Extract from Salviatek’s press release
PREMIERE: RASENK – H Bolt x Alicia Keys fallin’ (RASENK Edit)
The compilation is out today, and we were entrusted with the diffusion of Alicia Keys’ edit by RASENK.
RASENK is a 25-year-old Uruguayan producer, member of Salviatek and the Jadeo collective, a milestone in the region’s club scene. Her sets and productions highlight artists and characteristic sounds of her region such as reggaeton, cumbia and baile funk, fused with electronic music. In her work, Rasenk expresses a body language inbetween dance and protest.
HERRAMIENTAS PARA EL CLUB by Salviatek is released today in full on their Bandcamp.
