- A dubby delight: ambient jungle with lush synths, made for glazed evenings.
- Since launching in 2017, También has emerged as a key nexus point for Latin America's experimental electronic artists. The Ecuadorian platform, based in Quito, specialises in glassy synthesis, drone, sound art and abstract IDM made with a thoughtful and immersive touch. Most of También's catalogue induces deep brain massages but this track from Bogotá's dj +1 is decidedly animated.
"Menta" sits at the intersection of ambient and jungle. Its rolling, chuggy pace brings to mind the hazy textures of Vancouver label Pacific Rhythms but what separates it from conventional relaxing music is the sub-bass. Labyrinthine jungle drum patterns throb intermittently amidst iridescent pads and crescendoing synth lines, like morning after recollections of last night's party.
