Libertas

Order now! Mp3s & jpegs

A lovely surprise here by Luca Duran (aka Look Like) who is following up a series of stellar EPs with his first solo album. He embarks on a wide-ranging electronic journey throughout 'Libertas', an intrepid sonic exploration of the concepts of freedom and independence, two hallmarks of his already diverse studio work. The uncategorizable Swiss-Colombian producer is releasing his debut album after a period of creative metamorphosis, during which Duran's musical output evolved from the dextrous house, techno & electro of earlier releases under his original production moniker Look Like. From summer 2019, Luca began releasing solely under his own name and his style has now grown beyond the traditional dancefloor genres of electronic music to encompass influences from post-punk and IDM. Seeking to sonically explore and reflect on concepts of liberty and autonomy, Duran, like all of us, was soon faced with a lockdown of a very different kind. The result is 'Libertas', an extraordinary album written and produced across 2020 and under equally extraordinary, world-changing circumstances. Engrossing, imaginative and political in the tradition of electronic music's innovators, 'Libertas' mixes Latin philosophy and futurist techniques in order to create something distinct, future-facing and never less than thoughtful. Beautiful and versatile release!!
