NeotropiK Vol. I is born from the ideas of the Global South and from the curiosity to explore rhythmic frontiers that have yet to be discovered. A search without limits or borders, where rhythms, cultures and ideas can meet in unexpected ways, looking towards the future.\n\nIn this first installment, three immigrant artists based in France bring together the ideas of Chile, Congo and Kenya with: El Extravagante, Mapipo Yeyo and Siri Suri respectively — Latin America and Africa, engaging in dialogue with the visions of an international community of remixers from four different continents, creating a musical encounter that is difficult to predict and practically impossible to reproduce.\n\nAt a time when artificial intelligence is making much of music feel increasingly generic, NeotropiK Vol. I was created 100\%\% by hand, with real voices and instruments recorded in the studio, without using artificial intelligence at any stage of the process. It embraces the freedom and magic of human error, bringing together cultures that rarely meet in this way.\n\nA sonic statement from Ritmos del Sur and El Extravagante, for everyone who appreciates the unusual, the magical and the unexpected.\n\nEnjoy!
