Rodriguez & McCutchan
aka Coca Morales & Sambo Sumerlin
„Music is our Passion“
Manuel Rodriguez from Magdeburg and Richard McCutchan from Braunschweig have been friends for ages and been making music together sporadically since the beginning of the ’90s.
At the end of 2007, the project “Coca Morales & Sambo Sumerlin” was born, which kicked off with some gigs in Bali (Indonesia).
In 2009, they changed their name to Rodriguez & McCutchan.
Their musical development has been heavily influenced by the diverse sounds playing at the Stammheim discotheque (Aufschwung-Ost) and the Berlin club scene. The sound of the two artists can best be described as distinctive, permeating, sometimes driving minimal tech, tech house and techno beats.
During their performances, they are always very much in touch with their audience, never losing contact with the crowd. For them, it is out of the question to simply mix tracks together. Instead, they fine-tune each track to the max in order to get the most out of the mix – according to the motto “surprise and hypnotize”.
