“Morpho”, the inventive brainchild from the maestro duo of Donato Dozzy and Sabla carries listeners on an enchanting, sonic voyage through the realms of minimalist cosmic beatdown, and elaborate subaquatic techno. Following their infectious 2023 mix, “Crono”, the musical pair returns with an exhilarating audial brew of pulsating soundscapes and subterranean bass, closely reminiscent of the classic Kangaroo blends from Ilpo Väisänen.
With “Morpho”, Donato Dozzy & Sabla have brilliantly woven together an array of hypnotic melody and alluring rhythm, transporting listeners into a vivid, immersive astral plane. While characteristically maintaining a disciplined minimalistic approach, there’s a captivating progression in the structure of sound that mirrors the organic complexities of life itself – akin to the fascinating journey from a seed to a pivotal entity.
The absorbing undercurrents of ‘Morpho’ draw parallels to the absorptive rhythmic momentum found in the works of kindred spirits in the musical world such as Underworld and Aphex Twin. However, the uniqueness emanating from this Dozzy and Sabla concoction is centered around its vividly evocative nature. Rather than a linear ascension, the album unfurls, stretching sonically in all dimensions. The growth of the soundscape isn’t simply progression; it’s an unfolding narrative – a sensory adventure.
“Morpho” isn’t just a collection of intricately curated tracks, it’s a living, breathing, vibrational entity. The sonic architecture of ‘Forma I’ is crafted around a hefty sub-bass foundation, featuring sparse yet potent sound particles that morph around an errant snare—an auditory illustration of the ‘less is more’ mantra. Striding forward, ‘Forma II’ leads us through an intricate touch maze of tempos and expansive details, exuding a dry minimalism that invites listeners to wander and lose themselves within it.
‘Deeper’ and ‘more organic’ are apt descriptors for ‘Forma III’, which ventures into new audial realms. With emerging percussion and resounding reverbs, metallic elements orbit in circular harmony, much like protons circling a nuclear core. ‘Forma IV’ marks the emergence of a new entity from a chrysalis—where undulating percussive loops and snare drums propel listeners towards the journey’s exhilarating endpoint.
Every sound incorporated in this electrifying expedition known as “Morpho” was meticulously recorded in Dozzy’s studio in Rome throughout July 2024. Following this, everything was intricately edited or occasionally deconstructed to the finite level until February 2025. This intricate process has resulted in an elaborate tapestry of sound that Donato Dozzy & Sabla proudly present as ‘Morpho’.
