After delivering an electrifying remix of Folgar & Chumbita's Meltdown in late 2024, Portuguese producer Vini Pistori returns to Kiosk ID with 'Life'-a four-track EP that threads technical sophistication and suspended emotion into a sprawling brand of hypnotic, floor-focused energy. Drawing on personal memory, Life reads like an audio diary-intensely textured, lushly composed, and grounded in a powerfully human sonic philosophy.

'The Green Tree' is a lush, atmospheric groover. Built around a lively bassline and rustling found-sound percussion, the opener progressively transforms quivering pulses and wondersome chord progressions into a melodic flurry of energy, ever sharper and more electric. Named after a beloved tree in his partner's family home, The Green Tree quietly pulses with emotional gravity-lush, alive, and becoming.

'Underneath Waters' dives into a shimmering ocean of resonant percussion and ethereal melody. Anchoring the track with a stripped-down, effective groove, Vini Pistori channels an orchestra of soft, echoing bells and otherworldly whale calls. Melancholic and beautifully vibrant, Underneath Waters delivers a throbbing groover that supercharges the listener's imagination.

With 'Tenebroso', Pistori ventures into darker territory. Taut and industrial, the track pulses with mangled bells, eerie LFOs, and nightmarish synth flickers. Darkly oscillating across tightly wound, cerebral groove structures, Tenebroso unfolds a masterclass on the interplay of tension and relief.

On the closing track, 'Relief,' Pistori fully opens the emotional aperture. A carpet of oscillating saws glides warmly across shaker-led percussion and softly rolling toms. Bursting with hope and clarity, Relief is a deep sonic exhale-a shimmering anthem of presence, peace, and letting go.

Across Life, Vini Pistori fuses organic and synthetic textures, weaving deeply personal stories into immersive and highly danceable soundscapes. The result is an emotive EP rooted both in the serene stillness of a tree and the murky depths of the unknowable ocean-a delicate balancing act that makes Life all the more compelling.
