Diegese is Entropia-Entalpia new release, a project by Matheus Câmara, multi-instrumentalist and producer from Recife based in São Paulo. Resident of the Mamba Negra party and currently a member of the group Teto Preto, the artist performs in a live set format with a diverse setup, including samplers, synths and drum machines, as a constant presence in the alternative scene of Brazilian electronic music. Presenting a complex scene, permeated with nuances and subtleties, in Diegese, the artist builds a pleasant and at the same time bucolic ambience, a reflective and contemplative ambiguity. Subtle and counter-intuitive elements coexist in relative harmony, giving drama to an experimental and minimalist journey. Cena 1, which opens the EP, brings acoustic instruments sounding freely in the studio, unpretentiously as in a jam session. The piano and the percussion contrast with saturated, robotic, bass-driven voices that sustain the track's density. Occasional textures and noises participate in the ambiance that, from cassette to tube amplifiers, adds depth to the soundscape. Cena 7 follows the path opened by the first track and adds shattered drums, breakbeat, jungle and drum'n'bass references, in a groove that transports the narrative’s ambience to a dancefloor atmosphere. With discreet modulations and a present distorted synth, the harmonies refer to his background as a guitarist. The remix signed by São Paulo producer Nørus uses a slow beat as time that converses with the subtle chords of the piano creating a dense and spatial groove. The dsrptv crew's remix reaffirms the label's identity, presenting a granular ambience in the midst of a density of liquid textures, highlighting the different elements that run through the work through pauses and breaths necessary for the narrative.
