The year is coming to an end but we’ve got some surprises left in store for you! In the upcoming weeks, starting today, we’ll be posting the sets of our Global Mashups. For the project ‘Generation Bass presents Global Mashups vol.1‘ we at Incubate brought together vocalists and producers from non-Western countries and had them work with upcoming stars from Western dance genres like dubstep, skweee and tropical house whom they never met.

Today we will start with the set of Steve Rutta vs. Randy Barracuda, a great collabortation. Meet the skweee sound of Randy Barracuda mixed up with the Masaai sounds of Steve Rutta. They rehearsed together during the day, before entering the stage at night. The following mashups will be up and running on our blog and on Generation Bass in the next weeks:

STEVE RUTTA / X PLASTAZ (Tanzania) vs RANDY BARRACUDA (Finland)
FELLOW (Aruba) vs ELGATO (uk)
MENEO (Guatemala) vs BERTONBEATS (est)
DJ QUIEN (Bolivia) vs FLECK (Greece)
MUTHONI (Kenya) vs SILKIE (uk)
HOPE MASIKE (Zimbabwe) vs PROCESS REBEL (usa)

This project was supported by Hivos.
