Los Hermanos PROFILE
Los Hermanos literally translated from Spanish into English means "The
Brothers". But for those involved in Los Hermanos it means much more. It
means a coming together of people from different cultures,
enivoronments, skills and spirit. For the purpose of Music.
Los Hermanos is the brainchild of Gerald Mitchell and DJ Rolando Rocha.
After their immensely successfull underground smash "Jaguar" released by
the mysterious Detroit label Underground Resistance in 1998. The two
producers convinced UR label owner "Mad Mike Banks" to back their
fledgling label idea as it became painfully obvious from the massive
response of the Latino and Black house music communities and the
tech/house movement worldwide that more music of this style was needed!
In 2002 after 4 years of whitelabel testing Los Hermanos was launched
as an UR imprint label. With the first official release (LH-001)
entitled "The Birth of 3000" a record that celebrated long time Detroit
mainstay Submerge Distribution's move to a new building located on the
same street as former Detroit powerhouse "Motown" was located on. It was
clear that Detroit indeed had birthed a new sound.
The infectous blend of Latin Rhythm and soulfull gospel chording from
Los Hermano's main man and driving force "Gerald Mitchell" in
combination with the skillfull DJing talents of Rolando and the djing
and post production prowess of Los Angeles implants DJ Dex and Santiago
Salazar playing the records out while on tour along with Isela Salazar
and the Submerge team making sure the Los Hermanos records got to where
they were supposed to go on time! Helped to spread the now globally
recognized sound.
Los Hermanos is a great example for all of us of what understanding,
respect, togetherness and the spirit can achieve to take all of us to
another level.
