MBR413: Leo Guardo - Big Fish (EP)
Release Date: 18.12.2020

MBR413 trails the watercourse choreographed by Italy-born and Melbourne-based
DJ/Producer, Leo Guardo and narrated by three eloquent African vocalists. Interfusing
innovative techno elements with deep house soulfulness and tribal groove, Big Fish ruptures
into turbulent waters, basking in the invigorating currents of sonic tides. On A-Side,
Bayamememza starts off with an inquisitive build up, growing more tense as coarse percussion
amass friction. Outpouring grief and empathy into a poignant aria, Tabia’s heartfelt invocation
peals aloft tribal elements, grasping on to the groundedness of house and casting hope in
euphoric melodies. A winsome bassline rolling through subtle inclines and climaxes cradles
Andiswa’s soul-riveting vocals in Sebenza. Compelling lyrics that express the value of
perseverance are the force stretching the 6:58 minute track taut, upending the pendulum of
triumphs and setbacks through ethnic soundscapes and synthetic swells. Wrapping up the
saga, Adile Mbili expels gut-felt exhilaration in an homage to the goddess of fertility and the rain
ritual in her honor. Softening nuanced percussion with tender piano notes, Wenomkhubulwane
gently rides on earthy instrumentals, locking place in locomotive groove. But it doesn’t think
twice, hopping on euphoric harmonies at the right chords up, to escalate into sublime
dimensions.

One of THE main protagonists since day one, there is nobody else around, laying foundations on this level and pushing boundaries like MoBlack Records and its founder Mimmo Falcone (MoBlack). The Italian who lived in Ghana for ten years keeps surprising the RISE team as much as the scene with those cutting edge releases and a repertoire that shouts "classic" every second minute. by RISE - ... more
