Eso Es

Description

Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist Gregg Kowalsky returns to Mexican Summer with *Eso Es*, his second release for the label and first album since 2017's *L’Orange L’Orange*. Representing a significant creative leap for the composer, *Eso Es* unfolds as a hypnotic journey into Gregg's inner world, imbued with a depth of emotion and vulnerability rarely encountered in electronic music. Gregg Kowalsky first came to prominence in the mid-2000s as part of the thriving Bay Area experimental music scene. Returning to his childhood fascination with synths and diving headfirst into the joys of the unknown attached to experimentalism, the album was composed and recorded almost entirely on a Yamaha DX-7 synth and sequencer. The resulting shimmering synth lines and intoxicating rhythms are imbued with the joyful naiveté that often characterizes the early years of an artist's practice. *Eso Es* marks Gregg Kowalsky's return as a quiet force in electronic and electroacoustic music and represents a new high point in an already remarkable career.
