Ecuadorian producer Ópalo, also known as Alejandro Romeo, releases seven floating lullabies on his label-owned imprint Caracteres, a sub-label of Quito-based Overlap Records.
In the wake of appearances on the French imprint music_is under the moniker Amalgama – ‘Mysterious Traveller‘ EP delves into daily ambient recordings, luscious rivers of IDM, Detroit-infused house and highland experimental.
Our pick is ‘Experimentation 2‘ – a pristine breeze emanating off the Andean foothills to soothe everyone’s mind. Spanning highly altered frequencies, dubbed-out basslines and far-reaching bell signals, the vision remains clear whenever your eyelids suddenly stop blinking.
‘Mysterious Traveller’ is scheduled for release on 17th November via Caracteres. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
