soul of hexs vicario musique is making a comeback in 2018, with cedillos most personal ep to date. the main track tetro is a futurist, simple but effective track dragging influences of the highest order on chicago, berlin and detroit. shadow aspect moves into a darker perspective combining analog and modular synthesis and clever drum breaks. on the bright side of the ep, sun compass a collaboration with his brother anttares is reminiscent of a paradise/balearic inspired track showing cedillo brothers versatile style. to finish the ep, the melancholic there are no words is a dedication to the memory of cedillos grandfather. tetro has been already being championed live on soul of hexs live boiler room session, and at tim sweeneys beats in space mix by zombies in miami.

there must be something in the water of the canary island seas. something that turns quiet kids into tasteful buttoned-up hooligan experts in house music. >luxemburgo< is the huge vicario musique choon everyone was waiting for. a groovy sure shot which combines commanding ferocity and a delicate class in a way reminiscent of michael j collins early work, but also hints at alex & isaacs passion for house and mysterious funky vocals- almost ambient melodies a la lone, carried by a strong rhythm built on noble drums, unraveling the most >hands in the air< breakdown since the invention of putting your hands in the air.
