RA.176 Arto Mwambe
The Brontosaurus boys show us what they're all about on this week's RA podcast.
Who or what is Arto Mwambé? Until recently we were led to believe that he's a talented young producer from Burkina Faso. But it recently came out that the men responsible for the project are actually Christian Beißwenger (AKA CB Funk) and Brontosaurus boss Phillip Lauer. The two Frankfurt natives have been active in the city's electronic music scene since the turn of the decade, with Lauer making his mark with a run of choice deep house 12-inches on local label Séparé Recordings, and Beißwenger dabbling in the funkier end of microhouse and minimal techno. Soon after teaming up for a 12-inch of twisted electronic disco on Punkt, Lauer launched his Brontosaurus imprint and took Beißwenger under his wing.
It proved to be a good choice: The sublime rolling house of the Mudhutma! EP became quite the sleeper hit throughout 2007, and follow-up singles successfully straddled the line between quirky electro-disco and squelchy house. They've also started a new studio project alongside Daniel Nentwig and Thomas Sabrowsky of Extra Produktionen which also goes under the Brontosaurus tag, and this week's RA podcast will serve as an introduction to their little musical family. We spoke to the Mwambe guys about the mix, Burkina Faso and their forthcoming performance at RA's party at Trouw during this month's Amsterdam Dance Event.
