Metaphysics is the debut EP from California native DJ/producer Suazo. 

Suazo is a House/Techno artist who finds inspiration in places most people wouldn't think to look. He spent over two years traveling over 30 countries, finding inspiration in every new place. His travels took him from the sunshine of California to the harshness of winter in Moscow. 

Metaphysics is a two-track house/minimal techno EP that explores the concept of retrofuturism. Acoustic meets synthetic, ancient meets modern, in such proportion it mirrors the artist's physical journey. The contrasting elements are brought together seamlessly to create a single entity. 

Composed in Moscow, the title track, Metaphysics featuring Voudou child, is driven by an ostinato melody played on a Japanese Koto. The melody has an almost hypnotic quality that tempts the listener into a dream-like state. The use of the Koto on top of modern drum samples exemplifies the diverse contrasts found throughout the EP. The vocals are spoken in Russian and inspired by the Isha Kriya meditation. Amplifying the dream-like effect of the melody, the vocals provide a strange feeling of comfortability. 

Luna is the second track on the EP. Composed in Bali, Luna gets its name from a rare astronomical event called "Super Blue blood Moon". In contrast to the title-track, Luna is built around rhythm rather than a distinct melody. Syncopated patterns played on eastern percussion instruments like the khol and tabla are its foundation. Plucked instruments like the sitar are played in a percussive way adding to the tribal feel. Underneath these patterns is a simple four to the floor kick that makes you want to move your body.

Metaphysics is the culmination of a long journey, physically and spiritually. It represents the coming together of many cultures, experiences, and influences. It is thought-provoking and meditative in equal measure. Metaphysics will transport you to a peaceful place and make you want to dance at the same time. It's a house/techno release unlike any other.
