One year on from the release of the critically acclaimed ‘Breathe… Godspeed’, Verraco - aka JP L?pez - returns to announce Basic Maneuvers, his debut for XL Recordings.
Sonically, the project reflects this physical and emotional shift from the more introspective beauty of Medell?n to the vibrant energy of Colombia’s capital, Bogot?. Basic Maneuvers reflects movement ― between scenes, sounds, and cities ― pushing forward Verraco’s cross-culture sound; one that collides South American dembow rhythms with maximalist synths, UK soundsystem bass culture, meticulous IDM sound design, with the intensity and precision of techno.
Across the EP, he expands his range with the main single, a powerful 4x4 club-ready edgy banger, a dubbed-out stepper “Total” and “sobe sobe”, a grime-infused collaboration with legendary Kenyan-Ugandan rapper affiliated to Nyege Nyege, MC Yallah, that celebrates the deep-rooted connection between the underground dancefloors of Africa and South America. Basic Maneuvers is a bold statement of intent from one of electronic music’s most vital and exciting producers.
