karmasound: la búsqueda
Francisco Espregueira
The Argentinian and Barcelona-based producer Damián Botigué (a.k.a. Karmasound) has his fantastic debut album coming out tomorrow through Phuture Shock Musik. La Búsqueda follows ‘18 acclaimed Probabilidades EP and ‘19 Can See Thru You EP. Standing out as the producer’s most personal and accomplished work to date, La Búsqueda delves into jazz - particularly of the 70’s Latin fusion/funk variety – as a key source of its inspiration, yet with a contemporary electronic-infused spin and loosely within a broken beat context. From A to Z, an album full of magnificent details.
South American roots. Afro-Latin explorations. Trips between from Candombe to Chacarera. Syncopated rhythms. Early ‘00 London feelings. La Búsqueda shines a bright spotlight on Botigué’s exceptional talent and ability of mixing such richness into one single work of art. A special piece of work marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter in Karmasound’s very promising career as an artist. A very limited vinyl edition will be available, courtesy of Phuture Shock Music.
