Scotia, Hudson Valley USA’s high priestess of acid*, returns to Chinotto Records with Lithophonix, an EP featuring two new originals and remixes by Octo Octa and DJs Pareja of Scotia's Tarocco Singles Club release from last June. Scotia's star has been deservedly on the rise. Between DJ sets at underground dance institutions Club Toilet, Honcho, System Activate, The Bunker, and Get Wrecked and Carry, grassroots off-grid raves, and releases on LA-4A’s label Delft, Acid Camp, and The Bunker, is there anything she can't do?
This record, like everything else, is about sex and death. A diptych of earthly life and the celestial void, side A starts with the thrashy funky horny title track, where the urgency of oversaturated, punchy 808 drums betrays a sensual bassline and vocal samples. Its counterpart "Timbale Kosmische" is a portrait of what lies beyond the veil: an expansive groove gurning toward the infinite.
For the remixes, Buenos Aires underground stalwarts DJs Pareja take “Chicka Stick” to peak time by way of driving 303 and bright synth work, their restraint building the tension dancers crave. The EP's closer, living legend/community icon Octo Octa’s "Gay Power Remix" of “Sylvia Rivera,” is a meticulous all-hardware rework that spends a minute paying its respects to the original version before gliding off into the realm of signature production work, breaks and all, with samples of Rivera’s speeches.
150 records, all a different color and all running at 45pm, have been pressed by our faves New Orleans Record Press and will be mailing out a few weeks before the digital release.
