galactic journeys I was sitting quietly enjoying a delicious cocktail in a mysterious bar called “Monsoon Breeze” deep in the inland of Centaurus A. Right behind me a feeble federal and a rather intrepid Space cadet were arguing and I was feeling really insecure. “Earth is more beautiful, you stupid cow!” federal shouts while threateningly pointing his finger to cadet’s face, “It’s got life and colors like icy white, like the deep blue of the Ocean and the grey of soil. Its own color is like a song inside the black depth of Space. In my dreams this black has a velvet quality, it’s not dark, it’s something different”.  “Naaahhh” cadet disagreed, “The Moon is better! It’s got the beauty of the desert as it stands unbeaten, unbroken, silent and silver, it’s so beautiful…….like wonderful emptiness. And have in mind that is always hiding the one of its two faces”. Naddhir is telling stories about Moon and beauty. This is his first offering for Shango Records. These three tracks can put some color in your dreams. SEVN (CA), Alehho and Purpura coming from another space and another galaxy.

Otorongo is the Quechua word for Jaguar, Curinahuel is the same in Mapudungu.

Otorongo is a music selector originally from Chile, currently based in Meanjin (Brisbane). His sets are meticulously curated to take audiences on a journey. Some times it might be a pleasant walk through mountain rainforest, tropical floodplains, or wherever your imagination feels the most comfortable. Other times a deep dive into the realm of the spirits, where light and darkness get confounded. 

Otorongo's sets are percussive, with exotic instruments and vocals, usually filled with nature samples, and always driven by ancient rhythms, carefully blended to ensure you feel free to dance. 

Expect from ethnic downtempo and folktronica to eclectic Afrofuturism, passing through deep tech.

He is co-founder and curator of ISU TAKI (@isu-taki), a collective that organises parties to promote emerging beats from Abya Yala (aka Latin America) and beyond.
