Fuera drop hypnotic ‘Mariposa’ live session via C41 One Stream Live Channel
Following the release of their infectious new IDM banger ‘Mariposa’ which gained attention from the likes of Wonderland, METAL Magazine and Radio X’s John Kennedy amongst others, Italian trio Fuera have now dropped a hypnotic live session for the track via the C41 One Stream Live Channel.
If you’ve not heard them already, Fuera are a special act who likely to become a big part of your life once you venture into their realm. These three friends from Naples have been building something like a phenomenon across the entire boot of Italy bringing their unique fusion of rap, techno, and psychedelic punk aesthetics into explosive live shows across the peninsula, leaving clubbers, festival goers and everyone who sees or hears them pledging allegiance and not being quite the same ever again. As if an awakening has taken place. It feels like a cross between Fat White Family, Beastie Boys and The Prodigy all in their prime but with some of the most inspirational and intelligent productions not seen since early Aphex Twin.
The new C41 One Stream Live Channel session of ‘Mariposa’ sees Fuera shrouded in a thick gloss of darkness as glitchy visuals and intriguing scenes invade the screen, in amongst the trio’s high energy performance of the track. Far more than your usual live session, the video feels more like a work of art to accompany the single.
Bay Area beatmaker/visual artist DJ Design returns with new single “I Wanna Be Free” (Below System Records). Washes of synth collide with a dense horn arrangement and snappin’ drums. West-Coast emcee Gennessee guests on the track spitting a lyrical dissertation on the woes of a police state, racial profiling and surveillance.

While more of a behind-the-scenes player DJ Design’s (aka Keith Griego) work has had a sizable imprint on the history of modern hip-hop. As a DJ/Beatmaker and visual artist he has contributed production and art since the late 90’s for notables including The Beastie Boys, Madlib, A.G., Foreign Legion, Rasco, Peanut Butter Wolf and Phat Kat.
As a visual artist, his high point of work with the label was his design of the 12” vinyl cover for Lootpack member Madlib’s side project Quasimoto. The cover for “Microphone Mathematics” featured Design/Griego’s visual representation of Lord Quas as a sort of alien aardvark, which was adopted by the artist and has since become one of the most iconic and enduring
characters in the game today.
