Album Review
HYPRK
Reviewed 2023-11-09
Debut full-length from electronic (mostly house) producer and singer Sofia Kourtesis. A bouncy, joyous, sophisticated release that perfectly blends her Peruvian roots with her current home of Berlin, or as she puts it: "my heart is very Latin American, but my motor is German.” Lyrics mostly in Spanish with a bit of English. Highly recommended. FCC Clean. TRY: 2, 3, 1, 4

1. Hypnotic, lush house with beautiful vocals
2. Slick, skippy, clubby, with a catchy chorus
3. Moving tribute track to her mother’s life-saving doctor. Metallic minimal beat with sci-fi flourishes
4. 90’s tinged, a bit ravey with a chopped breakbeat
5. Beautiful lilty deep house track with a touch of jazz
6. Dubby, funky house
7. Chopped up vocal samples, a slow somber washy beat
8. Xylophone-led beat with washed-out vocals, jazzy elements and chirping birds. So cool
9. Uptempo, percussion-forward
10. Floaty house with chanted vocal samples and a touch of horns
11. Shorter edit of track #2
12. Shorter edit of track #3
13. Shorter edit of track #4
