The Bolivian Bass

by Caballo, May 24, 2013 at 03:00 AM

 

Many of you know about Che Guevara. Thanks to the movies & Books, people also know about his road trip through South America to see with his own eyes the way the continent behaves in reality.

A lesser known story was his Bolivian fight; which ultimately ended with Che’s death. And somehow, it may be the only reference people have about Bolivia.

Very few blogs from the Latino continent, and even less Global Bass/EDM/nu-world music outside the Spanish language have covered the actual underground scene of Bolivia.

We decided to explore further, to go deeper, and actually unveil a brand new and exclusive Release from the Bolivian Bass Scene.

In order to do that, we had to set up again a project called: Ruta Panamericana del sonido.
The trip which started a-la Che Guevara, is not political oriented, but it does have a very political intention: trying to unveil the Urban Culture and Music from each country “La Panamericana” crosses by.

Having in Mind that Bolivian Music is perhaps one of the lesser known scenes from South America, we needed to make a strong alliance with Oi Mas Bass, who are perhaps the strongest Bass Collective from La Paz.
If Che Guevara died in Bolivia, these rebels are trying to make sure Bolivia doesn’t get behind in the collective mind of the Empire in terms of sounds.

The final result is exactly what the Bolivian Bass scene sounds like. A perfect blend between Andean roots, and Modern Bass. From Digital Cumbia, to Moombahton, to Bashment, or Cumbiathon; Bass en la Alturas is just the perfect example of the modern music played in the under Bolivian Scenes.

Juyen Sebulba – Superjam (JEFF050)

by Mad Decent, May 23, 2013 at 03:24 AM

Reigning from Dallas, TX, the young chief bangarang genius Juyen Sebulba has been sending us tunes for a while now. They’ve all blown out our speakers but when he sent through “Superjam” we all turned stiff and passed out on the floor like those fainting goats on youtube. It’s seen support from Laidback Luke, GTA, Deorro and Moska so far because It’s one of those songs that whether you’ve heard it before or not you know it a hit. Whether you’re at the club or just hearing it on laptop speakers, its makes you move. Every element is perfectly placed, the 3ball guira percussion, the bubbly lead line, the vocal stabs, wow its a tuuuuuuune.

by Mad Decent, May 21, 2013 at 01:31 PM

Cadenza & Nasher – Gyal Town is available everywhere digitally!

Purchase on iTunes
Purchase on Beatport

“Gyal Town” is a special collab from Londoners, Cadenza, and Nasher. Cadenza has a long history with bass music, so it’s no surprise to see such a sophisticated style of blended sounds and rhythms from him. Nasher, a natural performer who placed 2nd in a UK DJ competition at the age of only 14 and, since the age of 17, is now playing on KISS100, energizes “Gyal Town” through raw talent. From the future-juke toms that start off the track to the chopped “Amen Break” and eerie vocals, “Gyal Town” is a colorful collage of sounds that will murder forward-thinking dance floors around planet Earth.
