Description
Zoon van snooK - Cusco
'Cusco' is the lead single from Bristolian (by way of Barcelona) producer, Zoon van snooK's third long player: 10 beautifully woven tracks built around field recordings harvested in South and Central America in 2018.
The field recording used as the basis of the single being a Quechua tribal ceremony captured in the former Incan capital of Cusco, near the Peruvian Andes.
Foregoing his [un]usual experimental elec-trickery, the album 'Se·pa·ra·ción' sees snooK strip the solo piano tracks right back while still retaining his celebrated technique of building each song around the melody, rhythm and soundscape of far-flung field recordings.
The a-side to 'Cusco' is accompanied by a strikingly rarified reworking by Gilles Peterson affiliate: Kayla Painter (Brownswood, Future Bubblers).
