After the electroclash adventure that was 'Le Miroir EP' in 2021, the Madrid duo Mechudo returns to SEEKING THE VELVET and surprises us with the release of 'Unfamiliar', a rough, visceral and intense EP that reflects this period of instability and change that we are currently experiencing.
The five tracks on 'Unfamiliar' navigate between IDM ('LaMDA'), dark reggaeton ('Malos Pasos'), electro ('Automatic' or "Turn on your plane mode") and techno ('Cancellation').
The release is accompanied by the remix of the Sevillian duo CLOON, who submerge us in a tide of syncopated rhythms and that hypnotic vibe that characterises them to take the original track to an atmosphere of mystery and darkness.
The release comes close to the sounds of artists like The Hacker, Umwelt or Kelly Lee Owens.
