VA – Club Coco: New Dimensions In Latin Music [CC001]

Club Coco: New Dimensions in Latin Music compilation, curated by Coco María, marks the first release on her own label and serves as a sonic portrait of what Latin music can become when it’s guided by intuition rather than labels. Eleven tracks open the windows and cross continents as effortlessly as changing a song. Here, Neapolitan synthesizers coexist with digital cumbias, voices whisper from within the groove, and rhythms invite movement – without urgency or pretense. This selection isn’t defined by a genre but by a feeling: that of someone dancing with an open heart and keen ears. Each track is a postcard from a corner of the world, and also a love letter to rhythm and the emotions it stirs. From Bogotá to Naples, passing through Lima, Amsterdam, and New York, this compilation offers a journey where past and future brush against each other in the present moment. Club Coco doesn’t aim to define a sonic truth, but to invite listeners to discover new ways of hearing and feeling.

Whodamanny – Placebo / Loca Loca [PRD1027]

After launching his own record label “Biloba,” Raffaele Arcella, aka Whodamanny, returns to Periodica with a limited-edition double tracker infused with unmistakable Italo-disco vibes and a Latin touch. Placebo and Loca Loca deliver rhythm with depth, reminding us how vacations can feel like a fleeting illusion of escape from reality—and how much nostalgia lingers in the memories of summer nightlife.
