RAMON TAPIA -

Ramon Tapia is definitely one of the hottest new talents in Europe. With releases and remixes lined up also on labels like Strictly Rhythm, Sci+Tec, Monique Musique and Riva Starr’s new label Snatch! his dj- and production career kick-started from zero to none. The steady support by very diverse djs from Josh Wink, Michel Cleis, Thomas Schumacher and Len Faki to Riva Starr, Joris Voorn, Sébastien Léger and 2000 And One helped him to get confidence in his stylistic path of choice.

For sure this upcoming proper debut album “Sunka Sanka” will be the next big highlight for the Belgian producer from Antwerp, son of a Chilean political refugee and a Dutch mother. Like in his earlier profession as an official gold smith, his sound scapes are pure machine made jewellery, all perfectly polished for the dancefloor.
With the exception of “I Want You”, the track he did with dutch techno legend Secret Cinema, the full album is produced by him alone in Antwerp in his tiny bedroom studio. Whenever Ramon needs to check his productions on a proper soundsystem the legendary club Café D’Anvers opens its door also during daytime.

Ramon’s music definitely makes people smile - and bounce. It’s filled with the joyous exuberance of the high octane party spirit that initially inspired Ramon to get involved when he was young. It was actually down to his two elder sisters whose musical taste had a huge influence on the youngster. Returning home from the most renowned clubs of the Nineties their gleaming eyes told tales of exuberance and liberation, making Ramon aware of the power of the electronic beats.

Completely fascinated by the sounds of Front 242, Frank De Wulf, Kraftwerk, A Split Second, Tyree Cooper and Kevin "Reese" Saunderson, it was only after his move to Belgium’s techno power capital Antwerp that Ramon started to buy vinyl and become involved in DJing. Working in a record shop while studying to be a gold smith, he realized that music was his life, subconsciously tracing his father’s foot steps.

His dad, the only other musician in the family and whose music was provocative enough to enrage the repressive military government of his home country Chile, is possibly one of the main reasons why Ramon does not get disheartened on his way to the top. “I just want to do my own thing and play.”

Marco Resmann - Remixed: OUT NOW

Marco Resmann sent out a few remix invitations to selected producer-friends throughout the world last year. The idea was to remix one of his favorite tracks on Upon You. The results are now in and will now be used to usher in the new musical year 2010. The industrious Belgian Ramon Tapia has managed to make it on to A1 with his remix of “Sao Paulo Nights” with his knee deep bass harmonies mixed in with beautiful finger lickin’ house chords. His second version will be an exclusive digital track with a touch more percussion appeal.

Loved by:

Karotte: “ramon tapia,boom boom cabane, echonomist are great. will play this.”

Outstanding Ramon Tapia Rmx - MARTIN EYERER & BENNO BLOME – Pianoroll Remix

No doubt, the original track from Martin Eyerer & Benno Blome is definitely very different and special. And the idea of putting a jazzfunk organ on top of a driving groove received big respect from countless tastemakers. Like from Audiofly, who loved it so much, that they did an edit, which will now get its proper release. A brilliant work by simply adding some bits and pieces to the groove which now makes it 10 times more effective and easier to play. Additionally wonderboy Ramon Tapia found a great way of fusing parts of the original organ with a big bassline and pushing percussions. Looking forward for Ramon’s album in winter 2009.

Some early reactions:

Josh Wink: Remixes are great! Play the original a lot. And I think I'll be playing the Ramon Tapia rmx now!

Nick Warren: this tune really gets under your skin, Audiofly edit working for me

Slam: Great release!

Chris Lake: Ramon Tapia mix is pretty damn good!

Oliver Klein: Mein Favorit ist der Tapia mix. Der groovet cool und die Bassline ist echt geil!


RELEASE DATE: August, 24th

greatstuffmusic.blogspot.com/2001/02/craft040.html

Ramon Tapia alias El Carlitto, son of a Chilenean musician who had to run from his home country as he stood up against the regime, and a Dutch woman who was brave enough to fall in love, is a funny character, a very ambitious one: No one would have guessed he, the young jeweler working behind the counter of an Antwerp record shop, would one day release records on labels as renowned as Great Stuff, Craft Music, Corachi!, Pocket, Yellow Trail and Equator, just to name a few. But he does! And he does not stop there! With remixes for Butch & Amir and Özgür Can under his belt, things are looking more than good for the energetic player.

With a happy past in gabba and Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones roots, Ramon has a firm understanding of diversity and a very broad taste in music, readily amplified by his open mind and soul. His Latin background and his Dutch upbringing perfectly explain his cultural curiosity and his deep rooted sense for groove and rhythm. Shimmering through in his intrinsic productions is his love for structural buildups and breakdowns and harmonies which underlay the driving beats.

Mission: “To make people move by taking them on a trip in my musical head without even going into my head,” laughs Ramon, who started getting into making music to “have more feeling for the music. I started with some guy I knew from the shop then I learned step by step to create my own sound. After a while I got the impression that the people I worked with never did the things that I had flying around in my head, so I started to do my own stuff. It gives me a huge satisfaction when I see people smile when they hear my music.”

“A lot of music has had a huge influence on my productions: I like everything from oldskool rap, Ice T/NWA, Snoop, Boards of Canada, totally freaked out stuff, everything that makes sound and moves me. I will buy and play electro, house, minimal, whatever you wanna call it, I like everything. I also love the old Latino stuff, the folk of Latin America.”

It shows: Ramon’s music indeed makes people smile - and bounce. It’s filled with the joyous exuberance of the high octane party spirit that initially inspired Ramon to get involved when he was young. It was actually down to his two elder sisters whose musical taste had a huge influence on the youngster. Returning home from the most renowned clubs of the Nineties their gleaming eyes told tales of exuberance and liberation, making Ramon aware of the power of the electronic beats.

Completely fascinated by the sounds of Front 242, Frank De Wulf, Kraftwerk, A Split Second, Tyree Cooper and Kevin "Reese" Saunderson, it was only after his move to Belgium’s techno power capital Antwerp that Ramon started to buy vinyl and become involved in DJing. Working in a record shop while studying to be a gold smith, he realized that music was his life, subconsciously tracing his father’s foot steps.
