This week’s 909 mix has been in the works for a while now. We’re gassed to have Colombian producer and DJ Bitter Babe contribute to the series.
Based in Miami, Bitter Babe has been pushing for Latinx representation in the electronic music scene for the last 9 years. She is a member of ECO, a Colombian platform that promotes the self-management and interdependence of national and regional electronic ecosystems and a member of Latitudes – a space that aims to amplify labels, collectives and artists from the Latin American electronic music scene. Bitter Babe also made her production debut last year on one of our favourite labels, TraTraTrax, alongside her partner in crime Nick León who you have most likely seen featured on the site before. The EP included a futuristic remix from Simo Cell – an absolutely lethal combo of artists.
Instantly gravitating towards her online mixes (as we still haven’t had the pleasure of her seeing her live yet *sad*), Bitter Babe always keeps you on your toes. Seamlessly weaving through different genres and innovative club music, each set is a lesson, inviting you to learn about the forward-thinking music coming out of LatAm whilst bridging them together with international influences. Her sets are filled with excitement as the powerful percussions and juxtaposing rhythms ripple throughout. We’re juiced up and ready to go! ❤️?
