Following quickly on from the fiery 'Ritmo Caliente', CDMX-based duo INVT continue to re-skin the bones of dembow and kuduro with fleshy garage and dubstep sounds on "GAZEBO". RIYL Nick León, DJ Haram or AMAZONDOTCOM.
Miami-raised production duo INVT have spent the last few months releasing more essential hybrid club material than most issue in a lifetime. Their concept is to make important connections between Latin music and hard swung club styles (particularly from within the hardcore continuum) - in their own words "exploring the connection between dembow, garage, dub, minimal and dubstep." They do this by crafting hard-swung anodized bangers that don't so much pick a side as merge their influences, sweeping up funky, kuduro and 2-step modalities almost by accident. Their use of speed garage tropes is most impressive, capturing the metallic timestretch magic of the mid-'90s on 'KOMODO', 'PATADAS' and 'CARRISALILLO' and retaining the swing but shifting the percussion into cauterized woodblock realms.
'BIOMA' and 'MAQUILA' are more upfront with the dembow shuffle, but still manage to simmer the same speed garage flexes, encasing robotic shoutouts beneath alternate beat sequences. It's smart to the point of being studied - almost like an academic examination of hybrid club forms, produced with an ear for detail but without losing the hyper-engineered dancefloor momentum that keeps everything moving fwd.
