Mad Decent

The Mayan calendar ended, and with rave rhythms, the Aztecs are celebrating that the world is still here. But change is taking place.  Choles Records's massive cross-border compilation prophesies a new future full of pre-hispanik wisdom and hardstyle tension. Our destiny is 3BALL. And from Mexico City to Virginia, the artists included in "El Rave Azteca" epitomize the spectrum of its sonic  capabilities.  Take Pacheko's "3ball City" for instance. The track's like a day with your Sim in Techno-titlan. Corcovado's "This Love Is Real" is what UK Funky would be if global warming were to turn London fog into Quetzal paradise. The whole comp is worth more than gold. Nahuatl vocal samples, dubby bass slurps, Ibiza-like breakdowns, and guarachero drumming come all together years before someone like Lady  Gaga or her replacement co-opt in the name of capital this pure energy. But until then, the download's free and Choles is the progenitor.
