NAAFI Affiliate Mock the Zuma Is Dropping a Hypnotic New EP

Two years ago, THUMP featured Kevin Santana (aka Mock the Zuma) as a Mexican producer to watch. Though he isn't a household name yet, that may all change after he drops his long-awaited first EP for the Mexican collective NAAFI next week.

Though Santana has been part of the NAAFI crew for almost five years, contributing singles to their mixes and performing at their events, the 7-song EP Gauss (Spanish for "force") is the first EP released this year from the acclaimed Mexican label and will feature rapper Jamez Manuel from the Chilean rap group Zonora Point.

You can sample tracks from the record, which is out on March 28, at NAAFI's distributor's site and listen to a new independent cut Santana recently posted to his Soundcloud below the tracklist and artwork.

In other NAAFI-related news, the collective have achieved enough notoriety to share a night of performances with the African collective NON hosted by Red Bull Music Academy New York in May.

Gauss Tracklist:

01. Gauss
02. Mist Walk
03. Nazca
04. Saqueo
05. Octanaje feat. Jamez Manuel
