Bangladeshi-Canadian Lady Tazz follows up the superb first volume of this series with another carefully curated four-tracker that explores the vibrant South American scene. It has always been of great inspiration to the Bangladeshi Canadian whose own music has come on the likes of Rekids and helps invigorate techno with a dark, seductive, kinky new edge. Her aim is always to make, play, and A&R music that encourages people to cut loose, be whoever they want to be and release their inner kink. Like Part One, ‘Lady Tazz presents Hermanas (Part Two)’ is where she platforms the female producers who continue to inspire her.

Argentina’s Sol Ortega kicks off with the stylish ‘Mind is Clear’, which is five potent minutes of powerful linear techno. The drums hit hard beneath warped synth stabs and twisted vocal effects that will keep any party pumping. Gina Demarchi is also Argentinian but is based in Madrid, and her ‘Maniac Girl’ is more dense with a textured twist of percussion, metallic drums and coarse hits that race along over thumping kicks. It’s a physical and steamy cut that never lets up.

Medellín City’s Vannesa Gnz then steps up with ‘Smooth’, which pairs hammering hits and jacked-up drums with pulsing synths that bring sonar-like qualities. The musical drums and oversized hi-hats all demand the most physical of reactions in the club, and last of all comes Venezuelan-born Isabel Soto’s ‘Vita’. This one has a more Millsian and minimal approach with sleek rolling drums and searching cosmic synths journeying deep into the farthest corners of space.

We are presenting the closing track, ‘Vita’ by Isabel Soto.

‘Lady Tazz presents Hermanas (Part Two)’ will be available after the 29th of November HERE.

Bangladeshi-Canadian Lady Tazz has carved out a new, dark, seductive techno sound. Her aim is to make and play music that encourages people to cut loose, be whoever they want to be and release their inner kink. She has done so at plenty of key clubs and festivals, has released on the likes of Rekids and has established Mind Medizin at the centre of this new scene as a vital label but also a selective party series that has hosted across the world.

Now she births Hermanas, a new series to shine a light on yet more like-minded artists. In Tazz’s own words, “This is a very special Various Artist release for me. The rich and diverse sounds of South America have been a profound source of inspiration for me; it’s been a blessing. I wanted to place all the wonderful ladies who inspire me and have been making bold moves with respect to their musical careers into one beautiful release. It’s an absolute pleasure to bring them all onto the label. This VA, as the name explains it, is for the Sisters.”

It kicks off with her own ‘Turn On You’, a glitchy and intense cut with raw techno drums, paranoid vocal murmurings and a frazzled sonic edge that makes it perfect for sleazy warehouses. Next is Erika Andrea Murcia Ruiz, aka Colombia’s RUIZ OSC1, a regular at techno havens like Bassiani and Tresor and on labels like Héctor Oaks’s KAOS. Her ‘Resolute G’ is a chunky tribal number with jumbled percussive loops and zippy pads tearing up the unrelenting and shadowy groove.

Argentinean Milena Adamis has just lit up Europe with her first tour, having established herself as a refined, versatile resident at Crobar and on the Concepto label. She brings dubbed-out excellence and high-speed drum funk with her stripped-back but impactful mind melter ‘Under Depth’. Victoria Mussi is a key part of Paraguay’s underground as co-founder of the Inbetween label and the Tango nightclub in Asunción. Her superb ‘Shine Your Light’ is a sleek techno tool that’s lit up by trippy melodic sequences, spaced-out cosmic energy and a turbocharged bassline that drives the whole thing onwards. Last but not least is Amanda Mussi, a multifaceted São Paulo DJ and producer, agency owner, resident of several parties and tastemaker who plays across house and techno. ‘La Hora Caliente’ showcases her funky take on loopy techno with some deft pad work and smart filters, all serving to lock dancers into a subtly hard but euphoric groove.

We are presenting Lady Tazz’s ‘Turn You On’.

‘Lady Tazz presents Hermanas (Part One)’ will be available after the 27th of September HERE.
