The final pre-release stream from Murlo’s upcoming Mipak release, Odyssey, just dropped. Check it out over at The Fader, or stream below. If you missed the first two offerings, make sure check out “Moodswung” and “Cascade” before Odyssey is released on November 6th! (Vinyl release scheduled shortly after).
Mixpak FM 090 comes from NY based producer & DJ, Copout. His productions are club weapons, edging between a percussive industrial sound and strong, dark melody. With Bardo, his latest EP for UK label Liminal Sounds, Copout shows off complex 2 minute tracks that would seem as fitting on a 2015 Blade Runner soundtrack as in the rave.
His Mixpak FM is an almost entirely instrumental journey through a dark dungeon of club music, from his forthcoming track for NY’s Escape From Nature label, to tracks from all corners of the world – gqom to grime.
This past weekend Mixpak took a trip to Mexico City to play with the NAAFI crew. To celebrate, both Jubilee and The Large made mixtapes full of vibes, and answered some questions for i-D and Noisey respectively. Check them both out below!
Jubilee – “… music to send text messages late night drunk That you will later regret to”
We’re psyched to announce the second offering from Murlo’s upcoming release, Odyssey, entitled “Cascade” — stream it below, or head over to Spin for the premiere. If you missed it, check out the lead single “Moodswung” and keep it locked for Odyssey‘s release on November 6th.
Mixpak FM 089 comes from Uruguayan producer & DJ, Lechuga Zafiro. His productions and remixes aren’t far off from the description provided by one of his tracks, ‘tambores mutantes’ – industrial and percussive, with a strong ground in latin american sounds. It’s no surprise, then, that he’s a NAAFI affiliate, with tracks on their Pirata compilation. He’s recently launched his own label out of Montevideo, named Salviatek, which seeks to release music that “reminisces candombe drumming while bringing it into a club context”.
His Mixpak FM shows the scope of his influence – from afrobeats instrumentals to demos from London producers, baile funk to kuduro.
