Our boy Sabbo who did the insanely amazing “Move On” Remix for Y-Love & Diwon just teamed up with Latin Grammy nominated artist, Ceci Bastida and was just featured in The Fader! ch-ch-check it and download the song free!
“Tijuana/LA musician Ceci Bastida was recently nominated for a Latin Grammy for “Cuando Vuelvas a Caer” from latest release, Veo la Marea, which is awesome since that album was an exercise in solid songwriting and lilting, sweet vocals over kicky beats (also, the second time Diplo’s been sort of attached to a Grammy-nominated project, wild streak). Here she continues her exploration into left-field production on this collabo with Tel Aviv’s Sabbo (Mad Decent, Soulico), balancing the sweetness of her tone with dubstep’s familiar aggression and freaky wobble. Hope she wins! “
