remo eng - ZZK Records

“Here is ‘the’ mixtape that's blowing my mind right now, dark breezy cumbia and
faster DemBow type riddims that M.I.A would sound great over.” - Mad Decent Blog
“(New cumbia) was cooked up by the talented Argentine called El Remolón, and
it’s a part of his album Pibe Cosmo B-Sides as well. Andrés Schteingart, the man
behind El Remolón, is one of the starts of ZZK Records, the record label born out of the
mythical Zizek club, that since it’s start in 2006 has contributed to putting the genre on
the map in the modern music scene in Buenos Aires.” -Rolling Stone
“El disco (Pangeatico) itself is designed as a bird’s journey throughout the American
continent; a chromatic experience is built as one discovers the consequences of such
trip.” - Club Fonograma
El Remolón is the alter ego of Andrés Schteingart, a producer who tucks hints of Latin American
rhythms like cumbia into a solid base of electronic music. After ten years in the Buenos Aires music scene
producing minimal techno and IDM under the pseudonym Drole, El Remolón or “the lazy one,” evolved
creating medium tempo tracks that make great use of space. His sound is laid-back but heavy-hitting with
a European dance floor sensibility. Schteingart´s strength is in his own evolution as a producer, codeswitching minimal techno into the dialect of minimal cumbia. The artist borrows off-center audio from
exotic sources, streaming innovation and rebirth through his full length album Pibe Cosmo and EP
Pangeatico. He is soon to be releasing the soundtrack for the film Boxeo Constitucion, which he scored
and was recently selected to the BAFICI film festival in Buenos Aires where he was invited to perform live
with a full 8 piece band.
