“水就是生命，但它可以淹死你;它种植森林，但也摧毁城市。水可以作为鱼的栖息地，也可以作为人类的墓地。水是地球的真正统治者，但它是月亮的奴隶，它每天都被太阳杀死。无论它死亡和蒸发多少次，水都会回来; 这是抵抗的真正形式。我们人类仍然(并且将永远)是奴隶，就像水一样。在这个宇宙中，自由不是一种选择，阻力才是。我们70%都是水，所以请抓紧链条，让自己有选择的余地。”

—— Moro

“Water means life, yet it can drown you; it grows forests but also destroys cities. Water can be habitat for the fish, but also serve as a human graveyard. Water is the true ruler of earth, yet it is slave to The Moon, and it gets killed everyday by The Sun. No matter how many times it dies and evaporates, water comes back; it is the true form of Resistance.We humans are still (and forever will be) slaves, just like water. Freedom is not a choice in this universe.Resistance is. We are 70% made of water, grab your chains and feel libre to make a choice.”

—— Moro

这位来自阿根廷的艺术家

Moro

(Non Worldwide / Janus Berlin)

对于那些被称为“俱乐部音乐”风格的人来说，这是一个互相冲突的年代。在这个保护伞里无数的音乐流派和场景中，既有对舞蹈界的关注，但也有对其核心原则的否定。

来自阿根廷的艺术家/制作人/DJ: Moro, 他将阿根廷首都布宜诺斯艾利斯文化作为背景，作品中充满了身份、焦虑、社会意识、偏执和反叛。

“我觉得我的职责之一就是回到非洲音乐的一部分: 探戈，重新找回节奏，让它再次变得重要和引人注目。”

"I feel one of my duties is to go back to the African part of tango, to reclaim the rhythm and to make it important and visible again," he says in the statement. "

Moro 同时还是位于纽约炙手可热的先锋音乐厂牌 NON Worldwide 的新成员，这是一个由非洲艺术家和散居在外的人组成的集体，他们以声音作为主要媒介，阐明在社会中创造二进制的可见的和无形的结构，以及发行一些激动人心、最具社会意识的电子音乐。

NON Worldwide由美国的艺术家/音乐人Chino Amobi，南非的Angel Ho，伦敦的Nkisi，Moro作为厂牌的最新成员，则代表着来自阿根廷文化的背景。他创造了一种新的电子音乐类型：Ramba，在南美流行音乐中对非洲文化遗产进行了充满激情的回收。

2016年Moro于NON Worldwide发行的EP《SAN BENITO》，专辑发行后还多次登上各大音乐媒体的榜单。

Moro -《SAN BENITO》

在专辑中，Moro 仿佛带着听众们去了一趟布宜诺斯艾利斯，并且他试图梳理在阿根廷探戈音乐中的非洲传统文化。在专辑中他把新闻报道、媒体报道、拥挤的人群以及他独创的音乐流派：Ramba，和更多他独特的声音采样联系在一起; 如果你曾经看过电影《发条橙》里的酷刑场景，会让你想起原来这就是专门为你准备的跳舞音乐。

Moro：

The latest addition to the NON Records family—the label run by America's Chino Amobi, South Africa's ANGEL-HO, and the U.K.'s Nkisi—is Argentinian artist Moro. Based in Buenos Aires, Moro's work is concerned with highlighting the African roots of his country's most famous musical export: tango. In a statement on NON's Soundcloud, he explains how Argentina's population is made up of the descendants of white European immigrants and—what's "usually hidden in history books"—the enslaved African people they brought with them, as well as a marginalized native community.

"I feel one of my duties is to go back to the African part of tango, to reclaim the rhythm and to make it important and visible again," he says in the statement. "As part of this duty I'm making this genre I decided to call Ramba." Today, NON is releasing Moro's debut EP, San Benito (buy it here), and you can hear the record's tense and waterlogged standout "Libres," below. In lieu of a quote about the track, Moro wrote us a poem that provides some veiled context:
