Responsible for a rich seam of musical talent in the world of underground dance, the introduction of another South American to the ranks of the Particles roster sees Argentinean, Sebastian Busto, take a significant career step forwards with his 3-track "Nature" EP.

A man with a long-held passion for music, Busto's academic prowess in piano from early childhood ultimately led him to study music theory, singing and guitar at the Buenos Aries Conservatory of Music, as an initial foray into the music industry, via performances with rock acts, brought notoriety across his hometown and success with a number of tours and albums. A realisation that dance music was where his true desires lay came from an epiphany watching an electrifying Creamfields performance of legendary godfather of the Argentinean underground dance scene, Hernan Cattaneo.

Turning his attention to the progressive house genre, Sebastian Busto found his true calling. Making an immediate impact with the "A New Kind of Science" EP for Golden Cat Recordings in October 2014, the Argentinean has gone on to see legion original productions signed to some of the industry's finest underground imprints. Thus, OLD SQL, Balkan Connection and Golden Wings have played host to such notable releases as the "Escape EP", "Evolution" and "Spiritual", the latter lighting up the Summer of 2016 in trademark fashion. Well regarded by his peers, the support of Cattaneo himself has leant considerable success to Busto's cause. Indeed, with his countryman playing the title track itself on his "Resident" Proton Radio show in July 2016, it is with great pleasure that we welcome Sebastian Busto to his Particles debut with his concept-themed "Nature" EP.

Opening with the title track, "Nature" is a strong, emotional offering, full of stepped arpeggio lines and delayed shimmering melodic riffs and sequences. Full of bright analogue sounds and a rich sonic palette, the 9-minute voyage forges a vibrant landscape backed by a strong beat and rich percussive rhythm that fills the upper frequencies with an assortment of hats, shakers and female vocal sounds.

Opening with its complex percussive patterns, "Mankind" retains the aural identity of its predecessor with its intelligent use of melodic sequences and rich sonic architecture. A firm foundation is laid via the marriage of a strong beat and subterranean bass line creating a work that bristles with menacing intensity in the breakdown that extends into the third movement with consummate skill.

Final track, "Making Life", is immediately characterised by techno leanings with its rapid-fire bass line and pounding beat that evolves into a delicately grooved affair. Strong chord progressions via smooth pads open a path for a wealth of melodic counterpoint and the presence of an electric guitar lead line adds weight and intrigue to the four-to-floor rhythmic framework.

Whether or not "Nature" or nurture is the dominant force, there is little debating the argument over Sebastian Busto's skilled musicianship.
