A1. Te Conocí A2. Pia A3. Alejandro A4. oooophi B1. Descanse B2. ADMSDP B3. Juntos B4. mmmm Genius dembow rhythm science from DJ Python on his 2nd album for Anthony Naples™ and Jenny Slattery™s Incienso. Following from the reticulated deep house-paced reggaeton hybrids of that acclaimed 2017 debut, the new side by Brian Piñeyro ˜Mas Amable™ takes a rambling, sidewinding trip exploring slippery, mutable 90/180bpm metrics with a serpentine guile that surely lives up to his moniker. Imagine Beatrice Dillon jamming with Gescom and Kelman Duran, and you™ve nearly got a grasp on this incredibly constructed album. Across 50 minutes of seamlessly arranged transitions from lush field recordings to hip-gripping dembow permutations and semi-conscious and trippedout vocals, Python dangles the dance by a fine conceptual thread that ties the constant rhythmic chronics to their subtly shifting tonal/textural variables. Call it ambient-jungle-dancehall, avantdembow, deep reggaeton, whatever; it™s just an incredible record for lovers of rhythm and sound of all stripes. Starting up with five minutes of rustling, shoreside ambience in ˜Te Conocí™, the album elegantly and rudely shifts its weight between seven mutations of dembow™s tressilo drum pattern and junglist markers, toggling the pressure gauge from gently propulsive sway in ˜Pia™ to tighter, darker steppers type in ˜Alejandro™ and wavey whistling melodies in ˜oooophi™, before technoid neuro D&B stabs light up ˜Descales™ and it all fades out in the narcotically effective downstroke and tripped vox of ˜ADMSDP™, and slunks into the deep blue reggaeton electronica of ˜Juntos™ and ˜mmmm™. Cast somewhere between the horizontal and vertical, and thus primed for dancehall or late night satisfaction, whatever angle it™s approached from, ˜Mas Amables™ is a unique and richly immersive experience that will surely rank among the definitive records of the year.
