remix it again

The Cherry Boppers

The Cherry Boppers grow in stature each time they
release something new. It wasn't enough for them to
appear on Buenafuente's programme, they found the
world's most important DJ and producer to complete
their latest record. All Good Funk Alliance, Lack Of Afro, R de Rumba, DJ Floro, Fundación Tony Manero, Watch Tv and Makala have all taken part in this collection. Funk, rumba and electronica make up this endless party.

this is happening

Lcd Soundsystem

James Murphy has taken up the dance floor Michael
Jackson left behind him. This is Happening is full of energy; dance, punk and funk are all combined. On the same lines as the record before, and the first record's full of energy (on songs like “Tribulations”). Drunk Girls is the first single and it's suitable for throwing your beer into the air and dancing in the alcoholic rain.

vamos a comer

Makala

Makala has brought out a gastronomic piece of work. He's put together four songs with latin, ska and boogaloo on this seven inch vinyl. With Txarly Brown's attractive help, it's also become portable. “Ska con Boogaloo”, “Meneito Magistral” and “Vamos a Comer” are shaking the dance floors of Europe. It should be possible to hear these songs in all the gastronomic societies in the Basque Country.

Maison # 9

Kitsune

These compilations have become an indispensable
point of reference on the club scene. Above all, on the indie and electronica scenes. The work of this Paris based label has given us the latest songs by Jamaica, Crooners and Yelle on this 18 song collection. These and the sounds of the future and they can be heard in all Europe's coolest parties. Without wanting to be cliched, these compilations have become the main movers on the electronic dance scene.

Movements 3

askoren artean

Tramp Records is Munich DJ and producer Tobias Kirmayer's record company. In recent years he's recovered vintage jazz, funk and soul from the 60's
and 70's, and this is why he's given us Movements
and other such initiatives. It's a special record; and songs like Ernesto Cardenal's “Grito Pidiendo” deserve a special place on all collection shelves.

Delorean

When Delorean brought out their first record, I organized a concert for them at Oñati. Nobody came. There were a handful of us there enjoying the music and dancing. How things have changed! They're now highly successful in the States, where they sell out their concerts in every city, so it's going to be hard to see them here again. The new songs are bright, danceable pop.
