El Remolon
So, the mighty Slap n Dash have hit the road leaving Paz, Mat and myself to hold down the Scatterblog sound in Melbourne over the next week. Just in time for the task I’v come across a whole bunch of dope tracks so thought I’d share some of them around.
Man have I been getting my Cumbia on lately! This stuff always has me first thinking it’s just some Lo Fi isht that should actually be playing at 45 until 16 bars in when it has me bouncing round the room like a lunatic. El Remolon brings what almost sounds like a slow version of Township Funk with loads of snares and a bass line to stay in your head for days. Peep the MGMT style lead synth in the dying moments! Can’t help but think this sound will be huge in 09.
While I’m here, something more on the dancehall tip thats been good to me lately. Tucked away on the b-side of the Frikstailers debut ep it’s a blazing remix of the mighty MC Zulu. One of those tracks that moves through a bunch of different ideas without ever really blowing its load, the Frikstailers keep it real steady.
Both these releases are really solid so if you dig the tracks don’t sleep. (Unless your really tight assed about paying for music of course!)
