Leading UK/Latin club hybridiser Florentino hits nexx levels on his most prominent drop to date - five killer cuts of mutable dembow diversity peppered with guest chops by DJ Python, Shygirl, Baby Cocada, BAMBII & KD One
Since his early affiliations with club incubator Swing Ting, thru the Sangre Nueva project with Kelman Duran and DJ Python, to sharing stages with Skrillex, and his own Club Romantico label and club night, Manchester’s Florentino has cooked up a hugely distinctive sound over the past decade that bends his Latin heritage to the keenest UK dancefloor pressure. ‘Kilometro Quinze’ catches him binding his family ties to Bogotá, Columbia, with the demands of a regular DJ schedule between Manchester and the rest of the world, in five diamond-cut variations scaling from the serpentine reggaeton of ‘Constrictor’ to the dembow junglism of ‘Con Luz’ via some of the sharpest club dynamos of 2023. It’s the sound of a producer fully in control of his sound and properly flexing it.
Arriving at the point when Florentino productions are almost instantly recognisable, not just for their idents but a precision-tooled steeliness and ductility that crisply defines whatever he turns a hand to, he’s really showing off on the ‘Kilometro Quinze’ EP’. We hear him contouring late ‘90s tech-step D&B pads into the hardest, sexiest dembow electro-techno on ’Sicaria’ with DJ Python, and balancing the coiled, uptempo thrust with Baby Cocada’s coos on ‘Hysterika’, before linking Shygirl on the self-explanatory ‘Pressure’ ratchet of acidic UKF/dembow to draw the finest line between XL’s multi-cultural early ‘90s rave roots with the bleeding edge of prevailing club music from the global south 30 years later.
Big ones.
