Huba, su maestro, teme lo inminente de su propia muerte, y así se lo hace saber. La suerte está echada. Y, a final de cuentas, Sirtaker es solo un mensajero más de Babylon.

via Huba & Silica "We've just launched our newest single, it's called Craze (feat. Jahricio + OP8). The video was shot on the costa rican caribbean (paradise!) and tells the story of a young rastafari apprentice that must master the ultimate dancehall step to fight babylon and fulfill his destiny.
The track was produced using only the Vermona DRM1 MK3, tons of Moog Voyager, Reaktor and BFD2 in Ableton Live. Mixed at Eleventy Studios and Mastered by Simon Davey @ The Exchange, London.

"One week ago, our government approved large scale open sky mining in Costa Rica, a country known for it's biodiversity and rich rain forests. It shocked us all, and we decided to create this track and video to protest against the terrible consequences this activity poses over the endangered species of the chosen territory for mining, a territory with a huge water reserve. We also made the track to say YES to nature, to water, to LIFE.
It's not a perfect track, but we made it really fast, with lots of love. We hope you can post it on MatrixSynth and show to the world the horrible threat of open sky gold mining and also the positive effects that music and analog sounds :D can bring!"
"Huba&Silica it's about to drop a new single called FLASH on march the 26th on Beatport. Recorded and mixed in Costa Rica and mastered in UK by Simon Davey (link), the track was built using the moog voyager and native instruments battery only, sequenced on Live 8.
To celebrate the track and "Flash" it real good, we have also printed a Zine that graphically reinterprets, with a huge dose of sarcasm, the song lyrics about the process by which we stop building our own personality, and favor the building of a character instead. All of our art is created in collaboration with the costarican artists Pablo Murillo (www.pablomurillo.com) and Manuel Al-Ghassani (www.sorryzorrito.com).

There's an amazing growth of the electronic music scene in my country and latin america in general. I would be amazing if you could showcase it on the page. See ya!"
