Simina Grigoriu - Equanimity

Stream / Buy: https://kuukou.ffm.to/equanimity 'With Kuukou, Simina Grigoriu has laid out highly fertile soil from which countless artists from all around the globe have flourished - all coming together through a shared love of richly emotive and highly functional Techno. Next up - she steps back in herself, making her return home with a cut that typifies the label's ethos: a smart, lean sound brimming with masterfully measured energy. A raw, tribal groove unfolds with pattering drum skins and a tight, choked hi hat. Polyrhythms stack as the tension gradually ladders. Vocals ring out and the mood is set - tactile, mobile and seductive. Subaqueous synths colour the mid range with mystery, while each individual element nestles in a carefully carved space which gives the track intense, unfathomable depth. A faintly lick of dub runs through the work and what unfolds is a deep well of sound - a vortex in which ravers can lose themselves entirely.'
