Opening Melorama Música’s curated broadcast for 2026, the imprint proudly presents FJL’s new ‘Rider’ EP. A pulsating three-tracker, the rising Argentine’s latest delivery explores what lies beyond traditional confines with distinct curiosity in a way that feels intimate, yet expansive as ever.
Initiating transmissions with ‘Massive Drift’, our voyage begins as a throbbing low end makes its way across chugging hi-hats, uncovering quivering stabs that amplify its cavernous signature. With the groove locked in, FJL unleashes an electrical storm that reaches acid hues as it contorts in strange and captivating ways, leading to a nebulous maelstrom where particles dissolve before reconfiguring themselves for a new beginning.
Moving on, the Rosario-based producer presents us with ‘Rider’, an aptly named creation that takes us on a shimmering fever dream. Inside it, a restless bassline navigates the streets while textured percussive patterns add a layer of depth, before colliding with a solar storm that latches on as effervescent melodic shards, creating an irresistible sequence that never deviates from its inevitable horizon.
Our final echo comes in the form of the ever-preplexing ‘3 Days To Go’. A unique hybrid, FJL’s last destination on this package is a rousing and intriguing proposal as we venture into headier terrains. Operating deeper underground, heavy-handed drumming takes center stage as primal patterns provide a solid foundation for guttural synthetic swells and ebbing waves to wash over the piece in a part ritualistic, part futuristic seance.
From cavernous lows to radiant highs, ‘Rider’ stakes FJL’s claim as a fearless explorer of the unknown, guiding us through terrains both hypnotic and untamed.
