The new release from SHIKA SHIKA, the label headed by Barrio Lindo, is a set of fresh-feeling futuristic polyrhythm tracks — a full album from FEDERICO ESTEVEZ, who also drums for CHANCHA. The very essence of electric folklore. Very cool!

He expresses a universe of complex polyrhythms through the wisdom of South American folklore — his blood and his roots — and the essence of African rhythms. His fresh proposals, born of a drummer/percussionist's perspective, were realized alongside allies from the scene: Chancha, the scene's flagship figure; Klik & Frik, currently on a roll with recent releases on European labels; Rodrigo Gharlad, who has also collaborated with Nicola Cruz; and Pablo Paz, who put out work back in the nostalgic Argentine sound-art era and now drums in Uji's band.
Fresh-feeling futuristic polyrhythm tracks, with the spirituality of folklore drifting throughout. Beautiful!
Rather than something to slam into a DJ set, this is a fine record that distills the musically fascinating side of electric folklore.

"Federico is one of the most versatile musicians in Buenos Aires. A rare drummer and producer with a real sense for original percussion rhythm patterns and melody. This album is like a crystallization of his musical curiosity and his experience collaborating with musicians all over the world — it draws you into a hallucination where you can't tell magic from reality, and offers a glimpse of the secrets of enchanting rhythm."
(Pedro Canale a.k.a. Chancha Vía Circuito) (Original Japanese text by Shhhhh)
