Expendable Youth- Heyo! by Mad Decent

Posted on 02 December 2011 by Caballo


Mad Decent, new sub label is called Jeffree, It’s what Mad Decent was originally made for new artists thinking outside of the box.
There is ONE BIG DIFFERENCE.. Jeffree’s releases are FREE..

Also I would like to add this is a sub label which role is to showcase innovative sounds from some of the world’s best up-and-coming producers.
Although we all know that the fact that Mad Decent releases “innovative sounds” perhaps will create some buzz around, specially in some circles who already know or knew about that specific genre.
( that is a point i want you to join me after the music, on this post’s bottom part)

In fact, Expendable Youth’s Heyo! has been a secret weapon among Mad Decent DJ’s for a few months now.
Each track is Available for Free Download
Expendable Youth – Heyo! by Mad Decent
3Ball huarachero and prehispanico comes stronger in 2012.. although in the mean time YOU need to grab my “hermano” Javier Estrada epic version
Expendable Youth – Heyo! (Javier Estrada Remix) by Mad Decent
Shaun D drops this Basstastic tune
Expendable Youth – Heyo! (Shaun D Remix) by Mad Decent
Download via Hulkshare here:

So back to the Point I was saying..
The fact the Mad Decent drops a FREE releases sub label can generate all sort of feelings indeed..
Some people tend to think that not only Mad Decent but also Diplo have become known for taking an “unknown” culture and exposing it to the world. Although we have to point that he is not the only one who has probably “discovered,” re-framed, and sold it audiences in another part of the world.

We have many examples like cumbia label ZZK, Baile funk Man recordings, Tropical/ Alternative/Rock Nacional Records,
World Music Putumayo and Cumbancha, African Awkwaaba and Faluma among HUNDREDS of independent labels who mainly are run by a “foreign” who fell in love with a specific culture(s) and the music.. AND to want their music to reach larger audiences and the fact they facilitated the exposure for many genres is something I personally always be thankful.

The fact Capitalism is vital part of the music industry makes this sub label much more outstanding.

We will hope to drop each Jeffree’s release asap!!

Aquasky – BassDevil – Mixtape

Posted on 19 November 2011 by Caballo


I have never been a great fan of posting mixtapes!
The reason is that I usually hear every single track I post..from beginning to end.. which is time consuming when we talk about mixtape posts.

Aquasky is easily one of the few pioneers from the breakbeat/drum n bass era who keep moving towards new bass directions without losing their roots, massive sound
I hadn’t had the chance to post this mixtape, which right now goes for almost 2000 downloads!!

ZZK- Kickstarter’s help

Posted on 14 November 2011 by Caballo

ZZK artists have been fortunate to be recognized as pioneers of mixing digital music with traditional South American rhythms; pushing stereotypes, expanding minds, and creating a movement to change Argentine collective consciousness.

They Have done a doumentary, and now the final steps need to be done, and for that they need YOUR help..
and for helping them, you can get AMAZING prizes…
TAKE A DEEP LOOK right here

The ZZK sound brings traditional and indigenous sounds to life. As opposed to seeing ancient rhythms and recordings as more artifacts in a museum, ZZK artists are appropriating traditions to our generation present in the 21st century. Trailblazing with their innovative sounds abroad, and crossing paths with musicians all over the world that are creating similar collectives in their own countries, ZZK TV hopes to explore this worldwide phenomenon by engaging viewers in an exclusive behind the scenes view into the future of the music industry, as it’s being created.

You are going to help, not only these artists, but also the whole scene, because ZZK represent the gaucho side of south american folklore, which is so rich and creative that needs to be shared outside our continent.

Latino Resiste present 3BALL !! FREE ALBUM !!

Posted on 01 November 2011 by Caballo

Latino Resiste Presents 3ball Prehispanico FREE DOWNLOAD

Alternative link
as well for FREE DOWNLOAD

Early this year TropicalBass, Mad Decent and Latino Resiste among many more websites released a Free compilation made by Mexican Underground leading blog Bootlegumachine n LR, called AZTLAN.

That release dropped some of the most innovative sounds from Mexico, including 2 songs from 3ball biggest names: Erick Rincon and Sheeqo Beat; who are part of 3ball MTY with their partner in crime DJ Otto.

Now, 3ball huarachero, has certainly broken the underground barrier, and slowly is getting attention from Mainstream Media in Mexico, and even though their music is highly appreciated, it is very polarized as it is still considered very ghetto.. Specially because the pointy boots (botas picudas).

A new generation of producers are following the path created by Dj Mouse, Ric Reyna, Alan Rosales, and later on Erick, Sheeqo and Otto aka 3BALL MTY.

This is an effort; trying to show and unveil some of these names for a “non-mexican underground” scene, some people who have been on the game since it started and for some reason are still “unknown”, even for Mexican public.

Dj Javier Estrada – Mitotiani Youaltika

or
Nuestra Raiz – Clap Pina Tribal Prehispanico

Latino Resiste, releases a FREE COMPILATION called 3BALL PREHISPANICO, in where you will find some of the whole variety of 3ball huarachero AND prehispanic.
Free Download
or alternative link as well

FREE DOWNLOAD

Now.. Like what happened with the earliest stage of reaggetton or Moombahton; Tribal used to have a very repetitive pattern, usually a 4/4 and beats btw 120 and 130 bpm..

Dj Mouse, Rosales, 3TS, Reyna are the pionners of that sound.

Until the new kings arrived….Erick, and Javier Estrada worked together in 2006, but then Sheeqo Beat came into the scene and started working with Erick on what we now know 3ball MTY.

Obviously having their own background and influences which altered and polarized the tribal scene, not only in MX but also it made it more accessible for global bass ears, although at the same time, it sent a HUGE portion of tribal even more underground.

This new Blood of the underground is here for FREE DOWNLOAD

If you want to know more about 3ball, and its social impact, you can watch this short documentary

and read this Interview I made to Erick Rincon and Sheeqo Beat

How did you guys started in tribal?

Erick Rincon: Before 3ball gurchero, Sheeqo Beat and I produced electro-house and latin-House.

Do you guys think you have a certain “style” different than the other 3ball Dj’s?

Erick: Well. I can not say we have a signature, as we all have very different styles, 3ball MTY is a crew, not just 3 dj’s, and Otto, Sheeqo, and Erick have different styles

Sheeqo loves Latin stuff, specially latin house.

Otto loves Dutch-house and Minimal house.

I am more of an Electro and cumbianchero (cumbia lover).

How did you started doing 3ball?

Erick: Sheeqo and I, were not doing so well with electro-house, besides it was impossible not to dig 3ball..every time we went to some friend’s party 3ball was there!!

So when we arrived home we came with tons of 3ball ideas, we did keep the synth and loops, just that we wanted to have a different base, more cumbiambera, heavier basslines, tropical congas, guarachas and shakers!!!

So 3ball obviously has a different perception from the public in Europe, North America and Mexico.

This song is included in AZTLAN

Ghetto Funk Baby (Sheeqo Beat VS High Rankin Mix) – Rico Tubbs by Sheeqo Beat

and it has a Sheeqo Beat vibe on it..

So I asked Sergio (Sheeqo) his personal views about 3ball

What is the Mexican perception about tribal guarachero?

Sheeqo Beat: Tribal guarachero here in my town, is “suited” by certain people, it is for lower class people or kids, although most of the people still find it disgusting!

However, people are different everywhere,European Public is more open, but even now here in Mexico we have played in many places that never played huarachero and people who were there loved 3BALL ! and they were all adults!!

One of the things I like most is that we have always handled the 3ball for people who are underage, or very young, they are between 12 to 16 years old, but this genre is slowly getting more respected from older crowds and that’s what excites me!, I think gradually Guarachero and 3ball will be more enjoyable for people who think that it is a genre that should have never existed.

About the Music from this LR presents 3BALL PREHISPANICO compilation:

Dj Tamalero, Tetris, Alan Pina,Ezekiel, Lao, Dj Rooy, among others will show this new blood and second generation of 3ball who are following Rincon’s and MTYsteps.

Even Den5hion is doing a Dj Otto 3ball/dubstep approach!!

Cumbia No 4 – Cumbia Zenaida – Chico Ye

“After working with genres like 3-ball guarachero and reggaeton, the South Texas artist, Chico Ye, proves his production versatility with the release of his new album “El Sonido Matador” (<— Free Download)  The delayed grooves and historically aware beats of Chico Ye’s tracks match the 100+ degree weather that’s cooking the Rio Grande Valley. Imagine yourself sipping on a Pacifico in a little cantina that opens onto the street. The night’s hot, you’re wiping the sweat off your brow, and in the corner of the room the dj’s playing something like “El pescador de mi tierra.” Nothing’s out of the ordinary, you think, until he starts mixing in the next track. The drums punch harder, goythe beat’s funkier, and the accordion sounds like it’s still playing from the previous song. Then, suddenly, you hear a Lil’ John sample. The crowd, old and young, gets up to dance. You’ve never heard a cumbia so organic and yet so perfectly made for the contemporary club. Walking up to the dj, you ask, “Who’s this?” And he responds, “It’s Chico Ye.” - Christopher Perez
