2016 release. Acclaimed Italian pair Deardrums, aka Bottin and Leo di Angilla, present their adventurous debut album on 2MR. The 13 track LP is a continuation of their analog-heavy and inventive synth style as showcased on their EPs to date which have received support from the likes of Laurent Garnier and Chloe and covers plenty of musical ground with great aplomb. African influences, tin pot percussion, and scorched synths all bring a real sense of Savannah heat to proceedings on cuts like "Mami Wata" and there is a sense of tribalism in the tightly programmed drums and claps of "Mayan Machine" that really stands this one apart. Authentic and unique throughout, this is a brilliant LP that is hard to categorize but easy to love thanks to it's constant evolution and wide sphere of sonic influences.
