When it rains it cold monsoons around here. As it happens, two different exclusives I’ve been scheming on for several weeks—1) a sneak preview of Poirier’s version of “Click Mi Finger” from the forthcoming Truckback remix EP and 2) a full, free download of the unreleased ZZK vol. 7 mixtape from Buenos Aires braincase King Coya—came to fruition simultaneously. In short, pretty much everything I’m running in this week’s blend is a crazy exclusive of some kind so let me just jump into the tracks.
La Yegros, “Trocitos” MP3
We’ve been waiting for the La Yegros since we saw her destroy NY Tropical a few months back… and at last, the Trocitos De Madera EP landed in our inbox. Her voice is amazing: somehow she conveys a raw urgency while sounding completely relaxed and conversational. Maybe it’s world-weariness? The lyrics are about a girl who cries out “little pieces of wood” in the jungle, so that could do it. “Trocitos”’s cumbia swang was produced by King Coya, who also co-composed the amazing-looking waterworld dance performance Fuerza Bruta, so obviously this is on another fantastical level, but on the EP it also gets treatments by dj/rupture, Matt Shadetek, El Remolon (he of ZZK blood) and Marcelo Fabian. So anyway, when are we all moving to Buenos Aires?
