XVI Records are excited to present their latest signing, Cleto Marez. South London born and raised, Cleto’s productions exist in a world of their own. His sound is the consequence of heavy bassline sound systems, clipping EQs, Coxsone sound clash culture, and the roots of Jamaican multi-genre sonics. His beats swing between distressed melodies, looming undertones, commentary and heavy hitting samples tiered with irregular drums loops. Having collaborated with the likes of Goya Gumbani, MIKE, King Carter and Nigz TG - Cleto’s ability to craft multilayered, efficacious beats has gained him underground support in all the right places.

As new single ‘Get That Money Sis’ swirls into earshot - an eerie vocal loop rings out through the ether, swiftly joined by hypnotic strains and a red-light inducing bassline. With the accompanying music video animated by Formidable Season and based on real life events, we follow a surreal episode of New York City’s unmatched nightlife via the streets of Brooklyn, and narrated by characters Octo & Gee (Gii).

With a slew of releases set for 2021, Cleto further demonstrates his unbeatable ear for weaving advanced melodies and subterranean low-end frequencies into complex soundscapes, with enough mystic power to set off the party.

Music,
centered on dance but I made the circle very,
very wide, from everywhere, for everyone.
Enjoy.

My linux won't boot so I'm presently forced to use Windows, and because of the bug in Soundcloud's system my account is all messed up when I don't use a VPN to connect which I am unable to do now... trying to get help from my VPN provider.  Because of this, and because I started working very long days I will be less present here.  Sorry, I'm trying.

Hi,
"Tracks: 0" is wrong, it should read 40.
Ever since the closing of this account by error by SC two or three months ago, this problem has remained unfixed.  Soundcloud and their AI are apparently still working on solving this and other problems with this account, and with my other account ; )

What I wrote below was heart felt but presumptuous and pretentious.  I would have to not be stupid myself to be allowed to claim such a thing.  More importantly though, I don't believe it is correct or accurate.  These people are probably not stupid but just don't care.  Justice is a collective thing and many if not most people seem to live in bubbles.  It is perhaps economic oppression which is responsible, they just don't have the resources, the time, the energy to be concerned about what lies behond that bubble.  It used to be fine but there's this thing they call globalization which makes this increasingly impractical or impossible.

Justice and vengeance are not the same.  Apparently most people are too stupid to see the difference.  Unfortunately it is not something unique to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and not unique to group conflicts.

What happened to intelligence?  Aren't we supposed to be the "intelligent" specie.

Here's the other account, for celebrities, ... this one here is for regular folks:

I love you.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
