IBERIAN DROPS NEW 'GOLDO STATE EP' BY VENEZUELAN BEATMEISTER CARDOPUSHER

What would happen if Dâm-Funk and Boddika raised a child together, who would later go to school with Krystal Klear and Ossie, finally ending up working behind the counter of a vinyl record store with Addison Groove and Ed DMX? Fans of Venezuelan born and Barcelona based Cardopusher shouldn't be very surprised to find out that the bass chameleon has changed colors once again, this time channelling the powerful influence of the widely-respected Rephlex label (namely the work of Aphex Twin, DMX Krew, Luke Vibert and Astrobotnia) to create the full-on electro flavored retro-rumpshaker that is 'Goldo State EP'.

Cardopusher harnesses the raw power of historic analog drum machines like the Roland TR-707 and 606 to create an acid-laden hardcore trip through 80's groove territory, complete with the indispensable bass punch and catchy melodic synth work. "Goldo" kicks off on the A side with a might dose of 707 drum attitude and melodies that are guaranteed to make seasoned ravers smile, complete with the gut-shaking bass stabs that just beg to be heard on a loud soundsystem. On the flip side we can find "We Run This State" and "Body Slam", two tracks that take us further into 80's territory, placing the listener inside of the hedonistic mindset of those long-gone hardcore warehouse parties.

Being the true explorer of the globalized bass phenomenon that he is, Cardopusher delivers a worthy follow up to his latest album 'Yr Fifteen Minutes Are Up', released by Tigerbeat6, as well as the latin madness of "Tu Bizcochito", released by Enchufada as part of their successful 'Hard Ass Sessions' series. File Iberian Records' 'Goldo State EP' next to the likes of Addison Groove and Ed DMX.
