INFO


Following celebrate d releases from Annie Hall, J.Wiltshire, MANASYt and Mental Overdrive, Amsterdam based label MUSAR returns to Ricardo Tobar for 'Nadivi', two earthy electronic trips, accompanied by a bewitching remix from Legowelt.

On this excit ing release, Chilean-born Tobar continues his knack of blending the live tones o f krautrock and electronica with a house and techno pulse, in a style not dissim ilar to Luke Abbot or James Holden (Tobar has previously released on the latter' s imprint, Border Community.)

Title track 'Navidi' finds him at his o ffbeat best, a genuinely progressive and psychedelic rolling house number that b lossoms into something surprisingly epic while utilising only weirdo textures, a skew basslines and otherworldly samples.

Legowelt, meanwhile, flips t he energy of the original into an acid bath, blending his typical grit with a ha lcyon and dare we say, surprisingly funky bassline, while retaining the weirdo s pirit of its source material. Finally, on the memorably titled 'The Structures O f Summer Are Within Us', Tobar rolls out a wistful, cathartic live jam that blos soms into something curious and perhaps unexpected, reminiscent of Silver Apples or Animal Collective.

Staking further claim as one of the most natur ally innovative and feeling producers in the electronic music landscape, 'Navidi ' is that rare sort of dance release; propulsive, intriguing and refreshingly lo vely.
