Awesome Garage number here drawing comparisons to American House and Garage pioneers Todd Edwards and Karl Tuff Enuff Brown according to many. It’s apparently a homage to them and so cool.

It’s bloody good whatever the claims and thanks to Anna for sending it my way.

This week Coopz Mucksion & Copia Doble Systema each come with an immense tape of their own work, then we got messyfuture on a filthy garagey bassline tip.

Coopz Mucksion

Hackney native Coopz with a solid selection of his own -step tinged dubs, showing off his tectonic sound – like the devastinging UK stepper Computer Rootsman which comes in around 24 minutes – and his own vocal stylings. From about 36 minutes onwards we go somewhere real psychedelic, with brain melting dub after brain melting dub, finishing with Change on some epic Bladerunner ting.

You can buy some of his stuff on iTunes: Coopz Mucksion – Mucksion Music

Copia Doble Systema

100% Copia Doble productions, showing off their banging, anarchic cumbia, dancehall and 3ball stylings. Their 3ball take on Maga Bo – Tempos Insanos is indeed totally insanos.

Hadean

Hadean opens with a few choice juke cuts before ramping the tempo down and taking us to bassline land where we stay for most of the mix, until he ramps it back up towards the end for some sinister dubstep and crazy gabbajuke action. The start & end are the exciting bits, could have done with trimming the middle of the mix a little I think…

DexArt

I had a hankering for d&b the other day, and DexArt was on hand to scratch that itch. Not sure what this flavour of drum n bass is called – I’m totally out of touch with d&b subgenres these days – but it’s dark, technical stuff.

Our good friend from Bolivia was a part of the Generation Bass Global Mash ups project, which took place recently at Incubate in Holland.

He was collaborating & playing alongside the brilliant FLeCK and man, it was a performance to behold. We’ll bring the Live recording to their performance soon but in the meantime, soak up some free Global Bass/Transnational Dubstep/Bassline & Andestep loveliness courtesy of a free EP.

Two moombah-based tapes today from Ben Jay and Dangergirl – selected for the fact that they’re taking a slightly different perspective on the genre. But first up a super dutty UK Bass tape from Jack B Nimble. Let’s do this:

Jack B Nimble

Repeat appearance from one of my favourite DJs with this mix taking in house, UK funky, UK Garage and UK bass of all kinds. Wicked stuff – although mashup or not, I don’t think anyone needs to hear We No Speak Americano again, and he kind of crunches the mix there anyway in my opinion, but aside from that minor complaint this is Jack in top form…

Ben Jay

Another returning selectah – second appearance in as many months for Thailand’s Ben Jay with a big mix of party breaks & moombahton. I like the fact that whilst he’s joining the rest of us on the moombah bandwagon, he hasn’t just leapt headlong onto it – he’s taking more tentative, reserved steps & selecting the tunes which fit with his existing style. There’s barely any dutch bleeps here at all, and hearing these moombah tunes in the context of funk & breaks gives a different spin on them.

Canalh on the cumbia mission.

THEY KILLED JESUS !! :( But like cumbia he’ll come again and we’ll have a “nu-Jesus” to go with our nu-cumbia. So everything is allright, but still, as a cumbiatholic and since my girlfriend left me for some time (not exactly 3 days…), I feel like doing a kind of special post. You know that since UMB and Sonido del Principe have begun this column it never was only about downloading and talking nonsense in the comments like “you don’t know what’s cumbia etc, I do” or “I am the good musician one you bad Dj, etc”. It’s about love, men and wemen connections through di interweb, Zef man, and MUSIC and LOVE.

We try to focuse on cumbia, showing it on its broader acceptation from 60-70′s classics to its newer forms and it’s sometimes quite an exercice. We need tolerance, precision and aproximation. But it’s always about feelings cause that’s what’s going on with music. So although traditional cumbias generally carry joy, happyness, a day like this one, let me write nothing but let some recent producers traduce this new feelings :

6 – Chill and don’t cry !

Dany F feat Caballo- No Llores by DCB AKA Dany F

Well quick but solid round-up for this time. Let’s travel a bit and cover such countries as Colombia, Belgium, Mexico and Germany with:

1- Dany-F
2 – Max le Daron
3 – Santos
4 – Catani

1 – When I was in Medellin, Colombia, I discovered Daniel Florez aka Dany F aka DCB, a young paisa all devoted to deep house. He was living just a few streets away from my flat, I could see his block from my balcony and hear some bass coming from his home-studio sometimes, but I couldn’t get in touch with him although I wanted to interview him. Most of the young people of his age are not really into cumbia there, but listening to his “roots and cloud spell”, he begun to mix cumbia and deep house together. Well, You know UMB and Caballo told you about him regularly on the blog. He comes back again with one of his best production based on a lot of beats, a gaita and a marimba.

DCB aka Dany F – La Super Dinamita by DCB AKA Dany F

2 – Max le Daron. Rough character, good producer of another “ravecumbiaton” for the EP of the combo Hat & Hoodie. Sometimes I am very preocupied of the bad and repetitive use done of the Emayocutz cumbia loops pack. But Max, a young talented belgian producer leads the way. Give this track a chance (the first 20 seconds are kind of Dj friendly but does not really matched my expectatives), and the bass drop, synth, rythm switches will convince you. It’s FREE and it’s worth downloading it for Bass heads. Thanks Max !

Hat+Hoodie – Turn It Up (Max le Daron Remix) MASTER by Max le Daron

3 – Santos could be the President of Colombia but prefered to rule some exclusive underground dancefloors from Tijuana, Mexico. With this tracks he went deep south remixing an andean theme (yes ?) into a dreamy punchy cumbia that get you to transe.

Carnavalito-santos rmx by santos

4 – Das Kumbia: Back from LA in 2007, Catani, a german producer, was infected by the cumbias of mexico and noticed mexican cumbias had some similarities with the sound he was pushing in Berlin. So he came closer and ended up with a remix of our Driver&Driver song “Der kleine Ernst”. The original song will be on our Album “We are the World” coming on Jan. 21st on Berlin based label Staatsakt. Well, I love Germany germans, I lived there in 2007 and it’s nice to hear some good “cumbia auf deutsch”. FREE DOWNLOAD, Vielen Dank alter !

Driver&Driver – Der Kleine Ernst (Autocumbia Mix) by Catani

It’s the MIXFEST.

Gonna limit this to around 3 mixes from now on in order to give peeps the chance to listen to them all!

So what’s on offer today:

1. BANDISH PROJEKT WORLD ODDYSSEY MIX

2. DJ LAKA (EX-BLOODSHAKE) MIX

3. INDIAN DUBSTEP MIX FROM MUMBAI MAFIA

BANDISH PROJEKT

I’ve already said on numerous ocassions, that Mayur from Bandish Projekt is one of the world’s best dj’s as far as I’m concerned. Well he’s certainly one of my favourite dj’s anyway.

Here’s a mix he did for Pathaan’s BBC Asian Network show which I was privy to sometime back before it was aired and it’s another stunner.

It starts with Mayur’s brilliant remix of Tremor’s “Viajante” track and goes into lots of Bandish stuff that Mayur mashes and samples into from Indian Ghazals and folkloric sounds making it what he calls a “FOLKTRONIC” set.

“Folk” meaning “Funk” cause Mayur reckons Indian Folk sounds are the “Funk”.

It’s another journey taking you somewhere that many other mixes just cannot reach!

There’s an interview there too and so it’s really interesting to hear first hand what Mayur has to say about the mix before the beauty kicks in.

Yep, that’s Johnny.

What does he have to do with the MumBai Mafia and Indian Dubstep?

Well, nothing really, I just felt like sticking his picture up cause he’s part Indian (American Indian) and to give you girls some eye candy too :-)

This is a nice mix of Dubstep with Indian inflexions.

If you ever heard my India Calling Dubstep mix, an award winning mix..lmfao…then you’ll know some of these tracks but also there are tracks on here that you won’t know unless you closely follow the development of Indian Dubstep.

So, it’s a good introduction to Indian Dubstep!
