Belgrade 12”

Following the excellent single-sided heater from Sharif Laffrey, Discos Capablanca is back in action once again with Odopt, previously only spotted on excellent Swedish label Born Free. The record opens up with the ominous, dramatic tones of “Belgrade”, all searing synth swells and bloated drums working towards some cinematic apocalypse scenario.

On the B-side, “Croque Trans Croque” has a cooler head but instead aims to unsettle with its off-key metal chimes atop a steady-ticking disco rhythm, and then “Rex Ingram” finishes the EP off with yet more surreal beatdowns that will send the party in a very interesting direction indeed.
