Sweaty Palms Podcast

For our first episode of 2022 we're broadcasting the conversation we've had with Susobrino at last years edition of the Antwerp based festival Full Circle. Bart Vanobbergen aka. Susobrino is an artist based in Brussels with his roots stretching back strongly to Bolivia. The musician, producer, composer, dj and whatnot melds latin genres like bachata in a blanket of modern electronica influences. His latest offering "Pocualeíto", on the DengueDengueDengue owned label Kebrada, builds on his last two records where he shows another shade of his repertoire.

Happy to have one of our favorite DJ's on the Podcast. San Soda is one of the finest selectors in the game and played at places such as Panorama Bar and Dimensions Festival. Next to collecting records he's busy running his reissue label Music Take Me Up (MTMU), producing a lot of music he's probably never going to release and studying dog psychology. A man of many talents.
