BARRETSO

When it comes to the fastest rising stars on the electro scene, it’s hard to resist the Barretso chill. This technically proven Chilean has been hard at work over recent months teasing and tickling us with his fantastic remix skill, having proved himself on re-rubs for the likes of Justice, Monomen and Astro. Along with the rest of the world, we’re yet to find out much more about this crafty Chilean, but sometimes mystery makes things all that much hotter.

It sure worked on us here at TUFFEM UP Records, as we snapped him up without too much adieu and have had a taste of his first original material. He’s busily locked away in his super secret underground bunker (think 007 type vibes), where he’s toiling away on material for his debut EP, which will be out on in February 2010, followed by his maiden journey to blow clubs across Oz into the outer galaxy.

Barretso is based in Chile – and that’s actually everything we know about him. Of course next to that what we can acquire for ourselves – his skills in remixing! And in fact that’s already everything we really need to know. Monomen, Astro and Justice are the acts that he was heart hard enough to remix. Although this must be version no. 2.614.981 of “We Are Your Friends” and nobody here at TFL HQ wants to listen this track not even for a second anymore, we know from good authority that this one will make you float on top of your waterbed. Both of the other remixes don’t rank behind and bring home the message this Chilean has something that’ll catch you!
