TRIBAL 2025 V.A. OUT Dec 2
PRE-ORDER NOW at naafi.bandcamp.com and get the first cut by ft. - Tecolotl
TRIBAL 2025 arrives as both a tribute and a reinvention of Mexican tribal—a genre that, since the early 2000s, has collided coastal percussion, pre-Hispanic rhythms, and regional sounds with global electronic music. From Monterrey and the State of Mexico to Guerrero-Oaxaca’s Costa Chica, tribal has left its mark on dance floors and shaped the cultural identity of a generation of Mexican and Latin American producers.
Over a decade after NAAFI helped put this sound on the map, TRIBAL 2025 offers a fresh take. This isn’t nostalgia. It’s the raw power of tribal—its driving rhythms, communal pulse, and deep-rooted cultural ties—pushed into conversation with experimental strands of contemporary music and new ways of thinking about the club.
The compilation gathers a new wave of producers exploring tribal from every angle: Clap Freckles, El Chico Callado, Dj Fucci, DNZA, Underwght, Dj W**d, HMR, Lao, Entrañas, El Irrealveintiuno, Homie Luna, Ezya, Cler, Sandunga, Syztema, OZOMATECUHTLI, Ruido Con H, WTTLC, and Zutzut. Each track bends the genre, expands its edges, and asks: what can tribal mean today?
More than a tribute, TRIBAL 2025 is a declaration: tribal remains a space for experimentation, identity, and the global reach of Mexican electronic music.
