"Que ritmo rico!" - Dutch Rhythm Combo returns with a stunning new remix EP, which features two tracks of its acclaimed "Sounds Of The Carribean" reworked by Ray Mang and Dubben.
Ray Mang, one of London's most prolific disco dub vanguards, kicks off the "Sounds Of The Carribean Remixes" with an epic reinterpretation of Dutch Rhythm Combo's "Cartagenera". In his 8 minute plus version, Ray Mang extends the track to a spiritual, deep journey, that breathes the spirit of Balearic in a 21st century shape. If clubs like Baia D’Angeli, the mothership of Cosmic Disco, would still be running today, the Ray Mang remix of "Cartagenera" would be a current peak time tune.
The dub outfit Dubben, who rose to prominence with their rework of Juca Chavez' "Take Me Back To Piaui" (which was used in a global ad for Adidas), remixed "Disco Tropical". The Dubben Mix feat. Edu K comes in their trademark original rockers style. Adding horns, a skanking disco shuffle, their remix resembles Joe Gibb's dub efforts in disco.
The 12" Vinyl also features a dub version of Dubben's remix. A radio edit and a full length instrumental version of Ray Mang’s rework is available as digital download.
12" VINYL HSCORE008 "SOUNDS OF THE CARIBBEAN REMIXES" OUT OCT 20th 2008
HSCORE007: SOUNDS OF THE CARIBBEAN
"The Sounds Of The Caribbean" EP is the 4th vinyl release by Dutch Rhyhtm Combo on Highscore Publishing. With three brand new tracks Dutch Rhythm Combo returns after the worldwide success of the "Bonaire" releases, which received excellent feedback and DJ plays by Ashley Beedle, Yam Who?, Greg Wilson, Domu, Patrick Forge, Prins Thomas amongst many others and contained remixes by super hot tickets Blackjoy, Maximilian Skiba, Al Usher and Soul Village.
The EP’s title "Sounds Of The Caribbean" was chosen as it features a variety of musical styles that include Dub, Cumbia, Reggaeton and Hispanic Music influences. The guitar in all songs is played by New York's Zeb Visini from Wonderwheel Recordings – recorded in his studio in Brooklyn on one of NY's hottest summer days.
An atmosphere of buzzing heat and tropical feeling is embodied in the opener to the EP, "Cartagenera", which is influenced by the Cartagenera, a folkloristic musical style from the Flamenco family, rooted in Southern Spain. Combined with a skanking rhythm guitar and live beats, this track is surely a summer embracing dancefloor filler.
"Disco Tropical" is a funky stomper featuring Brazilian MC legend Edu K on the microphone. Recorded in his studio in Porto Alegre, Brazil, Edu K bigs up the tropical disco flavour of Dutch Ryhthm Combo. Just imagine a secret nightclub in the tropical jungle, where beautiful girls boogie and you'll get the feeling of "Disco Tropical". On bass guitar is Mads Krabbe, bass player in the "Roots Harmonics Band" from Copenhagen, the most heavyweight Scandinavian reggae rockers.
The third song in the EP, "Tune", is a deep roots-dub track. Entirely played live, it's the dubbed out side of Dutch Rhythm Combo, reminiscing "Soulmap" by Melasse, which was the first release on Highscore Publishing.
