KALKPETS 017EP
|
"Max Loderbauer, Pier Bucci and Argenis Brito presented us with their sun-drenched acoustic showers under the name of Maluco on Karaoke Kalk in 2008. For spring 2009, the trio's South American sounds have now been remodeled into brand new electronic dance mixes by three very diligent, and indeed very striking ladies. First up is the almost 10 minute-long Soul-Friction Remix of 'Evandro' by Sonja Moonear. A native of Switzerland, she is in great demand as a DJane as well as a prudent producer of monumental techno music. She is also one creative half of the electronic live-duo Junction SM who call the label Kalk Pets their home and have released their debut back in August 2006 (Kalk Pets 6). Dinky aka DJ Dinky is reviving the fresh sound of 'Sam.' The native Chilean is a true globetrotter, currently living in Berlin, where she runs her own label Horizontal. Her most recent longplayer May Be Later has been released on Vakant in autumn 2008 and is utterly beautiful, like the soundtrack of some sublime travel documentary. An exotic adventure in the midst of a big city. Last but not least, Chica Paula is delighting us with her 'La Del Barrio' version of 'Right Time,' testing the mind with such a relaxed sound that there's just no time for moping about. The Maluco-rush isn't at all a new arena for the Chilean musician: Together with Max Loderbauer she is known as Chica and the Folder, an electronic indie-duo who has latest played live at the 10th anniversary party of the Monika label at Volksbühne, Berlin, in 2007."

This is the debut full-length release by Maluco, a collaborative project by international musicians Max Loderbauer, Pier Bucci and Argenis Brito. Maluco are sure to delight listeners with this summer-fresh release of atmospheric dub soundscapes with electronic pop appeal. Tracks like "Dreamer" carry you away to warm summer nights on the Mediterranean, and whether you are driven into instrumental intoxication ("Evandro") or seduced by Argenis' highly-accented yet excellent vocals ("Passport"), Maluco make you feel comfortable. Flowing rhythms and melodies unite various musical periods; "River" is a cover of the Brian Eno and John Cale song, good old-fashioned reggae is evident in "Sam" and there are country music influences hiding within "Doped." All in all, it's the softer sounds that take the foreground and stimulate your sensitive synapses. Argenis Brito was born in Venezuela and is the singer of Señor Coconut. He scored an international hit with Chilean-born Pier Bucci ("Hay Consuelo"), and together they formed the duo Mambotur. Max Loderbauer is one-half of Chica And The Folder with Paula Schopf, works with Tom Thiel as Sun Electric, and formed NSI with Tobias Freund. These three dignitaries of electronic music have composed an acoustic experience that is drenched in sunshine. Right Time makes your wanderlust grow and day-to-day worries disappear. Maluco -- soothing summer sounds in a rush of electronics.
