FUERA drop intoxicating ‘Mariposa’

Fuera are a special act likely to become a big part of your life once you venture into their realm, coined by labels like Warp as IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) in contrast to the wider used EDM, these three friends from Naples have been building something like a phenomenon across the entire boot of Italy bringing their unique fusion of rap, techno, and psychedelic punk aesthetics into explosive live shows across the peninsula, leaving clubbers, festival goers and everyone who sees or hears them pledging allegiance and not being quite the same ever again. As if an awakening has taken place. It feels like a cross between Fat White Family, Beastie Boys and The Prodigy all in their prime but with some of the most inspirational and intelligent productions not seen since early Aphex Twin.

The rest of Europe and the wider world beckons, and like butterflies reborn from the chrysalis with new life and new form, ‘Mariposa’ is the manifesto of Fuera’s new stylistic code in which experimental electronics, IDM and Ambient atmospheres mix with a catchy topline to tell their evolution.

An intro generated by an artificial intelligence tells this cry of luminous, unique catharsis, to always be “brillos radiantes en el jardín de la vida que nos espera”, which translates as “radiant sparkles in the garden of the life that awaits us.” From an unknown Spanish poem which conjures the feelings a Fuera show can bring, or just a drive in the country listening to their music. We’re not sure of their secret, but we’re definitely hooked.
