Catalogue: PGR039 
Release date: 09/09/2021

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fantastic world of Da Iguana. After several releases on cool labels such as Random Collective or Serenades, Playground Records is honored to present it’s 39th reference from this talented French producer. ‘Sombras y Sueños’, is not only the name of the release but also expresses part of Pierre's personal biography. He spent some time living in Mexico where he could absorb the oniric language of rituals and the telluric forces of nature.
Before jumping in, we want to warn you about the magnetic power of this album.

Five original tracks full of hypnotic rhythms, downtempo feelings, post-funk groove, organic instrumentations and folk insinuations that build one immersive imaginary jungle. A place out of time, a nowhere land. The perfect scenario for a slow motion dance out of the ordinary everyday reality.
On the remix dimension of this multiverse, Mexican Cabizbajo delivers a more housy version of ‘Sombra Selvática’ and Guatemalan Di Laif goes deep on ‘Reg Sprits’.
From now on, words are unnecessary. Like the king of funk used to say: “free your mind and your ass will follow”

Raised in Buenos Aires, based in Barcelona.

Run by @martin-noise , @kuunde and @ramamoses

Da Iguana is both urban and organic. Instrumentalist ever since he was a kid, Da Iguana has explored many styles until Hip Hop and its instrumentals invaded his life for good and gave him that passion for loops and samples. 
Da Iguana fell for electronic music 4 years ago, revisiting the way he composed and mixed, adding a dosis of his other passion: travelling. From 60 to 140 bpm, from jungle to desert, from ethnic grooves to electronic loops... 

This EP moves between lightness and darkness, gathering Da Iguana’s sonic memories from the jungle & its wildlife (Corcovado), Cuban vibes, Caribbean tropical storms and his encounter with the Surinamese community in Amsterdam…

Da Iguana es tanto urbano como orgánico. Instrumentalista desde pequeño, Da Iguana ha explorado muchos estilos hasta que el Hip Hop y sus instrumentos invadieron su vida para siempre y le dieron esa pasión por los loops y los samples.
Da Iguana se enamoró de la música electrónica hace 4 años, lo que cambió la forma en la que componía y mezclaba, agregando una dosis de su otra pasión: viajar. De 60 a 140 bpm, de la jungla al desierto, desde ritmos étnicos hasta loops electrónicos ...

Este EP se mueve entre claridad y oscuridad, reuniendo los recuerdos sonoros de Da Iguana de la selva y su vida silvestre (Corcovado), las vibraciones cubanas, las tormentas tropicales del Caribe y su encuentro con la comunidad de Surinam en Ámsterdam ...

Vamos!

Xaman - Originario (Original Mix)

The POAN Collaborations EP is a journey into musical kinship. It is a project spawned from the idea that we can create so much more potent art when we come together and combine our strengths to create something that we could never create on our own. These collaborations were birthed out of the musical genius of Lorenzo Mantovani of the ambient instrumental project POAN (his project with Giacomo Barbari). Lorenzo put together seven different loop packs using his wide range of instruments which were then passed on to these producers to create something totally new out of the recordings. Each track takes on a whole new life of it’s own with the unique beat driven approach of each individual producer. The collaborations range from high energy dance tracks to deep hypnotic introspective journeys with everything in between. May this collaborative effort be a testament to the potency of coming together as a collective musical family.
