Bastet is the second album by LCC (Ana Quiroga and Uge Pañeda). Bastet is a ritual study gliding the path from the rites of the ancient to the realm of the modern. Bastet is the name of the ancient Egyptian goddess closely linked to music and female power, who coerced humans to entertain her in order to keep her untamed animalistic side in check. Whilst absorbing this legend, the second LCC release presents itself as a vast canvas of ritual, restraint, and spacious sonorities. Stark and unnerving, Bastet is not reliant on pure electronics as abstract theater, but rather utilizes these tools to conjure a world circling the spheres and planes of symbolic human activity. Recorded throughout 2016 among residencies at the legendary studios EMS in Stockholm, the Inter Arts Center of Malmö, and their own studio in Gijón, Bastet is a rich experience: cryptic, visionary, and utterly compelling. Eight tracks lay forth a deep listening journey into the netherworlds of human experience, movement, ritual, and space. Mastered and cut by Mike Grinser at Dubplates & Mastering. Cover by Pedro Maia; Artwork by anacachafeiro.es and LCC.
