new tune ! a remix of speed caravan's 'daddy lolo' on the real world label.
the famous 'pitan pitan' beat from santa marta mashed up with a wicked oud melody from speed caravan.
our new tune "Justicia'' appears on "Abre Sierra'' - a compilation done by the foundation Seykiwia to raise funds for and draw attention to the Sierra Nevada on the caribbean coast of Colombia, a unique ecosystem that is home to various indigenous groups. The area is under threat from various fronts, the paramilitaries, the guerillas, the military who are all fighting in Colombia's long running civil war, and for control of lucrative drug growing areas, and now there is a proposal from the government to build a dam on sacred land. The indigenous peoples call this region the 'heart of the world'...and on this compilation we are all trying to draw attention to its delicate situation.
The Sidestepper story began with the sui generis singles "Maine" and "Logozo" (Palm's Phat Global ..1) - mighty 12-inches that brought Latin fire to the dancehall - and continued with the South American vs. London dance floor clash found on More Grip and 3 a.m. (in beats we trust).
Richard Blair was a rising producer in the U.K., working with Peter Gabriel's Real World sound factory and a host of international stars when he took a fateful detour to Bogota, Colombia, back in 1992. Thinking he would spend a few months, Blair remained in Colombia for three years, transformed the local music scene, and then returned to the U.K. under the nom-du-club Sidestepper and did the same to London's percolating drum 'n' bass scene.
More Grip, 3 A.M. (In Beats We Trust), other albums are 21st century salsa, drum n bass direct from the developing world. Imagine the heat of Latin club shot through with endorphin rush of junglist clatter or the boom of a drum 'n' bass session deepened with tropical percussion and horns. Forget what you heard, Sidestepper is the real Latin boom!!!
Featuring some of Colombias most lethal singers and players like Chocquibtown vocalist Goyo and Carlos Vives songwriter/Bloque vocalist Ivan Benavides, Sidestepper does for Latin music what Bristol prophets Massive Attack and Roni Size did for R&B, jungle, and hip-hop.
Last year's album la buena vibra soundsystem was a compilation of rare dubplates, 12 remixes and rarities from Richard Blair's record box, tunes never heard before on cd.
