Echo Chamber

by Shcuro

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Fresh off producing a seminal documentary about the origin story of Portuguese rave culture, Shcuro returns to his mother tongue, music, to give us four slices of fresh yet classic Lisbon underground flavour right as the summer sets in. ‘Echo Chamber’ EP, Paraíso’s 17th outing, comes with two equally excellent remixes separated by the atlantic: Brooklyn’s MoMA Ready and Berlin’s Mareena.
    Side A starts with two tracks first blueprinted this past year as Shcuro prepared a new live set. ‘No Expectations’ opens the record with a high-paced sweat-breaker that elegantly evokes early rave culture as stabs, funk and feelings abound. A2 ‘Persistence’ follows suit with the work that exudes proficiency: sound design, dub techno learnings and masterful layering all conspire to create a moment of pure techno draw. Closing side A, ‘Deviation’ pulls some of the previous track’s energy even though it’s a rework from the artist’s earlier unreleased catalogue: another sign that we’re talking realness here. Clever percussion and refreshing washes drive us well into dubby territories.
    ‘Suspension’ opens the B side, picking up where it left off with the last original: a beautifully produced piece with fleeting mutating stabs that seem to swim alongside us in an imaginary oceanic dancefloor. Liquid, refreshing senso- rial motifs seem to underpin this record and that spirit spills into the remix pack, starting off with MoMA Ready’s take on ‘Persistence’, bringing out the rawness in the original while adding a special sauce with Robert Hood-like funky yet minimalistic bleep work. Tresor’s Mareena steps in for a centered, dancefloor-geared - but still mysterious - twist on ‘Deviation’, perfectly rounding up the record with the expertise of a club resident.
