To Ricciardi - Azazou (The Oddness Remix)

Order: Lisbon based label Sururu Records welcomes the boss To Ricciardi for some sun kissed and Latin inspired house sounds that ooze class and come with an Anna Almani and The Oddness remix. To Ricciardi is a pioneer of the underground sound in Lisbon who has always led the scene from the front ever since the 90s. He has released a number of albums and projects under several aliases and always works with the most relevant labels. Here he makes his mark once more on his Sururu. Opener Azazou has shimmering synths and sleek, rolling drums that are peppered with percussion and light up by some superbly treated string sounds. Add in some chatting tribal vocals and you have a sure fire summer anthem for open air dancing. The Oddness remix slows things down and has upstate dub vibes, while the strings remain and take on a more laid back and languid feel. Last of all is Azazou (Anna Almani “2012“ Remix) is sped up and harder hitting. The drums are funky and the stabs are more rugged while the vocals are dreamy, delicate affairs for zoned out sessions. This is a standout new release from Sururu Record
