This April, Get Physical will put out a second instalment of the essential Cocada compilation series that focusses on emerging talents in Brazil. But before that comes a third and final EP featuring tracks from the first edition, as remixed by Cioz and Tara Brooks.
First up, Italian Cioz reworks Hauy’s ‘Redpath.’ Cioz is a self-taught musician with a smooth and organic sound and holds a DJ residency at the Bauhaus Party. His version of the track is a deep and cathartic one, with wavy drums and molten melodic blips interacting to hypnotic effect. It’s a colourful, paired back but absorbing track to carry
you further into the night.
Tara Brooks then steps up and brings over a decade’s worth of experience that has seen her play BPM in Mexico, Envision in Costa Rica and Blue Marlin in Ibiza. Her global reputation comes from her uniquely human, soulful style that is showcased here on her version of Ossiam’s ‘When You Say My Name.’ It’s a driving and dynamic house track that has subtle astral ambiance and zoned out chords all sinking you deep into her
supple drums. These are two innovative versions of the still excellent originals and they perfectly pave the way for a much anticipated second edition of the Cocada series.
