Global Electro is a high-octane road trip that careers through the
continents; from the beaches of Rio to the plazas of Rome; soaking
in the spicy flavours of the Beirut maghreb, and the vibrant, bustling
street life of Calcutta. It cruises down the Panama canal, and arrives
at the Mexican border dusty and exhausted; but euphoric.
> What Bobby Friction [ BBC Radio 1 / UK ] said about Global Elektro :
"Habibi is on Global Elektro, an album sent to me by the Shisha Sound System... I've gotta say this, you may remember DJ UMB who did this great Arabic Electronic mix on the show a couple of months back, well Wikkid Records have just released this album... it has blown me away... Amazing album... I really, really like it... can't go on enough about it."
Bobby Friction [ BBC Radio 1 / UK ]
> Much more rich and varied than a simple hip-hop opus, 'Return of Dirty Dezer' shows french producer DJ Marrrtin extending his tech- niques and talents for new soul rap; passing through funk and electro with subtle scratches and stellar guest MC's.
> Wikkid Records follows up Aïwa's second full-length album "El Nar" and their highly successful debut "Yi Yi" with their "Aïwa Remixed" two part CD series featuring remixes produced by Cheb I Sabba, Transglobal Underground, Nuskool Players, Rise Ashen, RCola, Generic, Sarcastic, Balanced Crew and more...
> David Kristian: a near-legendary local producer known for eccentric electro, d'n'b and experimental audio curiosities released over the last 15 years on Alien8, Interchill, SPV and more. This compilation gathers noticebly listener-friendly tracks recorded over the last decade. Thirteen tracks that I would characterize as lo-fi, nostalgic and pleasantly simple, lull the listener into popping, crackling womb-like comfort zone. IDM with emotion, electro sans clash, these timeless essentials point deep into a robotic future yet remain imbued with a childlike innocence. The cd functions as a precursor to an upcoming series of nine volumes of cd releases by the same name." (Steve Lalla, Hour Magazine)
