MIAMI, 2 Nov
Oliver Gil, Claudia León 'Loco Morocco' on REDOLENT
The note REDOLENT put out with 'Loco Morocco' says, "This track transcends rhythmic and cultural boundaries, delivering a dynamic blend of Afro-Cuban percussion, the melodic depth of Latin instrumentation, and the raw energy of tribal chants, all seamlessly woven into a powerful and evocative musical experience." The DJ CHUS Remix, filed as Afro House, arrived on the label in July, and Sabo placed it ninth of 20 in his "I'm not at ADE Chart" on 26 October, a field where Zuni and Thomas Garcia's 'Pulso Eterno', on Make The Girls Dance Records, sat 13th.
REDOLENT's catalogue also includes Sabo's 'Afro Chooz'. The remix is led by percussion, with an even drum pattern running throughout. It is a loud record with some give under its peaks, and the highs sit forward, a mix that keeps the energy present without ever tipping into harshness. Ninth of 20 in a chart this size is a solid mid-pack finish for a remix built on texture rather than one obvious hook.
