SEE MORE ABOUT THIS PODCAST

When you travel to a foreign place, chances are you’d rather experience it through the eyes of a local. Someone who knows the hidden gems of the city, who understands how to move from one place to the next. Our next Urban Cosmonaut has done just that – this podcast isn’t just a bunch of tracks mixed together, oh no. It’s a carefully selected guide into the emotive experience of Mateo – a Colombian artist living in New York by day, and musical story teller at night. He’s curated a mix that shows his roots in the Spanish language – with vocals and instruments by Simon Dias, Mercedes Sosa and Guillermo Rodriguez Fiffe – combined with his contemporary influences in multicultural electronic music.
As a DJ whose biggest influence was Pink Floyd – a band that broke through sound boundaries and kickstarted an era of psychedelia and experimental music – it’s fascinating to hear where his exquisite taste came from, forming a distinctively recognizable sound that resonates with the label he’s shaping along with founder Sainte Vie at Akumandra.
This set is a combination of deep and melancholic entranced beats with distinctive tribal sounds, soulful instruments and ethnic vocals capable of moving us deep inside. We’re so grateful for a wonderful trip that touches the soul and tickles the heart and say thank you, Mateo!
Enjoy, friends.
