At first I wasn't too sure about this House/Kuduro track, but it has defo grown on me.
Sang in Lingala, Shelby Da Mata's Nangayete fuses Kuduro/House with congolese tongue!
Had to share this video with you guys!
This is the new video from Yasmin ft drum 'n' bass producer Shy FX and the legendary UK MC, Ms Dynamite, was shot in the Beautiful and soon to be visited by me, Cuba.
I first heard the track on BBC 1 Xtra a little while back, but never caught the name of the artist....and now I know.
Its got that old school garage and reggae infused feel to it which I really love. And The video scenery goes perfectly well alongside it.
It's starting to feel like summer now! Wheres my Caipirinha at?!
Theres something about Grammy nominated Diplo that I love love love.
He first hit the UK club scene with the replay track of Major Lazer - Pon De Floor
And I am still not over the recent Major Lazer New Years Mix he did for BBC radio1, which is available to download.
MAJOR LAZER new years eve mix for @anniemacdj BBC radio 1 by diplo
I was educated on Diplo's skills, in mixing world bass with the likes of mainstream beats by my dear friend Boo! Coco! He is pretty much diverse in the music genres that I like, hitting in the likes of Hip Hop, Soul, Reggae, Dubstep, Electro and House.
He also previously teamed up with Dillon Francis and one of my fave latin divaresas' Maluca Mala to create the track 'Que, Que' which is a mix of Reggaeton and Electrical House.
Slightly annoying but a very catch one.
The good thing about Diplo is his diversity in his style of music, catering to most, and toying with world rhythms giving it a modern electric twist.
Latin Divaresa in my eyes, I got hooked on her music, style and personality from her first speedy electronic mambo track, 'El Tigareso', introduced to me by once again... Boo! Coco!
Her music style plays with traditional Latin rhythms with electronics and hits the likes of moombathon, merengue mash-ups, Kuduro and old school deep house,
I managed to download the China Food Mixtape a little while back and loved its energetic vibe.
Heres Jungle Violento and Florescent lights, two of my favourite tracks of the mix tape...
Hope to see and hear more of Divaresa Maluca Mala in 2012
You may know Brymo- or at least his voice from Ice Prince's Oleku, one of the biggest Naija beats of '11. Now he's back with Ara (Wonders), this songs been buzzing in my ear for a little while now and the video dropped yesterday.
This is one pretty god damn good DJ, I must say.
Purely for the fact that he plays all the goodness that I love in Bass music from around the world.
He specialises in electronic house, world bass, and afro-tropical vibes such as kuduro.
I met him a little while back last summer at Bairro North in Angel, London.
Assuming the DJ will mostly likely not play tracks I'd request nor never hear in a main stream bar / club, he managed to hit the nail and then some.
He brings that tropical bass vibe that seems to be missing here in the UK and is a constant reminder for world bass lovers such a myself, that there are good DJ's just like him out there.
He has since jetted off to Brazil (talk about living the life) to grace them with his colourful vibes and I wish him the best of luck in his conquest.
Here below is his recent mixtape with full track list, Electro Dembow 3, which was exclusively released from Sao Paulo.
