Well it may seem a little ODD but the most underground yet progressive movement in Cuban Urban Sound is firmly rooted in Nuevo Zealandia...
& I guess by default, yet it's certainly makes sense having a buffer like NZ between negotiating the US market, & the Cuban State traps. As the embargo makes this mission a lil more complexed than the average artists trying make a noise and a buck.....
And so... well this all started pretty much as hobby something to get involved with in Cuba, we all got our opinions about Cuba the politics, the embargo, the cigars, the rum & ofcourse the music. Yet most of us can only spectate, some of us have family there & visit when we can, and some dream of returning. We can all agree that the music is what takes us there when we close our eyes & turn up the volume, thats all we want to do at trespeso, we combined our collective efforts to turn up the volume on an interational level & in effect we all became family.
The primary 3P objective was to assist in facilitating the elevation of the quality of this music in it’s total production in order to create opportunities that may improve the talents current economic situation & we've arrived there now. So the objectives have evolved into an independent label Trespeso Music Ltd registered in New Zealand with sole focus on keeping it real & keeping it Cuban in both clandestine production & economical structure. Every artist signed to Trespeso Music is on 50% split on their products revenue, the other 50% is invested back into Trespeso Music to develope more artists & more facilities in Santiago de Cuba. Until enterprise is legit & fair we roll on....
.....filosofía del bolso negro....tu saaaaaabe !!!
Trespeso would clearly still be a mere hobby of afficionados if it were'nt for brilliance of the muscial arithmatics of the very best underground producer in Cuba Kiki. All that gains momentum on the streets of Stgo, in Pum Pums, Fiestas, Pistas & even in tourist Hotels and Cafes has been crafted by the hands of this musical lunatic Kiki.
Alayo is pure psycholgical geniuos, well respected in the Moviemento of Stgo Hip Hop & Reggaeton. His contribution to Trespeso is paramount resolving situations that seem lost Alain is pure ghetto diplomat, that is clearly recognised from any person whom earns this mans friendship, palante mano !
