Shekuza – De Sica
(electronic stories through modular synthesis)

release date: 8. May 2019

Debut album by Shekuza (Miha Šajina) presents a fresh exploration of
unconventional electronic composition made exclusively with modular
systems for sound synthesis and sequencing. Electronic pulsating
landscapes are rooted in dancefloor electronic music but creating a
distance to a degree where they sound as independent compositions. The
ambience they are creating is abstract but rarely dark, it is more
sonicly and processually exploratory within continuous rhythmical
flow. With this release Shekuza presents a production direction by his
techno DJ alias with which he was moving the underground dance
audience for the last 10 years. At the same time it’s a new chapter of
genre-direction already pointed at with trio Ewok.

The record was premiered at Kamizdat Rentgen x ZARŠ event with
additional performances by Zergon (modular) and Warlord Chipmonk
(laptop). Complete video stream from the event is archived on Kamizdat
web page via YouTube (kamizdat.si/releases/de-sica/).
