MASTERY, PRECISION AND LEGENDARY COMPOSITION – SANDY RIVERA RETURNS TO HIS BLACKWIZ ROOTSIt’s been five years since Sandy Rivera’s last studio album. In that time the NYC-born producer has committed the cardinal sin of music production – moved away from an incredibly successful formula and dared to dabble in a different genre altogether. The truth is Rivera has a history in underground music and progressive as long and as illustrious as his more commercial (but none the less genius) house discography. Delve into his past and you’ll unearth classic tracks such as Organised Noise 1 & 2, Flutes (Fade to Black), a favourite for Ricardo Villalobos, Exctasy, Abstract Collage, I Am The Drum, and Mysterious People. As 2010 moves us into a new decade, Rivera indulges his passion for the more minimal beats once more, to sublime effect.Indulge he does, but never at the expense of the music. What we get with The Blackwiz Farm is a crafted, honed, exquisite and precisely put together study in electronic composition. From the deep, twisted, chugging finesse of REDIAL to the ticking rhythms of Seclusion; the throbbing bass and panning electronic instrumentals of Organised Noise 3 2010 to the subtle sample of Rivera’s classic opus Finally in Aurei 2 2010; The Blackwiz Farm is quite simply both elegant and masterful.
