Panther Panther- Xochiquetzal Baila

Posted On By Caballo


For the past years our South American ethnic, indie electronic music has been led by the likes of ZZK, Ana Tijoux, Dengue Dengue Dengue and such. That is why we are very excited to add an impressive release to that category.

Xochiquetzal Baila is a collection of four playful tracks that bring together some of that Mexican Kitsch into your ears through deep bass, tight electronic percussion and trippy melodies, ready for dancefloors in outer space and beyond! Mixing a bit of everything between 80s electro, funk, soukous, grunge and cumbia, this is a journey into cosmic fusion and otherworldliness for hot summer nights and rainy days alike. Hug each other tight as you watch the volcano lovers dance!

Xochiquetzal Baila and Perdidos are transatlantic collaborations respectively with Buenos Aires producer Don Plok, from the formidable Guateque crew in Zona Sur, and Aranemi, from Latin Bass Records Mexico in Aguascalientes. Both tracks are filled with magic, humour and alien tech wizardry.

The Black Hole Sun interpretation is made in memory of all those sulky teenage afternoons spent living with the voice of Chris Cornell, may he rest in tropical heaven. All made with global love, for you!
