Harmonica by Lucefora

The latest release on Madloch’s Sound Avenue imprint welcomes Lucefora back to the label for a brand new EP. Gustavo Gabriel Gonzalez aka Lucefora first appeared on the Belgian imprint in August of 2017 with a contribution to the label’s critically acclaimed ‘Correlation’ series. Now following the release of his debut album on ICONYC, Lucefora finds his way back to Sound Avenue with ‘Harmonica’.

Known for his sonic versatility, Lucefora is equally adept at crafting deep, poignant creations as he is peak time melodic bombs. The EP’s title track sits closer to the former with it’s deep, dulcet tones, organic percussion and muted pianos. Undeniably soulful it’s a ten minute journey of free flowing textures, astral effects and layered beats; ultimately leading to a second act of shimmering overlays, before melting down to a delicate sizzle, as the warm groove returns for a heartfelt finale.

The companion piece ‘Renaissance’ while being a touch more progressive, carries a similar design profile to its predecessor. Brilliantly produced it’s radiant melodies and blissful arps play off a warm, enticing foundation perfectly. Reflective in tone, it’s emotive prowess is undeniable with glistening arps and pulsating rhythms intertwining for a powerful first act. Ever evolving, the narrative shifts with the second act as the luminous themes get washed away, transferring energy into a classy drop.

Two stunning productions from Lucefora which not only make for a hugely successful return to Sound Avenue but also further cements that he is an artist most certainly operating at a creative peak.
