About this release
"Dystrito Karnaval (EP)" is the first studio work under the record label DYSTFOLK and distributed through The Acid Mind Recordings. This EP combines native sounds from the Colombian Caribbean region such as champeta, bullerengue, cumbia, and rap, and subgenres of Techno such as Hard Techno, Raw Techno, Acid Techno, and Peak Time.
The project was directed conceptually by Carlos Robles, aka Karl Rob, and musically by Jeffrey Palomino (CEO of DYSTOLK). It also includes powerful collaborations from producers and artists from the city of Barranquilla, who are T.A.M, The Acid Mind, Jeffr3y, MODVLE, and Torrente.
Dystrito Karnaval is a musical work in which I wanted to represent the concept of cultural globalization, understood as that manifestation that involves artistic expressions, finding a point of relationship between our own indigenous music, typical of the Caribbean region, and industrial sounds that derive from techno music, giving visibility to our Caribbean musical culture. - Said Karl Rob, director of DYSTFOLK.
On the other hand, Jeffrey Palomino, CEO of DYSTFOLK, comments that "Dystrito Karnaval is a musical work in which I saw a new form of musical expression based on local sounds remixed with international sounds." He continued saying, "this is a cutting-edge work because very few musical projects with this line exist that seek to unify two completely distant cultures: the techno culture and the Caribbean culture."
Finally, both conclude that "we see in this work the beginning of a new alternative musical wave within the Colombian Caribbean, with a focus on unifying two distinct sides of the same coin."
