Christoph El Truento Downbeat | Electronica | Leftfield 2 Artikel

Clocking in at 21 songs, LWMP18 is an astonishing investigation of the power and potential of juke and footwork music, as re-imagined through the lens of an antipodean artist looking at the world both online and from a significant geographical distance. Interlacing footwork song structures and rhythms with elements of jazz, soul, baile funk, and R&B, it’s a unique take that could only really come from the ends of the Earth.

Christoph El Truento’s debut album, "What We Used To Know", is born of change and confusion, and sounds utterly incredible for it. The deeply talented 24-year-old New Zealander started writing back in 2011 at the time his son was born. Tired fatherhood, personal upheaval and artistic indecision would actually help show Christoph a clear path towards completing the record – a transcendant sweep of synths, samples, organic instrumentation and window ledge field recording that gently reveals new layers of sonic texture and emotion to the listener.
