Welcoming a new artistic pairing to the Balance Music fold, Argentinean duo, Eichenbaum & Fede Pals have joined forces to create the sublime 'Labuntur EP'.
An artist immersed in the rock and jazz music culture of his Buenos Aires home, Andres Eichenbaum's move to New Zealand in 2013 has seen the Argentinean artist flourish in the dance music arena. A global performer in Central, South America, Japan and his adopted homeland, plus radio shows on Frisky Radio, Metrodance, and the Wildwood Podcast Series, Eichenbaum's prowess behind the decks is matched by a growing production portfolio and rising reputation. A debut release on Soundteller Records in early 2021 has been followed by a score of appearances on the likes of Dopamine White, Deepwibe Underground, and onedotsixtwo. Supported by a legion of high profile A list DJs, Sasha, Digweed, Cattaneo, and Warren have all played a part in promoting the Eichenbaum sound.
Another artist from the hotbed of Buenos Aires talent, Fede Pals made a name for himself in the capital, performing across the clubs of his hometown. Relocating to Mallorca, the Argentinean artist has also presided over a global touring schedule captivating audiences in Australia, New Zealand, Italy and Spain. In tandem, a production career has seen Fede Pals become a sought after figure after a late 2020 debut for Be Adult Music. Since then, his music has gone on to be signed for such esteemed imprints as Future Avenue, The Purr, and Forward Music with support from the likes of Mass Digital, Marcelo Vasami, and Hernan Cattaneo. The latter showing support on his weekly Resident show in November 2022.
Coming together for their Balance Music debut, 'Instabilis' is a seething progressive gem. Driven relentlessly forward with huge kick and hi hat urgency, a smooth arpeggio filters into sonic range as a modulated chord progression washes over the listener. Progressing with ease, new motifs emerge out of the evolving arpeggios before a spoken vocal sample appears at the breakdown alongside rising melodic patterns and pulsating white noise riser. Dropping back into the rhythmic collage of earlier movements, 'Instabilis' is redolent in club sensibility.
The title track immediately creates spine tingling emotion with its deep bass groove and intricate percussive arrangement. Forming the perfect rhythmic foundation, the stratified sonic layers of 'Labuntur' create a rich and powerful sonic landscape where arpeggios, pads and counterpoint motifs blend in seamless fashion to a stripped back breakdown. A filtered arpeggio then shines brightly in solo glory before the rhythmic precision and bass groove of earlier movements enters the fray once more in intoxicating fashion.
Through labours that have showcased talent in abundance, Eichenbaum & Fede Pals have created a musical diptych of passion, craft and technique in 'Labuntur'.
