malorix - belsalama

this one i was introduced to by my good friend jan henrik when he recommended me a set by american dj ripley. it was this frantic mix of everything and the kitchensink and it was quite luscious. there was a few tracks that caught my attention but one stood out.

it was this really bassheavy track sampling an arabic track. it was quite funky and i really liked how the samples was twisted around and manipulated. but the bass was the main course and was buzzing in the background and made it impossible to not move atleast one part of the body to the rhythm.

listen here (myspace)

the sample is from samira said's hit track "bil salama bil salama" and that track has a few key points which is twisted around in malorix's version. it's a production that sounds very post millennial as the arabic producers started to take notice of the both cheiron productions and shak'speare/darkchild/timbaland type bump that was the sound of the time.
