I thought Carlos Valderrama was a baseball player. That’s nice that it’s about sports. I don’t really care. I came in to work on Monday morning and this is what was playing when I came back from getting the coffee filters. This is an excellent Monday morning pick-me-up.

The comeback EP “El Pibe” of Vienna’s bombastic band Madrid de los Austrias is a tribute to the legendary Columbian midfielder Carlos “El Pibe” Valderrama. This EP is a very strong and versatile package showing the eclectic production skills of Michael Kreiner & Heinz Tronigger aka MDLA. “DC 10″ & “Valderrama” (El Pibe Mixsaje) are two unreleased prime time cuts that will rock the discos around the globe by any means. “Deia” is the first track out of the upcoming “Mas Amor” (SR040) album and features the gifted songstress Carol C known for her recordings on David Burne´s label Luaka Bop. The icing on the cake on the “El Pibe” EP is delivered by the Italian production outfit The Dining Rooms with their amazing reinterpretation of the album track “Vida Del Pescador”. The “El Pibe” EP is as fresh as Carlos Valderrama´s unique style on the soccerfield.

Then there’s the reason that I found Madrid de los Austrias in the first place. Their unusual but totally cool mixing of Flamenco and Electronica. Whether you’re already acquainted with Madrid de los Austrias or not, these two tracks will put you absolutely in awe of how many different directions this Vienna duo can take its seemingly novelty sound.
