about

Umanzuki is the youngest act to emerge from the current Italian Occult Psychedelia milieu. What was born as some sort of exotic free-jazz combo with the Sonic Birds EP, quickly developed into Tropical Nature Of Tiaso, a 35 minute-long improvisation built upon minimal electronics, diluted sounds and reduced synthetic rhythm.
Porta, their newest effort, explores one more artistic metamorphosis. Focusing on a EP format the Florencebased trio has been able to shape the looseness of its previous creations and give birth to two skilfully crafted 8-miunte tracks.
With Porta meaning Door it is no surprise that we feel like entering a new zone here, where A side is one somehow refined and emproved version of paths already explored on Tropical Nature Of Tiaso, while the flipside opens to a new, almost club-oriented dimension.

Porta is out on 45rpm black 12” vinyl. Limited edition of 100, comes with free digital download code.
