This was a great chat that touches on what happens when musicians from around the globe record in NYC and the beautiful outcome that comes with it. It’s the sound clash of tomorrow meets yesterday with with a psychedelic twist! Efrain drops by and breaks down the inspiration behind La Mecanica Popular! And if you are in NYC this weekend they have a big show in Central Park with Louie Vega on the decks this Saturday! Go check em out!

Big thanks to RedBull Studios in NYC!

Big up’s to homie Nati from NYC for passing this my way. We use to do a night over at Footsies about 4-5 years ago w/ Gomez and guests like Kutmah or Andres Renteria would swing through and she would always pass me the names of bands that are under the radar. I think she struck gold with this one!  I played one of their cuts on one of my KCRW shows but didnt hear much from them after. This fine gem turned up in my inbox and I am really diggin the vibes on this ! Let me know what you think! More info on the band and track can be found here.

* Note – I will def be playing this track tonight at Cana Rum Bar in DTLA!  All kinds of world sounds being played on two turntableas. Swing through and lounge it up! Info.
