‘Welcome to the Ritmo Machine’ is the new collaboration between CYPRESS HILL’s percussionist Eric Bobo and mix master Latin Bitman. With a funky blend of hip-hop beats, live instrumentation, and guest appearances, Ritmo Machine is a border-crossing culture clash of electronic, hip-hop and Latin music.
Eric Bobo, the son of Latin jazz legend Willie Bobo, brings exciting live percussion to Latin Bitman’s signature fusion of dub, electronica and hip hop. Bobo’s funky percussion sounds were first unleashed to the world on the Beastie Boys’ classic albums ‘Check Your Head’ and ‘Ill Communication’. Together as ‘Ritmo Machine’, Bobo and Bitman’s collaboration also features guest appearances from Money Mark & Mix Master Mike (Beastie Boys), Sen Dog (Cypress Hill), Ana Tijoux, P-Nut (311), Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) and Sick Jacken (Psycho Realm).
Chilean beatmaker Latin Bitman connected with Bobo earlier this year during Cypress Hill’s Lollapalooza tour in South America. The two musicians got together to record ‘Welcome to the Ritmo Machine’ in Argentina, and the sparks caught fire. The resulting album is a conversation between two artists with similar tastes but very different backgrounds. Bobo and Bitman’s fusion of electronic and acoustic rhythms produces a unique hybrid made of equal parts old-school hip-hop, traditional Latin music and progressive electronica.
Eric Bobo, who recorded and toured with the BEASTIE BOYS during their groundbreaking albums of the early ’90s, has been a full time member of Cypress Hill since he first connected with the legendary hip-hop crew at Woodstock in 1994.
