| Rhythm Section welcomes Nicola Cruz to the fold with his debut EP on |
| the imprint, 'Subtropique', out on the 19th February. The new signing |
| is announced with the hip-hop influenced lead single 'Individuality |
| Riddim'. |
| |
| Inspired by an Ecuadorian upbringing, percussion is at the heart of |
| how Nicola operates, with his style finding a natural home on the |
| London label. Presenting 5 expansive efforts equally indebted to |
| traditional drumming as they are to contemporary club sounds, |
| 'Subtropique' remains sonically cohesive without feeling the need to |
| settle to a definable style. The tracks are tied together by a lucid |
| psychedelic thread, which despite challenging the expectations and |
| fundamentals of electronic dance music, demand movement at a time |
| where we yearn for it. |
| |
| The EP is a new experiment for Nicola who had to strip back his setup |
| to produce at home, using fewer elements. Noting the power of |
| collaboration, Nicola enlisted long-time collaborator and master of |
| drums Pablo Vincencio for 'Zularic Permutations'. On 'Barretto', |
| Nicola recognises the history of his influences, paying tribute to |
| the North American percussionist Ray Barretto from the golden age of |
| La Fania - a collective and record label originating in NYC in the |
| 60s which is renowned for helping to bring Latin music to a global |
| audience. |
| |
| Nicola has gone on to become one of South America's most celebrated |
| electronic musicians, with monthly listeners in the millions across |
| Europe and Latin America via releases on ZZK Records, Optimo Music |
| and Multi Culti, and famous Boiler Room and Cercle performances. |
| |
| |
| Produced and written by Nicola Cruz. |
| Percussion on Zularic Permutations by Pablo Vicencio. |
| Mastering by Frank @ The Carvery. |
