Círculo --- 2019

CR 050 TRIBU „Circulo“ Bochum based Clostridium Records and Lima’s new label Catrina Records are proud to announce the exclusive, worldwide vinyl release of Peruvian Shamanistic Psychedelic Shoegaze duo TRIBU's debut album, Círculo. TRIBU was formed in late 2016 by singer multinstrumentist Yazmín Cuadros and Richard Nossar of (Don Juan) Matus fame in the archaeological monument of Chavín de Huantar, a place which was the administrative and religious center of the Chavín culture, built and occupied approximately between 1500 and 300 AC. The album, which earned record of the year accolades in Peruvian underground and mainstream media, was originally issued in late 2018 via Catrina Records, only on CD format, making this the first time the album's available worldwide in an analog format. The LP will be a limited hand numbered edition of 300 ( 2 x 150 !! ) copies and pressed on 180g high quality vinyl. in my shop : !! *** 160 x yellow-green-marbled / ClostridiumRecords *** !! ( & 140 x translucent Green / Catrina Records ) "THIS ONE" !!! handnumbered, including an A 3 – insert and a 15 x 15cm card „There is an awful lot to process on Círculo, the debut album from Peruvian experimentalists Tribu, as the record digs into native instrumentation and folk influences, psychedelia, progressive rock and minimalist atmospherics, all the while employing a wide range of guests around the core multi-instrumentalist/vocalist duo of Richard Nossar (Matus) and Yazmin Cuadros. The material ranges from the modern to the ancient, and as in “Todos los Jaguares (Canto para Yana),” finds itself digging into chanting in ceremonial fashion, not so much cult ritual as communion with something beyond the self through music, which I’m pretty sure is how music was invented in the first place. So kudos. Roots psych, maybe? (theobelisk.net/obelisk/tag/tribu)
