Andy Moor, of the Dutch anarcho-punk band The Ex, remixes the Amsterdam-based duo of Bolivian-born singer/instrumentalist Ibelisse Guardia Ferragutti and Chicago ex-pat jazz drummer Frank Rosaly's "BALADA PARA LA CORPORATOCRACIA," from their debut album, MESTIZX. "Andy has so much experience with communal music from around the globe ... but he’s also lived the life of a musical activist, which is apparent in everything he does," Ferragutti & Rosaly say. "We didn’t think 'BALADA PARA LA CORPORATOCRACIA' could get any filthier, but he proved us wrong!"

Description

The Amsterdam-based duo of Bolivian-born singer/instrumentalist Ibelisse Guardia Ferragutti and Chicago expat jazz drummer Frank Rosaly release a new remix of "BALADA PARA LA CORPORATOCRACIA"—from their critically acclaimed, International Anthem and Nonesuch Records co-released debut album, MESTIZX—created by Andy Moor of legendary Dutch anarcho-punk band The Ex. 

Moor's remix loops Ferragutti's fiery, hexing chants that decry (what translates in English to) the "lies" and "laughs" of the capitalist colonialist machine, along with Rosaly's torrential Latin percussion / analog drum machine programming polyrhythms, and culminates in a sort of hyperspeed, heavy clave club beat with a ghostly industrial piano melody on top.

About working with Moor, Ferragutti & Rosaly say: "Andy has so much experience with communal music from around the globe, from gqom, dembow, UK grime, phonk or baile funk, but he’s also lived the life of a musical activist, which is apparent in everything he does. We’re delighted that he asked to remix one of our songs. We completely trust his musical impulses on stage, as a DJ, producer, and as a dear friend. We didn’t think BALADA PARA LA CORPORATOCRACIA could get any filthier, but he proved us wrong!"

"Sonic wonders colliding in really great ways," NPR Music says of MESTIZX. The Guardian describes it as "infectiously kinetic," while Treble calls it “an intricate, complex, and thoroughly gorgeous set of songs that weaves between folk, jazz, cumbia, bomba, art-rock and other sounds effortlessly and stunningly.” Glide dubs it "a mosaic of sound that challenges, delights, and inspires ... a pivotal debut."
