Maputo-based producer Nandele 's debut solo project Argolas Deliciosas (which translates to Sweet Rings ) is a 6-track collection of instrumental boom-bap, dubstep, trap and psychedelic beats put together as a tribute to the late J Dilla . Nandele, a former drummer in Mozambican hip-hop and rock outfits, pictures the EP as a journey — a "place for contemplation, a planet, an escape to ethereal atmospheres, [and] a tele transport to other galaxies."
The Mahla Filmes -directed visuals for "Fin o Humano (E O Regresso do Boom Bap)," a previously featured lead single from the release, follow the lanky beatmaker as he takes a daytime stroll along the streets, markets and beaches of his city, ending in a kaleidoscopic rooftop hangout.
Argolas Deliciosas also features production work from Mozambique's Embri0n and Fu da Siderurgia . The EP will be accompanied by a comic book with art by Ricardo Pinto , the artist responsible for the cover artwork (above).
