ELIAS LA FUENTE - MONERO

◈ Elias La Fuente. Monero Opens with a burst of brass-tinged funk, then a cocky bassline takes the wheel. Rhodes and organ shimmer underneath while the sub-bass does the real structural work. Around 128 BPM and already leaning hard. The 2-step shuffle enters with that classic MJ Cole-era swing, ghost rimshots sitting just off the grid. Tabla and analog synths layer into the polyrhythm until the groove starts to breathe on its own. Salsa rhythm cells cut through the footwork stutter like they always belonged there. By the chorus it's euphoric. The warmth of the organ, the punch of the kick, a distant vocal texture woven into the mix. This is UK garage lineage colliding with Chicago juke and coming out swinging. Soulful, hypnotic, deeply physical. ──────────── ▶ Tune in on UXRZONE. The synthetic metaradio network. [UXR-XR-26-THS-QMJV4]
