nico lahs: freedom
Francisco Espregueira
The Italian producer Nicholas Loporchio, also known as Nico Lahs, has been in the house game for a fair number of years, having released a considerable number of reputable EP’s and played memorable sets in some of Europe’s best dancefloors. His first full-length drops via Detroit born/Beijing based Adeen Records - founded by Jason ‘Adeen’ Wilkins - and delves deep into the producer’s roots. Freedom encapsulates the use of an array of vintage analog and digital hardware, to give life in total freedom to Lahs’ own sound and trademark.
Following a five year hiatus, producing in the meantime under the Cosmic Garden alias, Lahs’ Freedom is the result of an unceasing and steady research. A blend of house with hip hop, downtempo, technoish sound choices are the base of this new project, inspired in Chicago and Detroit music heritage. Feel-good club music. The double LP is out in vinyl, via Adeen Records.
