new mixtape for the festival season > Beats from the global south

Posted on May 5, 2014 by Rebel Up

hey folks,

we got a new mixtape out for the upcoming festival season;

Beats from the global south by Rebel Up! on Mixcloud

This new mixtape focusses on lesser known global electronic dance music and folk pop styles from around the world. A celebration of the creativity and originality in global music production; the result of the clash between local and global forces, between tradition and modernity. A feast of surprises, of dynamic musical undercurrents and the ever shifting, hybrid nature of cultural identities. More than a regular dj-mix, this mix is meant as a sample of the music that we want to promote and its extreme eclecticism. It’s our mission to give a loud voice to the sounds of the global underground, of the disadvantaged and despised, the proud and furious. In short, the voice and music of the people. Hopping from region to region, from style to style, you’ll hear cumbia, dembow, tecno melody, persian bass, choubi, guesba chaoui, mahragan, dancehall, pandza, shangaan disco, kologo, coupé décalé, angolan house, balani, bouyon gwada and digital funana. Also up for download, see in comment field on mixcloud.

Posted in upcoming | Tagged afrohouse, angolan house, balani show, beats, bouyon, brussels, Bruxelles, chaoui, coupe decale, cumbia, dancehall, dembow, download, electro chaabi, festival, funana, global bass, global south, guesba, gwada, kologo, mahragan, mixtape, pandza, persia, rebel up, shangaan, tecnomelody, world music
