PS that Principe compilation linked above is really good -- great summary of that label sound, and very consistent across the tracks. If you like DJ Marfox, Nigga Fox et al, it's a must

sorry, i know i'm guilty of just dropping links.

whiney, if you like noisy dancehall, this B.YHZZ ep on Infinite Machine is pretty serious:

see also the same dude as DJ Camgirl, in more of a breakbeat/jungle style (similar to Machine Girl)

Jlin going all in on the 12/8 feel, ends up feeling very West African (also very pointillist, all those different little one-shot samples): https://www.residentadvisor.net/tracks/835461

DJ Chap: https://discospeligrosa.bandcamp.com/album/drum-pakk-1
Teklife crew member does something like favela meets footwork. Mostly just drum tracks, but short lengths so you can groove to them and move on

Machine Girl: https://machinegirl.bandcamp.com/album/machine-girl-vs-machine-girl
EP from late last year. Not straight footwork by a any means, lots of jungle and breakbeat in there too. But I like artists that f with the formula

Dominique, Monday, 23 January 2017 22:07 (seven years ago) link

not to keep promoting but chance the rapper / lil yachty's dj oreo is actually from chicago's west side & in this interview he talks about djing / throwing the war zone footwork battles/parties, being mentored by tek life, the wala cam underground etc:

I've been sleeping on this whole gqom thing but I've really been enjoying Dominowe's EP on Gqom Oh! Darkside UK funky type vibes...

paolo, Friday, 7 April 2017 08:24 (seven years ago) link

Is anyone releasing gqom apart from Gqom Oh! I'm going to do some digging into their other releases (even though there's only about three) but I'm not sure where to go from there

nargiz was on that Club Chai comp (that i think is gonna go down as hugely influential on the year in club music) with that Rihanna remix but here's an also great mix she just did for what looks like a new club night/concert series in Atlanta

do we have like a separate thread or anything for diasporic club music? like for naafi and non and ghe20g0th1k versus the scene-based stuff like gqom and shangaan?
