ZZK Records Presents 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes'. 

There’s no denying the power of the drum. It’s primal, it cuts across borders and most importantly, it makes you want to move.

Ghetto Kumbé don’t just understand that—they celebrate it, and it’s why the tambor was at the heart of the Bogotá-based trio’s 2020 self-titled debut album. Rooted in mysticism and the Afro-Caribbean rhythms they’d grown up with all their lives, the critically acclaimed LP thrillingly updated the traditional Latin template, folding in elements of modern hip-hop, house and bass music while also delivering a transportive Afro-futurist vision.

On Clubbing Remixes, that vision has been further amplified, as Ghetto Kumbé—who were already one of Colombia’s most prominent alternative acts—have now gone fully global; enlisting an all-star roster of artists from four different continents, they’ve put together a fresh version of their debut album that’s been specifically geared to the world’s diverse slate of dancefloors. 

As the title implies, the new LP is meant for the club, which is why Ghetto Kumbé have turned to Latin music heavyweights like Trooko—a multiple Grammy winner whose resume includes work with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Residente—and Monte (a.k.a. Bomba Estéreo founder Simón Mejía), along with top-shelf DJs like Nickodemus and Uproot Andy, two NYC artists who’ve spent decades championing Afro-Latin rhythms. True to the LP’s global spirit, the record also includes reworks from batida maestro DJ Firmeza, fellow Afro-Portuguese outfit Studio Bros and Parisian house groovers Les Enfants Sauvages, plus genre-blurring remixes from sonically adventurous Colombians Montoya (himself another ZZK artist) and Cero39.

Even the artwork on Clubbing Remixes is a remix, as Ghetto Kumbé have tapped Uganda’s Denzel Muhumuza to transform the cover of their debut album into a new, explicitly Afro-futuristic illustration. Depicting a strong Black face and glowing neon fauna beneath a sparkling moonlit sky, the fantastical image speaks to both the ritual magic and Afro-indebted heritage of Ghetto Kumbé’s music, and thanks to Clubbing Remixes, the group’s passionate, drum-fueled sounds will soon be blasting out of sound systems around the globe.

'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes' will be released on all digital platforms on November 9th 2022, with a double vinyl release to follow on March 31st, 2023.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s ‘Intro (Ghetto Kumbé Remix)’, the sixth single off the upcoming remix album 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes', out on all digital platforms November 9th, 2022. 

The lone rework provided by Ghetto Kumbé themselves, this version of ‘Intro’ was actually put together by Edgardo Garces aka Guajiro, the group’s singer and producer. Inspired by their live shows and taking cues from the soulful stylings of South African DJ/producer Black Coffee, the remix fortifies the original’s otherworldly warble with more drums and a slinky house groove.

'Intro (Ghetto Kumbé Remix)' will be released on August 20th, 2022.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s ‘Sola (Les Enfants Sauvages Remix)’, the fifth single off the upcoming remix album 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes', out on all digital platforms November 9th, 2022. 

Easily the most straightforward house number on the album, it comes courtesy of Parisian duo Manu Sauvage (a.k.a. Dubwizer) and Philippe Mineur, who go by the name of Les Enfants Sauvages and worship at the altar of French house legend Laurent Garnier. Traces of Ghetto Kumbé’s Latin rhythms still populate the track, but the song’s bubbling bassline wouldn’t be out of place on a terrace in Ibiza.

'Sola (Les Enfants Sauvages Remix)' will be released on July 20th, 2022.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s ‘Vamo a Dale Duro (Uproot Andy Remix)’, the seventh single off the upcoming remix album 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes', out on all digital platforms November 9th, 2022. 

With Uproot Andy — a native Canadian and longtime New Yorker who’s one of North America’s most trusted purveyors of global bass—at the helm, 'Vamo a Dale Duro' takes on a distinctly African feel, its airy shuffle leaving plenty of room for the song’s baritone raps and mystic woodwinds to take flight.

‘Vamo a Dale Duro (Uproot Andy Remix)’ will be released on on August 31st, 2022.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s ‘Djabe (Monte Remix)’, the 8th single off the upcoming remix album 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes', out on all digital platforms November 9th, 2022. 

As the founder of Bomba Estéreo, Simón Mejía has spent more than 15 years expanding the boundaries of Latin pop music, and Monte is his more introspective solo moniker, a project devoted to the natural sounds of his native Colombia. His fuzzy rework of ‘Djabe’ isn’t technically an ambient track—there’s still some bump in its low end—but there’s a lot of serenity (and birdsong) in the song’s quietly triumphant trajectory.  

‘Djabe (Monte Remix)’ will be released on on September 21st, 2022.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s "Pila Pila (Trooko Remix)", the fourth single off the upcoming remix album "Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes" out on all digital platforms November 9th 2022. 

A native Honduran who’s been based in Los Angeles for more than a decade, Trooko is one of "Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes"’ most celebrated contributors, and the multiple Grammy winner has also delivered one of the LP’s most riotously fun tracks. His version of “Pila Pila” joyously connects the dots between Latin music past, present, and future, infusing “Pila Pila” with razor-sharp trap drums and a feverishly walking bass line that sounds like something from an old Fania record, ultimately landing on something that both your abuela and your TikTok-obsessed little cousin can get down to.

"Pila Pila (Trooko Remix)" will be released on June 29th, 2022.

ZZK Records Presents Ghetto Kumbé’s ‘Cara a Cara (DJ Firmeza Remix)’, the 9th single off the upcoming remix album 'Ghetto Kumbé Clubbing Remixes', out on all digital platforms November 9th, 2022. 

Part of Lisbon’s white-hot batida scene, DJ Firmeza is well versed in the art of reshaping frantic African rhythms for European dancefloors, and after meeting Ghetto Kumbé during an artist residency in Mexico City, he agreed to give ‘Cara a Cara’ the same treatment. His remix turbo-charges the psychedelic original, adding in a raft of energetically thwacking drums and an uniquely off-kilter rhythm that’s sure to get any dancefloor moving.

‘Cara a Cara (DJ Firmeza Remix)’ will be released on on October 12th, 2022.

Cumbia Para Elizabeth (OctubrxLibrv Remix)

Order : https://earthlymeasures.bandcamp.com/album/crudo-ep

Having released the popular ‘Voces’ on Earthly Tapes 03, DJ Raff is back on Earthly Measures for his first full EP on the label – expect Afro - Latin Tropical rhythms with a sprinkle of Acid throughout!

"Aquí Voy" is a collage of samples made up to create a tropical atmosphere with a constant bed of wiggly sub-basses that serve as the basis for the dissonant melodies of the Berimbau, the main instrumental within the track.

The title track 'Crudo' is a cross between Acid House and Percussive Afro-Latin rhythms. The track begins slowly with a rain of chants and percussions that give way to a storm of heavy kicks and a constant distorted 303, rounded off by soft Marimba melodies. Peak dance-floor vibes.

The Lo-fi Nostalgia Por Un Sample puts together samples of old scratch records whilst sampling vinyl that Raff used in the early 2000s to DJ in Hip Hop and Funk bands.
