DJ Pippi - Bocadillos Variados mp3 download

BORZOTA

Though DJ Pippi has been on the White Isle scene since at least the early 80s, as far as I know this is his first album length offering. And the music on the 2xLP lives up to the legendary status of its creator. The hits come early and quick, with highlight “Crystal Palpita” dropping a slightly dark break, moody bassline, sea-shanty accordion refrains, and sunset synths, all evoking a humid mediterranean night. Elsewhere, the two collaborations with Tuccinelli shine: “Make U Smile” is loungey exotica featuring aquatic steel drums, string synths, and a beat poetry-esque spoken word piece. And “Artificial Soul” builds off a downbeat tribal house rhythm, adventurous bass, melancholic acoustic guitar, smokey electric piano and clusters of accordion ambiance. Another highlight is “Windchime” as it combines 90’s progressive synths, floating angelic vocals loops, chilled out jazzy funk rhythms, new-age piano, and a trancey drop out with cut-up vocal samples. The rest of the double album travels through Chic-y guitar funk, echo guitar-led reggae, and dubby R&B…a true Ibizan journey. - The Sun Lounge
