As you already know Scatters and I have been getting all sweaty in the studio working out the new Slap & Dash mix. It has become a monster that is owning all of my attention. Along the way in trying to make something “new” we have tried a whole bunch of songs and sounds. Some made it into the mix, others did not. Here I’m going to pay homage to some of the tracks that got thrown out along the way.

This tune rules my world at the moment. I had never heard of Venezuelian Ronny Santana before i coped this burner a few weeks ago, but then with only 7,000 plays on his myspace i dont think many out there had. Totally melting together tribal beats and chants with dutch synth styled electro it has a charm on the dance-floor like nothing else. It has worked for me in all types of sets, playing pretty much every roll a song could. Such a shame it couldnt find a place in our set.

The Costuleta tune is heavy original sounding Kuduro. Its some sort of mystery tune where no-one is really certain who created it. Word on the street is that Dj Znobia made the beat originally with early vocal versions from Vagabanda and others. Shame they aint credited on the version that blew up. Made nearly 4yrs ago it is still sounding “current” as far as Kuduro bangers go. Massive tune, kind of makes me sad that we couldn’t fit it in the mix.
