Oscuro

Oscuro

"Almost nothing is known about Oscuro, a burgeoning producer with post-rock and electronica tendencies, but we do know that he's incredibly talented.We know this because we've got hold of "Can't Stop Now", one of his first official releases.If you're a fan of Caribou or similar post-dance IDM (eurgh, for lack of a better phrase), then Oscuro will be right up your street. His production's organic, stuffed with natural samples - like panpipes - and tribal beats. It's almost like traditional folk music of South America reworked into a hedonistic paean to movement. Chopped vox bleed into pitched percussion, and chiming synths blur into the wonderfully imperfect chaos, and rather than quantised, autotuned and plasticised - regardless of whether it is or not - it seems like its just dripping from the fingers of Oscuro. It feels very real, very of the moment, and as if he's letting the noise slip from his body.This is a magnificent start for an emerging artist, but it's well worth noting that this is just the start. There's so much more to come from Oscuro."
