David Novacek & Felipe Espitia – Guata feat. Martina Camargo [Cartel]

Previously hosting the likes of Tom Staar, Corey James, Eddie Thoneick, Daddy’s Groove and The Cube Guys, Cartel Recordings – the brainchild of groove maestro Kryder – continues a recent hot streak following the label’s 3-year hiatus. The return of Cartel promises to herald the dawn of a new future packed with more of the finest music from the worlds of tribal and latin groove.

Filling ‘Guata’ with a hip-swaying rhythm and funky frenetic basslines, the zippy chords of the piece instantly get you moving ahead of what promises to prove a real dancefloor favourite. Adding a skittering of tribal elements to the single, the return of Cartel is a huge moment in the overall music landscape, with many sectors of the electronic scene clamouring for the label’s return during the course of the past triplet of years.

The release marks a collaboration between FelipeEspitia and David Novacek, with the latter proving a firm favourite with Kryder’s fanbase after playing the ‘God Save The Groove’ Boat Party event at ADE 2018. Amassing support from the likes of Steve Angello, Axwell, Bob Sinclar, Tom Staar, Daddy’s Groove, EDX and many more, the Czech artist’s CV glitters with a spangling run of release across various esteemed labels such as Spinnin’ Records and Kryder’s very own Kryteria imprint.

With the 2020 re-birth of ‘The Cartel’ now in full flow, Kryder is now heading up the operation alongside his co-producer and good friend, Cato Anaya, host of Cartel Radio, who added: “We are working hard on having at least five to six releases this year! We are signing music as we speak! We need in the long run to make this movement of artists, fans, and music something truly massive. We have such a rich musical background in our culture and its unique flavor in each country. I think the vessel to take these beautiful sounds to the world is definitely dance music.”
