Dave Quam on Venezuelan Raptor House
What could be more “tropical bass” than a South American tribal house version of German rave music? I almost suspect its 4×4 pattern might not be “exotic enough” for many people outside Venezuela to really care. However, the fairly recent flood of Youtube videos showing kids dancing to the music in their barrios tells us that the culture is still alive and kicking. As more young local DJs such as Pacheko and Pocz are starting to put the pieces together and spread awareness of the music from their city, we might see the words CHANGA TUKI on a flyer somewhere in the states soon enough.
