2021 repress of Tupperwear's 2017's sophomore album, Mokele Mbembe. Rising from the ashes of legendary underground Tenerife outfit Colectivo Drone are Tupperwear -- an organic electronic duo formed by Daniel García (Salétile) and Mladen Kurajica (Gaf) in 1999. Since then, and for the most of 20+ years they have been unleashing electronic waves of sound from the Atlantic Island by way of intense live and a series of uncompromising and unclassifiable albums and EPs. Taking cues from a wide spectrum of electronic music classics, mostly the more pastoral and frantic electronica of Aphex Twin et all circa the late '90s, whilst at the same time adding their own mischievous and tongue in cheek approach to composition and performance, Tupperwear have for the last 20 years been responsible for some of the most intense live performances the island has seen whilst also taking their anything goes, improvisation first approach all over the world, this includes virtually all of Europe (east or west), Japan, China, Peru, Colombia, Equador, or Mexico, you name it! In 2017 the local festival and label Keroxen published Mokele Mbembe, their second LP of twisted electronica which is here repressed to a wider public after the success of their collaboration with São Paulo Underground and Chicago legend Rob Mazurek.

"Klitekture debut for this Canary trio from Tenerife, in which they offer a very much personal and particular vision of psychedelic electronica's evolution, dense and incarnated in loops that penetrate in logarithmic abstraction. We come across suffocating moments, sick jazz in a minimalistic key, sparks of extreme, evolutive, interlaced intensity that eventually create futurisms and bring them close to the listener. Thus, we are talking about a work in which the search for new sonic borders is permanent, and borders themselves come across each other and disappear, from ambient electronica to noise, from techno to dub, all spiced with high doses of experimentation and risk, the risk of looking for a personal and very solid sound, with the reward of finding it. Spontaneously, emotional bridges are set up between apocalyptic soundstorms and the most absolute ambient calmness coming from within, in a continuous evolution and filled to the brim with creativity. Homages to the industrial sound dyed with fine minimalistic details, framed in profound techno bases of polyedric manners, built up by the sum of multiple layers. Kleen is a clear example of Tupperwear's vital restlessness. This is also a record in which the evocation of landscapes both mental and physical is palpable, and the exquisite production creates electrifying atmospheres, sometimes filled with mystery."
