Andrés Zacco, the Pergamino-born Argentine producer is not an unknown to the scene. His highly descriptive, funkily elusive, reduced yet very driving house sounds that are finely layered and always utterly tasteful in their composition have surfaced on labels as varied and renowned as Stock5, BPitch, Alphahouse, Esperanza and Traut Muzik. Andrés also releases on his own imprint, Greener, which features works by Lineas de Nazca, Kai-Maan and his dear friend Franco Cinelli to name a few involved.

As part of an exciting new wave of Argentinean sound producers, he, alone and together with studio partner Lucas Mari, manages to stun a receptive audience not only with the array of productions and remixes he has been releasing since 2006 but also with his gripping DJ sets.

His debut on AIRDROP is a well-paced three-tracker which stuns with its versatility and tasteful arrangements. The groove of the opener, the funnily named ‘Seated Hopping‘ grips you in the underbelly and shuffles you upside down with its deep, dubby flavor that will have you hopping on your seats in no time, the cherry on the icing being the dark, down-pitched vocals that haunt you on the rise.

‘Long Way‘ is a state of mind definitely not unknown to those in the know, and this time is virtually impossible to keep seated. Flurry filtered vocals warp in an out while the pitchy groove gains momentum, intensifying the mobilizing effects of the track immensely as you rise and shine to the infectious, stripped down, channeled disco groove.

The possibly most impressive work is the ‘Color Iva‘, a dubby, delayed, happily tripping track that dreamily unfolds its full narrative whilst growing and growing into a full-blown aural adventure, hypnotizing the listener with its sweet sounding frequencies. Zacco at his finest will have you gagging for more. Hold on tight!
