Jose M. & TacoMan - Bad Poem EP
refused. welcomes some South American infusion to the roster with the addition of Columbian based duo Jose M. & Tacoman. The well-established duo present a fresh, funky 3-track EP titled “Bad Poem” out on Tuesday October 27th. Working with a number of different elements such as synth oscillators, strong percussions, pumping basslines and deep vocals, this EP is a recipe for epic dancefloor distortion. The EP has received incredible support from the likes of Blond:ish, Dubfire, and Richie Hawtin.
Growing up in a lively city such as Mendellin, Columbia, Jose M. & Tacoman have acquired a unique sound in their productions which tributes the culture and vivacity of their hometown. Together, Jose M. & Tacoman have evolved a sound that incorporates a little bit of deep, tech, house and disco to formulate atmospheric masterpieces that will trigger all your senses.
“Bad Poem”- while minimal in terms of the use of elements, the track has an in-your face groove that will be sure to move dance floors. The synth line and use of vocals throughout help move the track forward while the bass is pumping.
“Solstice”- has smooth filters which sweeps throughout the song to give the track a very organic feel. This is driven forward by the interplay between the kick and the subby baseline.
“Theorem” – the hi-hat and drum fills in the background give the track a very loose, almost jazzy quality. This is further enhanced but the vocal loop that is apparent throughout the track. The drone-y synth break is a very nice juxtopozition to the smoother elements of the song.
