Javier Carballo sat down for a chat with us ahead of his new release on Black Wood recordings, the Morning Vibe EP.
The Black Wood imprint is new to the scene, having been founded this year by two friends of Carballo’s. This will be its second release, with David Gtronic’s “Kryptoo” dropping last month. Carballo is keeping up his brilliant form with ‘Morning Vibe’ and he talked to us about the release, the label and much more.
Anyone who’s followed Javier Carballo through the years will know that the Spanish producer isn’t the sort of man to make boring music. On the contrary, his subtle but beguiling cuts are always notable for their groovy wares, and from that perspective along his inclusion in the Vatos Locos camp alongside the likes of Hector is a hugely merited one. For his latest release, the Gran Canaria native crops up on the emerging Black Wood imprint. Already making great strides recently courtesy of David Gtronic’s debut EP for the label, the Morning Vibe EP solidifies the label’s reputation as ones to watch.
Up first is the sounds of the title track. A skeletal track with but a few elements, it’s a clever example of how to do more with less. By the time the sporadic acid lines come into play, the listener is already yearning for more, with the track’s deep undercurrent seeing us to out with some flair.
