Dj Nio's "Agua! - Underground Rap Cubano" Mixtape
('NioSiddharta's Travels #6 Cuba')
Dj Nio, Producer/MC/DJ for Italian hip hop crew Zero Plastica, and Music Director for Nomadic Wax, just released a new mixtape, "Agua!". Nio compiled this mixtape after a trip to Cuba, and used the underground rap music that he discovered while there. This is the sixth installment of his travel series “NioSiddharta’s Travels".
"Agua!" features top tracks from groups like Mala Bizta, Anonimo Consejo, La Fina, Espiritu Libre (Lou Piensa of Nomadic Massive and El Tipo Este of Obsesiòn), Mano Armada, Los Aldeanos and many others.
"Agua!" is hosted by Rino (a.k.a. SismaMan) trailblazing MC from the world-renowned group Groove Yard Sound System, and Amilcar Delgado, Cuban singer, percussionist and dancer who is currently located in Italy.
Nio has also collaborated with feminist rap group Krudas Cubensi, for which he produced three tracks off the duo's last record "Levantate!", one of which featured the famous singer Danay Suarez, often considered the Cuban Jill Scott.
Check out the promotional video, shot by Nio and his partner-in-rhyme Funky Lure, other half of Zero Plastica. The beat off this banger was produced by Nio, along with Sergio Limuti and Simone Regosa (Afro-Cuban percussionists), Toni La Corte (piano) and Steffen Dix & Heiko Giering (a.k.a. High-Co), horn section from the German group Volxtanz.
The mixtape is available as a FREE DOWNLOAD, and can be found on Zero Plastica's website, www.zero-plastica.com
