Hailing from San Juan, Puerto Rico, Cali Lanauze ignited his music career early, earning nods from heavyweights such as Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Radio Slave, and Davide Squillace with his tunes on heavy rotation. Manning the helm of his Opulence label and sharing the decks with DJs like Dixon, Art Department, and many more, Lanauze makes his first appearance on Damian Lazarus' Rebellion with his new four-track EP, "Skipping Stones."

Leading the release, "The Day I Let You Go" unfolds with soft Balearic drums, dreamy pads, and tender male vocals. At the same time, "Skipping Stones" integrates off-beat kicks that evolve via ethereal and emotive keys, shaping the overall ambiance. Up next, Israel's Kadosh joins Lanauze to contribute "Zohar," bringing his expertise following releases on labels such as Innervisions and Watergate Records. Together, they join deep pads and cosmic stabs beneath low-toned vocals that bring soul to this laid-back groove. Closing out, "Ultimo Baile" brings scattered beat patterns with enchanting synth tones, radiating prime-time resonance.
