Maquiladora is a concept often referred to as an operation that involves manufacturing in a country that is not the client’s and as such has an interesting duty or tariff treatment. It normally requires a factory that may import materials and equipment on a duty-free basis for assembly or manufacturing and then “re-exports” the assembled or manufactured product, sometimes back to the originating country.
In the Hatfull of Hallow EP, Quell is interpreting his political and social views against the advantageous plight that is our global economic and military structures. Such as Fela, Marley, Public Enemy, and Rage used music to open your minds of our troubling times. Quell’s hypnotic percussion and driving force will not only make you move but will also hopefully enlighten and inspire you to understand, in the words of Marvin Gay, “What’s Going On?
One could be very challenged and even confused looking at Quell%u2019s output so far. Although a relatively young artist in terms of discography, the producer has already made it clear that he is very little concerned about sticking to one style of music or a certain scene of musicians. It is so rare these days to find individuals who have a bold approach towards dance music, pushing genre defying DJing and general diversity, not only in the studio but also in life.
Ranging from mid tempo deep house and afro-beat house/techno, to straight up Chicago/SF jackin%u2019 house, he has worked with labels such as Ibadan, These Days, Kolour Recordings and Blockhead Recordings to name but a few.If there%u2019s one thing for certain, it is that as far as talent and promise go, Quell has plenty of both, and it won%u2019t be long before he becomes one of dance music%u2019s household names.
Thank You%u2019s:
Extra Special Thanks to Argy and Susanne Heinrich for their continuous support and for believing in me since the beginning of all of this. Also to Boddhi Satva for making this happen and for his inspirational musical vision.
