Cristina Lazic and BRYZ both step up to remix
Spanish duo Los Suruba have done it all over the last 25 years, captivating dancers with their blend of House, Minimal, Electro, psychedelic, and deep vibes. They have established their own network of record labels, with almost 250 releases, Nazca being the latest addition. They’ve also released music on labels like Crosstown Rebels, Diynamic, and Get Physical and have been remixed by international artists such as Solomun, Adriatique, Clarian, and Okain. They describe their music as “Memories of the Future,” the motto of their brand Nazca.
As DJs, they’ve performed at the world’s best clubs and festivals, bringing their unique sound across the globe, holding residencies from Ibiza to London, and creating countless underground hits.
They are in top form once again with this latest journeying EP, where Los Suruba and their label Nazca return to vinyl releases, featuring two new remixers for this vinyl edition of the ‘+33 EP’.
Innovative opener ‘Dial Banger’ is a wonky house sound with wet claps and a gurgling bassline that gets ever more wild. It’s a playful cut that teases and pleases in equal measure as the low-slung grooves, string stabs, and unhinged leads keep dancers locked. ‘Elegancia La de Francia’ is a more experimental house affair with eerie synth leads and freaky filtered vocals, making a dark and menacing atmosphere. Warm melodies infuse the track with soul and make it perfect for the late-night hours.
First remixer Cristina Lazic launched her own label La Zic, earlier this year. It’s a platform that looks to uplift and mentor exceptional female talents next to the Italian’s own blend of minimal, deep and tech house sounds. Her fantastic take on ‘Elegancia la de Francia’ is stylish and stripped back with supple minimal drums and the muted synth sounds bubbling away over punchy kicks.
Romanian artist BRYZ has a refined minimal sound that has established him in the European scene over the last decade. He deals in intricate melodies, pulsating rhythms, and atmospheric textures on labels like Storytellers and Esente Records. His version of ‘Elegancia la de Francia’ is silky and deft, with sustained pads locking you into a trance while gurgling bass and trippy melodic motifs add great detail to the rolling minimal house grooves.
Los Suruba’s ’33 Vinyl EP’ comes on Nazca on November 15th, 2024.
