NSM011-1 Nosmo v Kris B & Ben Brown - La Cocina pt. 1 (featuring remixes by Mazi, Pako & Frederik) (Sep 16th, 2008)

Mazi and Pako and Frederik are the featured remixers, on the first part of this massive two part release. 'La Cocina' features the sexy, spoken Spanish vocals of Mercedes, telling a dirty little tale, physically and geographically, of things she would like done to her. It takes place over a pumpin tech house groove, sparse, dissonant bell leads, soft orchestral notes in the break – shattered with a gritty bassline and spooky effects.
Mazi's Humboldt Park remix/dubstrumental – Mazi (Audio Soul Project) lends his unique sound to this monster House/Tech remix, bringing funky beats, grooving bass, and housey, mellow, spooky organ chords that complement the original riff. Thsi is another cross genre release for us, as Mazi combines the best elements of house and tech.
Taking a minimal approach, Pako & Frederik (Global Underground) really work the dynamics of the track, tight beats change dramatically throughout, with several huge breaks - simplicity at its finest. The original instrumental vocal/dub mix bring us funky Tech House/Techno from established progressive producers, Nosmo v Kris B and Ben Brown. The track starts with an infectious, unsettling tech house groove, shuffled beats and pumpin bass. Seductive vocal and lush melodic hits lure you in further, until a funky dirty bassline halfway through takes over, and will get the dancefloor movin.

Reviewed:
This release is a meeting of several progressive and tech minds, with Nosmo vs Kris B, Ben Brown, Mazi and not to mention Global Underground's Pako & Frederik involved in this particular package. The label providing us with this release is Nosmo vs Kris B's very own Nightshade Records, based in Chicago.
The La Cocina Original is a tight little house number with techy stabs and an interesting vocal cut up at various points during the mix. There's a nice dark lounge feel.... 3.5/5 [ Chris Sterio]
