Part I: Underground Then, Following the White Rabbit

I first heard about the “white rabbit” when I was on a plane to Munich, Germany. The phrase is inspired in part by Jefferson Airplane’s ā€œWhite Rabbitā€. In Munich, the white rabbit is code for the illegal raves that occur inside and outside the city. The parties are elusive by design. By luck, a connection, or perhaps a mixture of both, you can find the white rabbit. The key is to follow your curiosity. Little did I know that my plane conversation foreshadowed what would come to pass.

6AM Guest Mix: Catz ’N Dogz

This week’s Guest Mix artists, Polish production legendsĀ Catz ’n Dogz, have been been on a journey toĀ Club Sweat with a plan to drop a double A-side ready to set the rave-craving animals out of their cage, releasing “Rendezvous / Nasty.”

The duo have creatively crafted a double A-side oozing floor-to-floor elixir, to skillfully entice underground cavern connoisseurs. As those punters find their way to their dancefloor destination they are met with the aptly named “Rendezvous” a tech-house heater that couples deep stomping kick drums, with underlying techno textures for an insatiable groove that is augmented by the deep yet sensual melodies of R&B vocalistĀ Raymoane. The pace is turned up a notch on the flip-side, with stank-face-inducing textures apropos for the title of “Nasty” a tune that layers the hypnotic and conspicuous vocals of Kiddy SmileĀ over a bounce-loaded bassline with underlying rhythmic drums and sirens to evoke a bustling party atmosphere.

Over the last decade, the couple became one of the most prominent members of Mexicoā€˜s vital electronic scene. Their sound can be described as a rhythmic and synth-driven house and techno hybrid. Along with a disco and Balearic twist, which is held together by the oh-so-sweet Italo Drama. You probably won’t find a better combination of Italo arpeggio lines, house pianos, disco drums as well as sun-kissed and mythical soundscapes for your summer soundtrack. 6AM Group spoke with the duo about the underground scene and their favorite party spots in Mexico. Here’s the breakdown. Catch them at the first-ever Departure Festival in Playa Del Carma.
