                          ............................

             The latest release on Astral Records welcomes Bruno Longhitano 
             back to the label for his debut EP. Hailing from Argentina, the 
             Rosario resident first emerged in 2019 with releases via 
             Addicted Music and Us and Them Records. Instantly recognized for 
             his haunted minimalism and deep dark melodies, Bruno would go on 
             to record projects for Pursuit and Running Clouds across 2020 
             and 2021. Also calling Astral Records home, the Argentine made 
             his debut last year with a contribution to the label's popular 
             'Celestial' collection. Now returning for his first EP project, 
             Bruno presents a three-track showcase entitled 'States of 
             Essence'.

             Beginning with 'Gasify', Bruno has crafted one of his most 
             powerful productions to date. Led by a tough yet buoyant groove, 
             its ethereal nature proves to be compelling, with retro effects 
             and strong astral themes dominating a heady first act. Concise 
             at under a minute in length, the main break expands the 
             narrative with a display of pitch bending effects and icy 
             atmospheres eventually melting down into a drop of colourful 
             synth swagger.

             The second selection 'Solidify' follows suit with a greater peak 
             time presence as dark cavernous grooves lay the foundation for 
             swirling effects, clattering percussive arrangements and quirky 
             arps. Vaguely industrial, a stripped but tension building second 
             act perfectly preludes the main break, where a storyboard of 
             hopeful sonics gives way to spine tingling effects and a drop 
             that is both striking and timely.

             The release concludes with 'Burying Inside' which finds Bruno 
             taking a more introspective approach with spacey soundscapes 
             blanketing percolating lines and pulsating beats. Spanning over 
             a minute in length, the centrepiece bridges the gap between 
             cinematic tension and dancefloor drama, with rising tonal themes 
             and commanding drums eventually culminating in a striking drop 
             and hypnotic finale. It rounds out an excellent artist showcase 
             from Bruno Longhitano, who makes an impressive return to Astral 
             Records with 'States of Essence'
