Barcelona-based, Argentinian producer Nicolas Abalos – aka Shall Ocin returns for his second helping of Culprit, almost exactly a year after his label debut, ‘Crash into My Love’. The first EP set the inventive and musically adventurous template for Shall and was supported by the likes of Damian Lazarus, Ivan Smagghe and Miguel Campbell, among others.
The artist continues to explore the psychedelia-tinged, heavy electronic groove territory with the three sparkling originals on the ‘Conception EP’plus a remix from Valencia talent, Edu Imbernon. Each song is brimming with musically sophisticated ideas: Shall’s own effected vocals, at times immediate and emotionally charged, at others – disembodied and spooky; his love of a catchy electric guitar riff; tight and precise basslines; off-kilter synth melodies, touches of jazz fusion and shimmering ambient textures.
Shall Ocin 是一位年輕的製作人,正發展著其獨特的音色。雖然受到朋友兼導師 Maceo Plex 的影響,Shall卻是位嶄露頭角的非凡人才,充滿了獨創性。
Shall 將他本已強大的製作才能集中在兩個廠牌的製作上:Culprit 和 Leftroom。令人耳目一新的忠誠,這位年輕的阿根廷人肯定會繼續他的崛起,定義這兩個印記的聲音。
For the remix, Culprit keep it in the family, as they tend to do. A friend of Shall Ocin’s from their days in Valencia, Edu Imbernon is a production juggernaut. He’s been responsible for a string of big releases in the past couple of years, including a massive remix of The XX and one of Culprit’s anthems of this past year, ‘Fayer’ (with Los Suruba).
