Americas Volume 2, Compilation by Saca La Mois DJ!!

Where Americas Vol. 1 focused on the IDM-Cumbia experimentation coming out of Argentina, my second Americas Volume compilation is dominated by a wealth of new Mexican music, especially from the prolific Tijuana scene.  Clorofila (who actually lives in Pasadena, California) from the influential Nortec Collective is represented with two remixes, and also from Tijuana are experimental folk-pop producers Los Macuanos and Maria y Jose: two projects who are spearheading a new direction in indy meets electronica meets folk meets club imbued with a distinctive Mexican sense of humour and irony.  Other parts of Mexico are represented by a promising debut release from Melbourne-based Mexico City-inspired folk-dub project Nahuatl Sound System, two songs from Monterrey’s Sr. Amable and finally Los Amparito and Pepepe, both from Guadalajara.

Peru is represented this time by several remixes of songs by the Paris-based Radiokijada, produced by Rodolfo Munoz and Christoph H. Mueller of Gotan Project.  I’m especially hyped to include another unreleased track by Cero 39 (for me personally the most exciting contemporary Colombian producer).

Whilst “Americas” may appear to be a series of compilations selected for geographical criteria, far beyond there having to be an Americas connection, the choice of songs is purely aesthetic.  In that way I present a specific set of my personal tastes in digging/listening, but potentially also capture a particular moment in the history of the most exciting music crossing the borders of folk, electronica and pop…
