The opening seconds of LET’S DO IT are an absurd lightning-fast slap flourish that’s impossible to follow, a blur of notes that gone before you’ve processed it and from then on it’s bass-fronted funk in its most audacious form, with slap lines bursting with melodic content and horns that anchor the groove with bold, memorable lines before Vincen Garcia explodes in another torrent of flamboyant ghost notes.

Music this virtuosic rarely has so much personality, but VIVACE feels like something Ace Ventura would throw on while getting dressed for work. It’s sun-drenched, playful, and ridiculous with a tempo range that runs from fast to very fast to absolutely outrageous. APRIETA 2.0 might be in 7/8, but at this velocity it’s hard to tell, the band sounding like they’re operating on pure faith as Garcia plays like Mario with a mushroom power-up bouncing off everything in sight. MELATONINA leans further into the slapping with remarkable control and subtle ghost notes that turn the bass into something percussive without ever sounding messy. Despite the speed the playing is incredibly precise, often soft and controlled with a delicacy to the attack that prevents it from becoming a brute force, and the horns deserve enormous credit with tight, punchy melodies that are an integral part of the rhythm section. The sole vocal cut NEW HOME introduces a warm moment of shared joy amid the fireworks, whilst JET LAG is cartoonish in its speed, sounding like Sonic the Hedgehog with a hundred rings. PARÍS feels like the band took a deep soul groove and simply doubled the tempo, KEEP CALM offers a finger-picked palette cleanser, and PUNK FUNK closes the record at breakneck pace in a final testament to the band’s absurd tightness. Music this obsessed with speed rarely has this much humour and heart.
