the ever evolving ever inspiring argentinean turned berliner musical talent that we call out nico purman, once again honors the house of vakant with his latest disco inspired offering to the gods entitled visions ep. in such a short period of time nico has come so far both physically and meta-musically. within just a few releases one can easily hear him developing, maturing, and mastering his chosen art medium. from the mechanical tech funk of his tuesday ep (va017) and euphrasia ep (va025), to the space jazz masterpiece that was rhapsodies (va032), his first step toward disco was in fact with his contribution >xpress yourself< to the family values compilation (va034). with visions ep, once again nico effortlessly transgresses whatever style he wishes and makes it his own. taking a few pages from the book of disco as well as a touch of chicago and a pinch of early new york house, nico both tips his hat to those influences as well as taking things several steps further to create something completely original.

echolettes second release manzanillo 002, follows up with a similar tropical -journey feeling- as felt on echolettes first release, perhaps setting the style for this excellent new label. whereas before it was pygmys and bongos, this time manzanillo has a distinctly more mexican, if not aztec vibe. the original mix kicks off with steady galloping horse like drums and percussion, which is suddenly met by a lovely melodic bassline, which again is doubled up with what sounds like a xylophone. just as your wondering where its all going, a wicked little riff with delayed minimal vocal slices enter the mix keeping the groove going on and on forever and ever... another brilliant and quality piece of music from jackie misfit
