Composer, multi-instrumentalist, and Bzzz Records artistic director Seb El Zin returns with "The Analog Mangrove", a five-track EP that blurs the boundaries between organic and digital worlds. Created over two years, this work combines minimal techno, psychedelia and tribal percussion to create a visceral sense of place – in El Zin’s swamp mangrove roots thrum with energy and machines corrupt in the humid air.
El Zin (who previously released on Berlin-based label Thisbe) says he is “following in the footsteps of artists such as William Burroughs, J.G. Ballard, and David Cronenberg, pushing the boundaries between the living and the machine.” The result is an EP, which is sometimes sensual - bordering on ASMR - sometimes raw and unsettling
