LOWRIDER

 


I could go into the story about how this tape (and the next three volumes, and the Barrio Music comps and some face melting tech/grind tapes and some wild ass DIY LA party mixes) landed in my lap, but my recommendation is simple listening. Let me tell you what you'll hear: JOHN CHINGAS with one of the coolest love songs ever, RALFI PAGAN with one of the other coolest love songs ever, a couple of BABY G & ROCK BOX tracks, a killer from TIERRA that you have hopefully heard a thousand times, and oh my fukkn stars can we please get into the history of "Two Of Hearts" because I didn't know I could love this track more and apparently JON ST. JAMES is a thing I need to dig into. Fifteen tracks - Hi-NRG '80s meets classic cruisin' tunes.....even the most casual pop observers recognize that Lowrider culture is just fukkn cool, but this shit seals the deal. I can't wait to feed you more of this shit, it's amazing.
