What's up with Radio Slave?

I find it interesting for an English DJ to play and produce such tribal/spanish influenced records. Sort of like Luciano or Ricardo.

Why is it any more interesting for an Englishman to do this than a German?

It's a fad, everyone's doing it independent of nationality, heritage, etc.

Neither are Ricardo or Luciano. By your reasoning, Radio Slave is only 1/2 English.

Then you do the Math for me.

Why is this weird? Just because someone is of a different heritage doesn't mean that they can't or shouldn't produce music of a different national influence.

That sound was huge this summer. La Mezcla and all that.

Although true, Radio Slave has been doing this for a bit longer than the summer

A better question would be, why is he confusing the shit out of everyone with his RA podcast(s) today

saw those today, haven't a chance to listen yet although they sound cool.

it is not that weird to have an Englishman play tribal as Steve Lawler was pretty much the best at it in the early 00's.

His productions have gone downhill since he switched over to this tribal sound, too repetative and boring...

radio slave has always made repetitive loop tracks. It has been his signature since he switched over from making weird poppy remixes. The formula is the same as always only the sounds have changed.

i'm not defending the guy either as i never really liked his stuff...his label rekkids though has the odd cracker.

Didnt feel any of his latest stuff. This new tribal hype is so boring.

Despite being both chileans, nobody knows them here. The "funny" thing is that for us their tracks - with ethnic chants and indigenous instruments - sound as if they were from a Central American country.
