Track of the Day: Afro-Tek - Feel It

The mix this week from Whitney Fierce is a great selection of dance tunes infused with a wide variety of beats and rhythms. From disco to tech house, to latin house with some jungle vibes for good measure. She really has put together an impressive mix, and all in the jungles of Mexico while at BPM Festival. Our track of the day focuses on one of three tracks from Vamos Records Whitney pulled from for her mix this week. Released a couple years back, 'Feel It' by Afro-Tek starts out with a pretty standard but lively four on the floor house beat, gradually developing a funky groove that gives way to more of a Spanish vibe. There is a great sense of atmosphere and authenticity to the production. When the beat drops out and gives way to spirited castanets and vibrant horns, it feels as if I was transported back to one of the many flamenco bars I visited while in Seville. Afro-Tek brings the whole track together as an extremely high energy and vibrant house tune which is respective of the genre of music it is attempting to emulate.The Swiss producer Afro-Tek got started back around 2009 remixing Carlos Russo, producing more on the progressive house side of things for labels such as Enormous Tunes and Pink House. As his career and sound has progressed he has also found himself producing some extremely sexy and vibrant tech and tribal house. Today's track of the day is case and point. Beyond his earlier days he has gone on to see several releases including his most recent 'Trombezza' with MJOY Records, as well as Vamos a French label that I strongly recommend checking out, and Amala Musica,Check out today's track of the day along with all of the other great tunes Ms. Whitney Fierce chose for you all to enjoy this week in her guest mix for us here at LAMP.
