El Pato Electronico presents a seamless, commanding, and dynamic collection; fusing the cutting-edge spirit of Takeshi Muto’s vast sonic landscape into an unyielding force of auditory abstraction.
A dynamic tapestry of revitalized sonic exposure
El Pato Electronico emerges as a spellbinding 28-piece amalgamation, seamlessly blending Takeshi Muto’s collaborations, remixes, and his own tracks, from a handful of Schematic releases—as well as adjacent labels including: Isophlux, Defunkt, Touched Music, Atomisk, Sonic Soul, In Vitro, Nature, Rice And Beans, and Beta Bodega—into a dynamic tapestry of revitalized sonic exposure. These “flipped and squashed” pieces traverse an array of found sounds, infectious rhythms, distorted electro, breaks, and the very pulse of old-school IDM and experimental electronic music with tinges of gritty minimal techno. Drawing from a vast array of releases accumulated over several years, Romulo Del Castillo‘s unshakable obsession with the strange and captivating realms of electroacoustic, industrial, and hypnotic soundscapes weaves a timeless, mind-bending foray through pixelated realms that are always well-suited for general-purpose audio work.
The compilation features an eclectic ensemble of audio architects, including, Joe Lentini, Cayos, Beta Bodega Coalition, Tomoroh Hidari, Hearts of Darknesses, Ghostwerk, Josh Kay—Del Castillo’s longtime collaborator as Phoenecia—Panic Bomber, Jean Jacques Perrey, Cosmic Pocket, Jacuzzi Boys, Kamoefleer Wapen (Vidrio vs. Gosub), Brook Chills, Coral Morphologic, Wilder Gonzales Agreda, and more.
In sum, El Pato Electronico presents a seamless, commanding, and dynamic collection; fusing the cutting-edge spirit of Takeshi Muto’s vast sonic landscape into an unyielding force of auditory abstraction. A barrier field unto itself, each track propels forward with relentless energy, never pausing to glance back, always shifting and transforming with every beat. A masterwork of surreal electronics, whose brilliance remains untouched by time.
