According to Sabo, the latest release on Sol Selectas was inspired by a shared love of ’90s rave, but La Cougresa isn’t an exercise in copying past glories. Instead, the duo drops the tempo and, on the title track, put together an inspired break beat house affair. It eventually leads into a dreamy reverie, pushed along by a dark, pulsing bass. Is this a representation of the ‘vision quests’ that also inspired the release? Certainly, they seem possessed by a supernatural force on “Zoologico”, where layers of droning sound and shimmering synths push in over a rumbling rhythm. “Destination” meanwhile takes its cue more directly from early ’90s hedonism, with drugged out acid and ponderous vocals unravelling over heavy, dubby drums.
