Drawing inspiration from the natural methods of decomposition and regeneration (essentially the power of mushrooms), VR’s first reference is a 3-tracker that combines social commentary with rhythmic analog and digital waves, reinforced with ceremonial shakers, percussion, and textures obtained by buried mics to propagate an elemental underground vibration, and integrates the sharpening of a machete with the hi-hats to provide the energy to cut through negativity.
Side A holds the Vocal Mix and Instrumental versions of Tecnocigalpa, a galloping track that challenges sub-woofers and intensely portrays a gloomy/dystopian reality to promote awareness with the aid of oscillators, filters, a tropical interplay of sounds and timeless delays. It is a future projection of a city breaking through the paradigm of fear, corruption and violence. Side B contains Displacement: a percussive, synthesized and groovy journey through one of the cultural wounds of history starting in a valley of harmonious pads, moving on with Espinosa’s keyboard improvisation, vocals, celebratory trumpet-like sounds, and a message of relief, one love and forward thinking.[info from wa]
