Listen: Oscuro - "Can't Stop Now" [Premiere]
Almost nothing is known about Oscuro, a burgeoning producer with post-rock and electronica tendencies, but we do know that he's incredibly talented.
We know this because we've got hold of "Can't Stop Now", one of his first official releases.
If you're a fan of Caribou or similar post-dance IDM (eurgh, for lack of a better phrase), then Oscuro will be right up your street. His production's organic, stuffed with natural samples - like panpipes - and tribal beats. It's almost like traditional folk music of South America reworked into a hedonistic paean to movement. Chopped vox bleed into pitched percussion, and chiming synths blur into the wonderfully imperfect chaos, and rather than quantised, autotuned and plasticised - regardless of whether it is or not - it seems like its just dripping from the fingers of Oscuro. It feels very real, very of the moment, and as if he's letting the noise slip from his body.
This is a magnificent start for an emerging artist, but it's well worth noting that this is just the start. There's so much more to come from Oscuro.
