Earlier this year, Eric Estornel (aka Maceo Plex) resurrected his electro-focused alias Mariel Ito for its first outings in 12 years with the two-track EP ‘2e Komst’ on his Lone Romantic label.

For his next instalment, Estornel plans to release a retrospective Mariel Ito album ‘2000-2005’ - scheduled to drop on October 26 via R&S Records.

The ten-track LP is made up of unreleased material that Estornel created under the alias in the mid-00's. Exploring the emergence of the project and its connection with his Cuban and Miami roots, the album marks the welcome reactivation of the Mariel Ito project from hibernation.

Ahead of the album's release, Estornel shares '99 Tricks' - a noncompliant electro driver filled with scratching and dramatic pads that could perfectly soundtrack any classic South Beach pursuit.
