This is the first record l listened to today, back to reality. Between the two tracks, they collectively sound just like a crazy combination of various parts House, Techno, and Rave. Whatever. It’s exciting and sounds brilliant. What this record may lack in subtlety, it makes up for in being blatant. It’s not so much

Let’s start with the premise that good music is simply that. Designed to sound vintage via its use of samples combined with appropriate live instrumentation the result remains resolutely emotional at any given age.

You could say this record is all about the warmth of compassion. It also feels like sunshine rays or a night out dancing as it’s very much about rhythm, hot or otherwise. Resolutely musical, defiantly soulful but either way this likewise plays simply for the pleasure of it all. Rituals explores a fusion of styles

Dudas bites hard. Feels like a mystery unfolding. Sounds like music should in the upcoming story of 2024. Deep yet pulsing with soulful inquiry, meaningful in a very real sense.
