Caruma

Flembaz is back with Caruma, their third full-length album, released by Blind Arc. In Caruma, Flembaz present a cerebral endeavour, more focused on the collective listening experience, slow build-ups leading up to structured, yet raw summit points, in a minimalistic take on the psychedelic realm of techno music punctuated by extasis-inducing peaks. The title reveals the thought process of the album: in Portuguese, Caruma is a collective noun for needles that amass in the soil beneath pinetrees, the setting of volatile microcosms - and a perfect firelighter.

As in previous releases by Flembaz, Caruma was mastered by João Bandarra and Pedro R.Artur at Tripalle Studios and has artwork by Fred Sarmento.
