Liking Kube72′s mix, a rock steady percussion driven treatment that is groove first and foremost… with a truly timeless quality that the best DJs look for.

Love the original but the Kube 72 mix really does it for me. Love how that acid line surprises and lifts it another level. Nicely done. Cheers.

Solid release. I’m feeling the dumstruck mix the most. All of the tracks would kill at the right moment. Good work.

More info: Costa Rica-born, Portland OR-based DJ and producer Mario Maroto is quickly making an imprint on the local and international electronic scenes. Wielding his brand of crisp, funky tech-house and techno, Mario has released with labels such as Half Seas Over (Supernature’s Sub label), Killing Machine, Land Of Voodoo, 82 Rec and SubSensory. His work has been supported by the likes of Alex Niggeman, Markus Fix, Audiofly, Kabuto&Koji, Ida Engberg, Dubfire and Steve Lawler. He’s played major clubs throughout Costa Rica, Panama, Barcelona and Miami, as well as a variety of other US cities.
Mario’s latest dancefloor bomb “Ghaniyah” gets straight to the point with a funked up bass groove and seriously infectious tech-house rhythms. You can’t help but feel a sense of joy in this track, possibly a reflection of Mr. Maroto’s own energized and positive persona. Ghaniyah means beautiful girl in Arabic, a nod to the eastern sounding samples throughout the track.
UK dj/producer Kube 72 comes through with a massive tribal remix. Big bass drums, organic percussion and a stomping beat make this a guaranteed floor-filler. Another great tune from Kube 72, whose recent remix of Ryan Luciano’s – Le Freak (Kube 72 & Danny Oliver RMX) landed on Carl Cox’s 2010 Space Compilation.
Portland, Or-based Dumstruck’s remix adds the minimal funk to the equation. A rolling array of drums and a thumping beat carry this remix along. It’s great for layering and for kick starting the party in general. Great work from the up-and-coming Portland-based artist
