It Takes Two To Tango
Podcast: Buraka, Appleblim, Blu & Exile
Batida de Pogo: Lil' John and Conductor of Buraka Som Sistema on the Academy couch
Here's the second podcast for this year's Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona. This time we serve you cutting edge sound of Buraka Som Sistema, talking about the Angolan riddims and their trip to the country as well as the missing links between baile funk, Baltimore club and the breakbeats underneath it. A bit under the surface is also the place, Appleblim likes to dwell the most. His labels Skull Disco and Apple Pips are slighlty dislocated from the dubstep norm and this friendly record collector likes his Moondog or Rhythm & Sound as much as the white labels from the wall in Blackmarket's basement. Below The Heavens is where you will find LA's Blu and Exile. A tag team made in the great tradition of Kool G Rap and DJ Polo, Pete Rock and the smooth C.L. or any other trustworthy joint venture that prefers the message in the music over the bottle service. They'll take you there!
