Tosca
Some big postings coming on the foreign downtempo front starting with today's gem from Tosca, the G-Stone dynamic duo of Richard Dorfmeister + Rupert Huber. I've followed Dorfmeister and Huber since their days as Delhi 9 and after the tragic spilt of K & D (with Peter Kruder), when the pair dropped their first release as Tosca (the classic "Chocolate Elvis" 12"), I knew immediately that they'd take the mantle as the premier Viennese purveyors of the delicate dub. Their new record, J.A.C.comes out in a few months, but scissorkick landed a promo copy and of course you all get a teaser. The new record features collaborations with Earl Zinger, Valerie Ettienne and Austrian rock legend Stefan Hadik Wildner. All I can say about the new record is that fans of previous records Opera and Suzuki will be pleased. I especially enjoy the added emphasis on guitars throughout the entirety of the record. The posting for "Rondo Acapricio" is vintage Tosca, with a tight break, solid groove and more malty smoothness than a glass of Dubbel Bock on a spring Saturday.
