so i'm trying to lock down this lounge gig and the owner wants 'world' music inspired house/lounge. so the idea is to go with dubby & latin house. only thing, neither genre are really my forte. anyone out there familiar with some good artists/comps/labels i should be checking for?thanks in advance!

    Just play all your late 70s Roy Ayers joints alternated with some of this



    And throw some Amy Winehouse in there, et voila: Balearic.

    PS: How can you live with yourself?

    lol not sure what you mean by that.. guessing it's sarcasm.

    anyhow, i actually enjoy listening to dub & latin house but have next to no knowledge about the genre.

    I'd say go look up some Masters at Work or Nuyorican Soul for the latin side of things.

    And for dubby house that doesn't suck, umm, you ever heard of the Digital Mystikz?

    Shackleton could kinda fit both dubby house and latin vibes.

    Basic Channel, Maurizio, Pole, Vainqueur --> All Dub Techno.

    Or the first Luomo album maybe?


    Sorry, not entirely sure what you're looking for.

    here's a good start.

    bastard boots Vol.1 and 2 (bastard jazz records)

    anything on candela recordings is top notch

    also anything by nickodemus is proper.

    all of which can be found at the lab.

    ez.

    Or maybe Ricardo Villalobos/Luciano ?
  • bonzaisk8bonzaisk8 946 Posts
    oh yeah, can't forget about Rob Paine and the Worship Recordings label.

    it's all good. thanks for the input (whaddup gusto??!) basically i'm sorta figuring that out as i go..

    as far as the latin side, the roy ayers suggestion was kinda on point. more chilled out stuff, heavy on the percussion and rhodes.. instros or vocal tracks would work.

    as for the dubby side, guess i'm looking for stuff that's less house and more like 4 on the floor dub, heavy basslines, and percussion. i've heard a tosca 'annanas' remix that was dope..

    keep em coming! any ideas are appreciated.

    You need the Mystikz in your life then.

    Check out their tune Anti War Dub.

    Heavy 4/4 dub feel to it.


    Look for anything by the man Mala.

    If you're NYC based you can probably pick most of this stuff up in Kims.

    yup. +MAW.

    others to check:
    Da Lata
    Troubleman
    Gerardo Frisina
    Truby Trio
    Jazzanova
    Bugz In The Attic
    Proyecto Uno - "El Tiburon" slays all
    2 in a Room - "El Traigo" only for serious sweatbox affairs
    El General w/ C+C Music Factory = all time greatest latin house, I would be willing to bet that no dj could manage to spin this song without people in the crowd dancing. Boricuas are everywhere.

    osunlade maybe?

    One of my favorites from last year (the whole album is solid- dubby and latin):

    Mayoral.mp3 by Novalima, from their album "Afro"

    German house DJ/Production duo Knee Deep have done some of the best house joints and remixes over the past few years. These are both bananas on the Latin/Brasilian tip:

    Knee Deep remix/dub version of Ray Barretto's cover of Stevie's "Pastime Paradise."

    Knee Deep vocal remix of Everything But The Girl's "Corcovado."

    for the love of god, no more experimental jetset t-shirt bites.

    Ian Pooley - Coracao Tambo (needs rmx)

    negrocan is a good recommendation. Search out aquela esquina (grant nelson rmx) and Mare Baixa (Jazztronik Remix).

    I don??t knoiw anything about latin house, but for the dubby side of things and as far as I understand what you are looking for:

    co-sign on jazzanova. there is some similar stuff on sonar kollektiv.

    Quantic, Diesler and others on tru thoughts
    maybe even a couple of GAMM/Raw Fusion tracks (red astaire, beat fanatic)
    G-Stone (peace orchestra / tosca) - more dubby than housy, but still
    Pulver records, Fluid Ounce...

    The main man is Frederic Galliano, the most talented to ever produce in this genre

    then get everything on vega records
    lost of brazilian house mixes by kenny dope too
    both guys together = maw, and yes they have tons of stuff
    osunlade
    joe claussell
    antonio ocasia is alright

    as far as dubby stuff = all things rhythm and sound

    dubby with more of a disco edge = idjut boys, they have done some more afro flavored stuff as well

    tons of things on noid as far as dubby afro disco, some old stuff on big bear too

    then there are plenty of records here and there that you would probably only have if you were dedicated to these genres, so do your homework and start digging/listening to all house music and find your own less obvious stuff by inconsistent producers that may have put out a gem here or there

    thanks for the suggestions everyone, there's plenty to keep me busy for the rest of the week... but feel free to keep 'em coming!!

    and cosine to red astaire/freddie cruger, been feeling his stuff in a major way lately.
