DOWNLOAD:<\/strong> VILLA DIAMANTE & MARIANA BARAJ unknown<\/a>
\nmore argentian excellence, this time from the blackside inc<\/a> label, home to “strictly black music” and artists such as daleduro, loder, lucas luisao and arkd. villa diamante<\/strong>, the alias for producer diego balacio<\/strong>, has been dj-ing for the last three years and has already firmly established himself for this blend of hip hop, techno and his own mashups. his web site<\/a> features a sweet range of blends that pair many of his fellow countrymen with international faces – for example, el remolon<\/strong> (see yesterday’s post) gets mashed with beyonce and jay z, gustavo cerati<\/strong> meets de la soul, ratatat vs alfonso el pintor<\/strong> and so forth.
\nthe real revelation however is diamante’s track from the label compilation ‘blackside allstars vol.1’ – six tracks that mix drum’n’bass, dubstep, screwed ragga (courtesy of an oro11<\/a> remix) and diamante’s piece, simply titled ‘unknown’. this beautiful track (also a mash as far as i can tell) takes its cue direct from a dubstep \/ ragga tangent and then drops a vocal that sounds as is if it’s been ripped from the middle of the kalahari desert. the singer is mariana baraj<\/strong>, an argentinian vocalist and percussionist who works in an area she deems as ‘folklorica’ – variations on traditional, regional folk songs; which once again comes to the fore in this track.
\nyou can also find the track and sixteen more on villa diamante’s new free-to-download album, ‘bailando se entiende la gente’. the formula is simple – the sources are part-american, part-argentinean, so whilst some of them appear familiar to a broader global audience, many will be falling on fresh ears. this combination works like a charm, especially on a track such as this one, blending producer\u00a0daleduro<\/a>\u00a0(who also provides additional production across the release) with fellow argentinean mc, princesa; adding a healthy dash of missy’s ‘work it’ for extra spice:
