The story:

Balearic DJs Chris Coco and George Solar started making tunes together a couple of years ago after a chance meeting at Ibiza Sonica radio followed by some deep chats about dub and the future of chill out music.
After a string of singles they decided to make an album based (loosely) around various rhythms for the basic inspiration. George, who is also an accomplished percussionist, made a list - Nyabinghi, Guaguanco, One Drop etc - and Chris added one of their own - Algaroba. 
The basic rhythm tracks were recorded in Ibiza, mostly drums and percussion, naturally, with a little added bass from Fly, who also, fortuitously, is the sign writer who made the cover image.
Various elements were added in Ibiza, Buenos Aires and London, and, after some digital wrangling an album of beautifully organic downtempo delights finally took shape.



Basic rhythm section tracks recorded by Michael Alcaras at Spaceship Studio S’Argantera/Ibiza 2021

Fusionne la masse dans la cité
Parvis de millier de personne
Nuages d’atomes organisés
Nuée d’insectes qui fredonne

Précipité dans l’immensité
Comme attiré par l'arôme

Je te veux, comme la première fois
Tu m’as pris, comme la première fois
Dans la nuit, comme la première fois
J’ai souris, comme la première fois

Plonger dans la circulation
Quand la destination devient capitale
L’oeuvre est dans la concentration

Dominer les rêves de garçon
Et cette fascination animale
Sonore est la population 
Sauvage est l'agglomération 

Je te veux, comme la première fois
Tu m’as pris, comme la première fois
Dans la nuit, comme la première fois
J’ai souris, comme la première fois
