Without a doubt, the Worldcup mania has already consumed the minds and hearts of billions around the globe.
THE FADER is also obsessed and wants us to share this obsession with them. In order to do so they decided to focus on what they know best—music, art and culture.
Due to this, The FADER and Nike Sportswear came together to present a collaborative project, Pitch Perfect.
“Starting on June 1, 2010, and stretching over the next several weeks, they will give you new music from all over the world via continental mixtapes made by top selectors, limited edition screen-printed posters inspired by football’s global reach, and, best of all, a special documentary series filmed in South Africa by The FADER crew as football fans deluge the country. While they were there, Nike Sportswear and The FADER will present a live music event on June 16 at Nike’s brand new Football Training Center in Soweto, featuring artists from all over Africa, that will also be streamed live on nikesportswear.com and thefader.com/pitchperfect so that all those who couldn’t make it to South Africa can feel like they did.”
So jump on the World Cup train and get the first two drops of THE FADER X NIKE SPORTSWEAR Mixtape Series below.
As part one of series I present to you the South America tape.
Mixed and produced by Maga Bo who tries to capture as much as possible his continent has to offer, which is an impressive start with jams from Guyana to Argentina, Brazil to Colombia.

The second installement comes from EUROPE.
British selector and producer Sinden takes a survey of what’s newest and greatest, with a slant on Europe’s beloved house music. It may only represent a small part of the continent’s potential, but wherever you live, I promise you that it is very hard to move your feed to it.
