Following DIVISI 62’s line of “blurring the long lineage of musical idioms in the process”, Marsesura’s new single ‘Barry Hats/Sandra Breaks’ sees the pair bridging remote sound polarities, delving from the Asian continent’s colourful instrumental richness to the US twin cities’ profuse legacy with equal poise.
