Fuzz Sagrado Release Digital The Mushroom Park / In Her Garden EP
Having just seen this email come in about 10 minutes ago as a Bandcamp notification, I can’t help but smile as Brazil-based solo artist Christian Peters — the lone party responsible for the fullness of sound that’s wrought in Fuzz Sagrado, also formerly guitarist/vocalist in Samsara Blues Experiment when he lived in Berlin — requests forgiveness for a “slightly chaotic release policy.” It is easy to appreciate such a thing in the spirit of, “hey, sometimes music just happens, so here’s some.” I like that.
The first two songs are remasters from Fuzz Sagrado‘s 2022 album, A New Dimension (review here), which both sound pretty fantastic, actually. You might say they have new dimension. Wonder if Peters is kicking around updating the master for the whole record for a subsequent pressing. The following three tracks filling out the name-your-price five-songer were included on the CD edition of A New Dimension, recorded over a period of two years, the last of them rawer in its fuzz and construction, though it’s notable that it features vocals, which Fuzz Sagrado‘s first public outing, 2021’s self-titled (review here), pointedly pulled away from.
It was also recorded in Berlin, which distinguishes it from the rest of the project’s output to-date, but The Mushroom Park / In Her Garden is something of a hodge-podge and you haven’t checked out A New Dimension yet, maybe hit that up first. But because you’re cooler than I am and I assume you’ve already got that, I thought this would be one to share. Again, it’s name-your-price, so the barrier to entry is what you make it.
