Mexican label Duro Label is preparing for a new sonic journey with the return of one of its most cherished figures, Madrid's Álvaro Cabana. His new EP, "Indian Prototype", is an exploration of rhythms rooted in the wisdom of groove and the most influential sounds of the nineties and two thousands, without yielding an ounce to nostalgia.

Álvaro Cabana, an active figure in the Madrid electronic scene since the late '90s and owner of the Rotten City label (home to artists like Red Axes, Curses, Eden Burns, and DC Salas), delivers an EP that stands as a testament to his fidelity to his roots and his constant evolution.

The journey kicks off with "Proto", a track imbued with an early progressive essence. Deep basslines intertwine with expansive melodies and solid rhythms, creating psychedelic atmospheres that invite you into an introspective, mysterious, and energetic dance.

Following this is "Tipo", a subtle nod to Underworld. Here, acidic and resonant synthesizers take over the dancefloor, propelled by drums and rhythms designed to unleash euphoria. Lysergic vocals add a hypnotic layer, further immersing you in its danceable energy.

Finally, the EP culminates with "India In Us (UK Mix)", a powerful collaboration with his Argentine compadre residing in Bogotá, Julian Sanza (half of legendary projects like Silver City and 2020 Vision Soundsystem). This track is an ode to more "UK" and "two-thousands" sonorities, featuring booming basslines and frenetic melodies that invite total surrender on the dancefloor.

"Indian Prototype" is a statement of intent from Álvaro Cabana, a release crafted for DJs, diggers, and lovers of the rave sound.
