A key name within Spain's house landscape for over a decade, Malaga's Cuartero has become a DJ, producer, and label owner whose global reputation is continually rising. Founder of Sanity while also steering the ship at his own Cuartero Concept project, exploring more personal ideas and inspiration across strains of house, minimal, and techno, his diary is as busy as it has ever been with worldwide dates at the likes of Club Space D-Edge, Sunwaves, Kappa Futur and fabric adding to regular appearances at Pacha, Amnesia, Fabrik and INPUT.

Arriving to join the likes of Sepp, Nu Zau, and Guti on the label, he makes his debut outing on Joey Daniel's burgeoning SiO Records imprint to open September as he uncovers four slick, heady, and classy cuts across his "Persefone EP."

Opening the package, the slinking tones of the skippy title track, "Persefone," as wiggly synths dart amongst crisp percussion arrangements and subtle acid squelches. At the same time, "Cu Chu" focuses on the low ends as wobbly basslines topple beneath brutal metallic kicks, warped vocals, and more ever-evolving electronics.

Next, "Otaclock" is groove-led and hooky as female vocal runs guide icy hats and bumping bass hits before closing with the stripped-back, raw sonics of the final effort, "I Never."
