12" Vinyl – RS048

Our first window into the ‘Astroturismo’ project is ‘Body Nature’, a light and lively opener which manages to be both an upbeat, uplifting dancefloor-friendly roller and a breezy poolside companion. Playfully layering bouncy drum patterns and a variety of timely percussive touches (cowbells, whistles and triangles are thrown in mischievously and sprinkled with ease) with a melody that quickly finds its way into your heels and hips, Paula masterfully builds and brightens throughout the 5 minutes. ‘Body Nature’ also features vocals from the artist herself, subtly calling to early 90s inspirations. The track sets the tone for a fresh and energetic electronic EP, formed of the polyrhythmic patterns and airy drum arrangements Paula has become known for. ‘Body Nature’ is sure to make you float off into memories of sunnier climes and sandier dances, and where else would we want to be right now?

“When I started working on the Astroturismo EP I didn't know the music I was writing was going to shape into an EP. Finalizing the first track "Body Nature" helped me a lot to orientate the correct use of all the music I have been producing during the lockdown months and Rhythm Section team was constantly supporting me to make me feel free to explore musically without needing to stick to club music. "Body Nature embodies strong energies, in a very personal way: I noted down those silly lyrics and kept singing the melody in my head for days, in the end that drove me to create a groove that would work and transfer the mood I was feeling. This track is about feeling a relief with dancing, whether in a private moment like I did in those days or in a public space, few easy moves to trigger positive energy and improve your emotional state.” ~ Paula
