https://soundcloud.com/reptilianbusinessrecords co-founder https://soundcloud.com/da-iguana comes back for his 2nd EP on the label, with a 4-track EP giving a glimpse of the endless possibilities of merging different music genres. (RKT) Reptil Kumbia Trance is a psychedelic mixture of Latin elements (dembow rhythms, cumbia percussions), reptilian sound design, and trance-inducing textures. Synthetic sounds meet recorded instruments such as both acoustic and electric guitar, bass, kalimba, percussion, and field recordings. Each track is delivered at a different tempo, from dub to techno, blurring music genre frontiers into one same approach. Convinced that distortion and well-used dissonance are pillars of psychedelic music, he is a real aficionado of "almost out of tune" melodies and off-grid beat components. Always looking for a non-linear approach to repetitive music, this release is one of his closest attempts to give life to music originally perceived as synthetic.

Rain Dub : a dubby piece of breaky downtempo, full of delay FX, guitar harmonics and kalimba flavors recalling a wet rainy day.

Agua KT : a fast track incorporating dembow and ternary rhythms into an electric guitar-loaded horse ride across the Mexican desert.

Kumbia Orgasmika : A simple recipe : create a reggaeton beat, record some cumbia spice to warm it up, have fun with orgasmic ASMR and twist the whole thing with dub FX.

Brocéliande : enter the mythical forest of Bretagne and enjoy your encounter with elves, korigans and playful druids who will teach you how trance is reachable : contrast, chiaroscuro, shifting colors and dreamy soundscapes.

Da Iguana - Rain Dub [Reptilian Business Records]

Octo Records is thrilled to present Épicas Sagradas, the new album by La Forastería — the eclectic ensemble from Argentina whose music fuses epic vocals, organic instrumentation, and vibrant tribal rhythms into uplifting sonic journeys.

Infused with joy and celebration, each track invites the listener into a rich and spirited world where ancestral wisdom meets contemporary soul. Flowing through varied tempos yet always riding high vibrations, this creation takes you on a journey that inspires you to smile, to dance, to share, and to simply be happy and free.

As a special bonus, the album features a collaboration with the legendary producer Lagartijeando — a song that feels like the cherry on top of the most delicious cake you could taste.

This release also marks a special moment for us, as we present our very first vinyl edition through Octo Records. It’s the beginning of a new chapter for the label — one that brings the music we love into a physical format to be shared, played, and treasured. We’re really grateful to make this step alongside La Forastería, whose music and message resonate so closely with our own vision and dream - making it epic!

La Forasteria - Camino a Atitlan

@opopsound

Coming in from Messina once again – OP:OP return with their latest sonic exploration: the MUNDI EP.
Rooted in the cultural mosaic of the Mediterranean, Andrea & Alessio channel their surroundings into sound. From the sandstone glow of Sicilian streets to the echoes of ancient empires, MUNDI is a tribute to a world where borders blur and rhythms travel. Driven by hypnotic ethno-dub grooves and analog warmth (say hello to Moog & Juno), OP:OP dive into earthy textures with cabasa, tight stomps and a variety of percussive elements. Their palette also includes electric guitar by Francesco Frudà and vocal fragments that drift like memories.
On the hypnotic title track, OP:OP map a pre-colonial landscape, a place where ancient stories whisper beneath modern machines. “Do You Follow Barà?” strikes with Afrobeat rhythms and horns, paying homage to the royal dances of West Africa and the legacy of Fela Kuti. On “Mesogeios” (Greek for Mediterranean), you’ll drift between the shores of Crete and the Libyan Sea. “Tricky” navigates the inner terrain of fragile emotions, featuring raw, revealing chants by Billy Prince Brown.

Do You follow barà?
