Silencio EP by Agustin Giri, Last Men On Earth

After a string of releases that cemented their position as upstart alchemists of richly textured,
forward-thinking club music, Argentinian artists extraordinaire Last Men on Earth and
Agustin Giri continue their trajectory with a delicate juxtaposition of organic overtones and
shuddering electric contortions. ‘Silencio’ delivers a unique blend of hypnotic Electronica with
three originals and two re-imaginations by Elif and Mila Stern for Kiosk ID no. 029.


‘The Sirens’ submerges the listener in a glistening ocean of bells, ricocheting drum patterns,
and silky ambience. Darkly muted breakdowns imbue the track with cinematic power in a
bold amalgamation of stripped rumble and blissful tranquility.

Setting cycling polyrhythmics to a heavy acoustic breakbeat, ‘Silencio’ is an artful nod to the
threesome’s roots in Experimental Rock. Erratically looping square waves, eerie
resonances, and mangled synth sweeps weave a multichromatic tapestry of coalescing
harmonics that channel a razor-sharp soundscape.

On ‘Usefool,’ the trio channels a frenetic sense of volatility through boundless eclecticism.
Deep chords, subdued acid lines, eruptive vocal chops, and a booming Electro beat
effortlessly cross moods and genres, merging into a choppy, deceptively deep block party
smasher.

Mila Stern’s rendition strips the original
to a minimal throb, deftly supercharging its resonating wavetable aesthetics with pitching
metallic salvos and cascading bells.

Elif delivers a thundering four-to-the-floor remix that
transforms the original's sweeping eruptions into high-energy bursts with ravey, floor-focused
joie de vivre.

There’s something quietly revolutionary about how Last Men on Earth and Agustin Giri draw
on every sound at their disposal and end up with a strikingly musical and harmonic release
that doesn’t feel overdone. ‘Silencio’ is boldly refreshing, captivatingly musical, and a
pioneering achievement at the bleeding edge of electronic music.
