Description
about the cassette
YOTO’s work – with its foundation of voice, guitar and percussion – is rooted in South American music tradition. Through sampling and synthesis, these base elements are cannibalised and re-baked to form YOTO’s own brand of hyper-folk bricolage.
Like fellow Argentinian boundary-pushers Aylu and Vic Bang, YOTO’s view zips with an ever shifting focus. Wry gear changes, contorted scraps and knee-wiggling tempos are underpinned by his vocal – which at times resembles a synthesizer, and others a crunchily harmonic choir.
The results evoke a microbiome of ecstatic fermentation. No surprise, then, that Levure is a love letter to Sandoval’s favourite childhood bakery.
