When we spoke to French producer Douster in FADER #63, he told us he was influenced by dinosaurs and medieval times like in Braveheart, and that he had to imagine a movie-like tale when he made music. We're thinking this "Punani" track was set sometime in ancient Egypt, and we can totally see charismatic Sweat.X's Spoek Mathambo wearing some sort of loincloth and pharaoh helmet instructing his Salome harem to jiggle their booties in the pyramid foyer—he makes the word punani sound kind of hallowed, even. Douster also told us he generally takes the reggaeton drum pattern and freaks it out, which you can hear in this track's otherworldliness.
