CCM060 - Big Nuts & Big Knives

Coco Machete – Big Nuts & Big Knives. A collection of some of our favorite cuts from Coco Machete Records’ first 5 years, 2002-2007, Remastered. The sound of Coco Machete has always defied typical genre classifications in favor of bring something fresh and unique to the danceloor; There has to be a hook, a hell of a lot of bounce and a heavy dose of the street. The Coco Machete sound has always been influenced by Disco (Let’s Do It Again), Acid House (Rebel Music, Tie Me Up), Hip Hop (Livin’ My Life, Eye Kandy), Electro Funk (That’s A Good Look), and Post-Punk (We Are Back, On Again). As we move into our 10th year as a label we wanted to bring these tracks to light one more time in their remastered form in order to explore the foundations upon which we have built this house. It’s time to ‘Bring Down The Walls’

Ready For The Drama

Saturday, March 14th, 2009


From SCNDL Incorporated, the underground organization that brought you “That’s A Good Look”, we bring you a new scandal with “Drama”. Where “Good Look” was a funky, street corner get down, “Drama” takes you to the darker side, populating the back alleys of an urban electro nightmare. With a driving nasty bassline, hip hop drum sounds, nerve racking vocal snippets and Wu-Tang-esque melodies “Drama” delivers on it’s title. Two solid remixes from Coco Machete mainstays Fukkk Off & Dog Tags take things in opposing directions, electro to minimal/techno; this is a package not to sleep on. Get Ready For The Drama!

Happy New Year!

CCM038 - Polymorphic "Technomusic"
It’s 2009 and we’re ready for big things at Coco Machete. First off the block we have a new artist straight from the cold streets of Moscow. Polymorphic came into the spotlight late last year with his devastating remix of Proxy’s “Raven” on Turbo. When he sent us “Technomusic” there was no looking back, this is some dark, heavy, late night sh**!!! For the B-side he delivered the Polymorphic Trash Mix which although hard to imagine is even dirtier, grimier and more aggressive with crazy cuts and in your face horror movie string sounds. Be afraid, be very afraid !

Also coming up for the new year we have a limited edition set of remixes of Fukkk Offf’s “Rave Is King” from Le Castle Vania & Berlin’s Nhan & Taan , a new release from SCNDL Incorporated called “Drama” with remixes from FUKKK OFFF & Dog Tags and “Take Me Upp” from Montreal’s NROTB with mixes from Designer Drugs & the Trouble & Bass crew’s Math Head.

Keep up if you can !

CCM028 - Dog Tags "On Again"
Coco Machete is back on the block with a new release from Dog Tags. “On Again” is an incredible edgy take on techno that sits as easily on the dancefloors of Detroit as it would in Paris or Berlin. The remix comes courtesy of Martin Eyerer who takes things in a more minimal direction whilst keeping the melodic themes in place. Big room, bass heavy business for the wee hours. Available now on Beatport and your local record shops very soon.
