Dutty Artz is very pleased to announce the debut official release from Dominican underground superstar Rita Indiana. Â For those unfamiliar with Rita’s vibe download her La Hora De Volver here, courtesy of Remezcla. Â Perez Hilton is a fan saying: Â “Super caliente! Â We are obsessed with it – and HER!!!!!!!”
Her Dutty Artz single features two songs. Â One, called ‘No Ta Llevando El Diablo’ (translated as ‘The Devil is Taking Us Away’) is Rita backed by her band Los Misterios. Â It’s an angry blast of punk mambo with Rita singing about grannies smoking crack over distorted guitars, guira and 808 boom added by Shadetek and Rupture. Â The second track ‘Los Poderes’ is Rita solo over Shadetek and Rupture’s rework of a Bannana Clipz riddim (Bannana Clipz is Dutty Artz own Chief Boima and Bersa Discos Oro 11). Â Over a mix of digital and live hand-drumming contributed by Ivory Nunez playing an interpretation of Dominican Palo over Bannana Clipz 4×4 beat Rita sings a haunting tropical voodoo ballad.
The release will be available July 6th in all fine digital retailers including iTunes, Juno, Amazon and Boomkat. Â In the meantime, soak your eyes in these:
