2017

Sex Magazine is excited to announce thein a series of exclusive mixtapes with Nudo, the duo who performed at the Issue 12 launch party in Austin, hosted by Contain. 

“We met at a bar called La Perla in Austin — a timelessly ramshackle Tejano bar where you get bad vibed by old cholos and construction workers until you sort of ‘earn your stripes’ and then they love you like a brother — and bonded over our mutual adoration of Elysia Crampton. She totally birthed the gestalt of what we do. We are forever in her shadow."

"We’re also both fans of Suicide, Demdike Stare, Ariel Camacho, Can, Valentin Elizalde, Corridos Tumbados, Sonidero, James Ferraro, Big Black, Tejano, Norteño, Scott Walker, funk, jazz, ambient, but we pretty much look for a feeling rather than a sound or genre." 

"It’s kind of dispossessed, bittersweet — haunted and yearning. Norteño and Tejano are extremely nostalgia-based. Insane nostalgia. It seems to be the only feeling Mexicans are caught on. Like crying while dancing, filled with a deep understanding of how fleeting a good time is. " 

"We’ve been playing music for around four years now, nonstop, but only started doing shows more consistently around two years ago. Before that we’d just play in the studio for ourselves, making proper eviscerated Tejano and experimenting with abstraction."   

"I like to describe what we do as a sustained and perpetual psychic handshake. It’s not always music or writing. A lot of times we’ll just vibe out to statistics and lore from the zones we’re from and greater Texas. The tangle of lifestyles and lifetimes and realms of the border areas. Can’t live with it; can’t live without it.”

DC Promo Tracks #490: Julius Theory "Ruin Pool"

Taken from 'Action Sports 2'(G&P016), out November 8, 2020.

Besides Action Sports, the duo of friends and frequent collaborators Matthew Pepitone (alias Karmelloz) and Dylan Howe (alias Cplusplus) together form another two vital projects - Julius Theory and Portland Compressor. As Actions Sports they candidly combine their solo approach into sublime and multifaceted compositions, welcoming the listener with a great dose of warmth and pleasantly-colored sentiment. After dropping their first eponymous longplay via Barcelona-based label angoisse, Gin&Platonic is proud to present the duo's follow-up – 'Action Sports 2', which marks their most diverse and complex work yet.

Moderately reinterpreting the legacy of such as BoC or Biosphere while still staying up to date, the duo ambitiously joins the rank of rising contemporary ambient-oriented projects, recruiting from labels like West Mineral or Motion Ward. Beautifully balanced and elegantly composed, the music on Action Sports 2 seeks to erode the delimiters between pristine hi-fi digital dub, abstracted electronic glitches, and the smoked-out, but emotive haze of the American Pacific Northwest ambient. Being released in early November, the mesmerizing longplay calls for repeated listens while out on cold strolls through nature trails, or just leaving unpacked for a proper evening couch voyage with a thick damiana spliff in hand. Either way, Action Sports 2 offers enough thought space for the inherent and low-key rewarding post-summer contemplation. 

Written, produced & mastered by Matthew Pepitone & Dylan Howe
