THE SPOTLIGHT: SONORA


(ANIMAL NOISE)
I GOT A CHANCE TO CHOP IT UP HERE WITH A LENGEND IN THE MUSIC.
BRINGING THE ROOTS OF MUSIC BACK INTO THE SCENE WITH SPECTACULAR SAMPLES THAT YOU WILL NEVER HEAR, BUT WHEN YOU DO IT'LL MAKE SURE YOU PULL A HOT LATINA TO THE SIDE AND GET YOUR NASTY GROOVE ON!!!!!
WE START OFF WITH HIS NAME:
DROP DOCTORS: STATE YOUR NAME AND WHERE YOU RESIDE.
SONORA: SONORA IS THE NAME, AND I'M FROM SAN ANTONIO, TX
DD: WHAT EXACTLY INFLUENCES YOUR MUSIC?
S: I WORK WITH A LOT OF SAMPLES, ESPECIALLY FROM THE THIRD WORLD AREAS. I SPEND A LOT OF MY TIME DIGGING UP PERUVIAN, COLOMBIAN BULLERENGUE ALONG WITH SALVADORIAN, WITH SOME CUMBIA. BASICALLY ANY KIND OF FOLKLORIC GENRE AND BLENDING IT IN WITH MY OWN PRODUCTION. PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING I DO HAS SORT OF A HYPER TROPICAL CUMBIA TWIST TO IT. 
DD: I JUST RECENTLY GOT TO HEAR YOUR RE-WORK TRACK FROM MNOLOS TRACK
"BAYUNCADAS BRASILENAS" HOW DID THAT COME ABOUT?
S: A FRIEND OF MINE ERNEST GONZALES WHO RUNS EXPONENTIAL RECORDS.
WHICH IS AN INDEPENDENT RECORD LABEL HERE IN SAN ANTONIO, TX, POINTED ME TOWARDS SOME OF MNOLOS WORK AND ASKED IF I WAS INTERESTED IN REMIXING ONE OF HIS TRACKS, I THINK HE IS WORKING ON A REMIX ALBUM, BUT I REALLY LIKED THE SAMPLE HE USED IN "BAYUNCADAS BRASILENAS" FROM THE EL SALVADOR EP, SO I DECIDED TO WORK WITH THAT ONE. 
DD: AWSOME! SO WHAT'S IN THE WORKS WITH YOU AT THE MOMENT?

S: I HAVE A LOT OF TRACKS I'M WORKING ON AND THAT HAVE YET TO BE PUT OUT, I ALSO HAVE A TRACK TO BE RELEASED ON A COMPILATION  BEING ORGANIZED BY DOMA TORNADOS,FOR A CELEBRATION OF A NEW LABEL WHICH WILL RELASED UNDER CREATIVE COMMONS AT WWW.HIPIDUKIMUZIK.COM.
DD: SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING HERE AT DROP DOCTORS WOULD LIKE TO HEAR! (LAUGHING) WHO CAN WE EXPECT ON THIS COMPILATION?
S: IF YOU LIKE MY STUFF JUST WAIT TO HEAR THE OTHER ARTIST ON THE COMPILATION LIKE: CHANCHA VIA CIRCUITO, BLACK MANDINGO, COPIA DOBLE SISTEMA, SONIDO DEL PRINCIPE. THEY ARE REALLY GREAT ARTIST, THERE SOUNDS ARE JUST AMAZING!
DD: CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR THAT HONESTLY! SO WHEN CAN WE CATCH YOU HITTING THE CALIFORNIA SCENE?!
S: I'LL BE HITTING UP CALI IN A COUPLE MONTHS FOR A FEW SHOWS, BUT I'LL BE SURE TO LET YOU GUYS KNOW.
DD: AWSOME! WE CAN'T WAIT! WELL THANKS FOR STOPPING BY AND GIVING US YOUR TIME WITH US! THIS IS LEGENDARY IN THE MAKING! (LAUGHING) 
DD: WELL BEFORE WE GO, DO YOU HAVE ANY SHOUTS YOU WANT TO GIVE OUT?
sYEAH SHOUT OUTS TO: RADSCARSSS, UPROOT ANDY, DUTY ARTS, ERNEST GONZALES, DIEGO BERNAL, MIDL, THE PELIGROSA CREW, BERSA DISCOS, ALL THE CRATE DIGGERS AND ALL MY HOMIES/DJ'S IN THE 210.
