Tu Loco Loco Y Yo Tranquilo (Buscabulla Cover)

The SYSTEM mix series from Boiler Room delves deep into the diverse and innovative sounds of the global diaspora. From Dembow to Coupé-Décalé to Mahraganat, we’ll be connecting the dots between global subcultures and highlighting exceptional new talent from every corner of planet earth.

BUSCANDO: 3 concepts
1. Finding our own physical space
2. Finding our place & role in society
3. Finding ourselves

"I am a never-ending journey of discoveries within and I've seen how it directly reflects into the world and climate that we are living in today. Always searching and always finding. It feels like the end of times and I wanted that to translate through this project rhythmically and lyrically. I want you to feel the depths of emotion, angst, celebration, frustration, and determination. A claim to power in a world that has been systematically built to never allow us (non-white people) to rise. A claim to blackness overall finally coming into the light. A claim to extreme female presence to remind us that through us we will achieve our freedoms. Reminders of our darkness (internally and as a whole), as well as our spiritual connection with magic and dimensions beyond this one. Dimensions some of us have a direct line to. An ode to our ancestors who continue to leave us roadmaps and clues. The presence of nature in the beginning and ending of the mix to remind us of what we are destroying, but also the control that we will never have over mother nature. Finding home in our souls & bodies. Finding home geographically. Finding our place in the societies and communities we share, but also tearing systems down. "

la gata de la agricola tribal edit 2020

2 Sundays ago, I began texting friends this:
“If u have a moment + if it inspires u, I’m putting together a collage of field recordings that friends are sending to upload as a place + space of sonic respite. 🖤 just a voice memo recording of ambience or instruments or anything 😊.”

It was a prompt inspired by this feeling to draw sound maps adjacent to our own mind maps connecting friends, peers + family. The need for new maps is growing for me + possibly everyone. Connecting interdependencies through sounds, moments, + people.

My hope, while u listen, is that this sound map points u to places + spaces that have helped me out w keeping my mind curious, traveling + connected. These are the local places (in NYC) I cherish + love. While u listen to New Maps, visit these local businesses + support them via their digital stores:

Commend (https://www.instagram.com/commendnyc/) is a space that is owned + operated by the label that releases my music, RVNG Intl. It’s near + dear to my heart! it's such a deep + unique space.

Record City (https://www.instagram.com/recordcitybk/?hl=en) Ian + Selam have a generous spirit in sharing knowledge + it's always the right price + sweet smiles.

2 Bridges (https://www.instagram.com/2bridgesmusicarts/?hl=en) consistently brings in music + books from the far reaches of the known universe.

Deep Cuts (https://www.instagram.com/deepcutsrecordstore/) Always helping + giving so much. This store has been crucial for my survival.

Newer 2 me:

Playground Coffee ( https://www.instagram.com/playgroundcoffeeshop/?hl=en)A beautiful coffee shop + their annex always has a bright + energetic presence w books, DJ's + more.  

Mixtape ( https://www.instagram.com/the_mixtape_club/ ) Always up on the new + good coffee too.

Record Shop in Redhook (https://www.instagram.com/360recordshop/?hl=en)Best human's, best sounds + best hugs.

Milmundos bookstore (https://www.instagram.com/milmundosnyc/?hl=en)My friend Joe Ahearn ( https://withfriends.co ) told me about them. Looking at their site + seeing the books + their mission in working w their surrounding community in Bushwick focusing on + uplifting Black, Latinx, + Indigenous voices is inspiring + a dream!
