Our Take

COMPRO ORO's latest album, Suburban Exotica, is a mesmerising journey through sonic landscapes that feel both familiar and otherworldly. The Belgian band effortlessly blends Afro-Cuban rhythms with psychedelic rock, creating a sound that is simultaneously retro and futuristic.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a dimension where tropical birds sing alongside fuzzy guitars and groovy basslines. The opening track, "Jungle Rumble," sets the tone for the album, with its infectious energy and catchy melodies that will have you tapping your feet in no time.

But don't be fooled by the upbeat vibes - there's a depth to Suburban Exotica that reveals itself upon closer listen. Tracks like "Mystic Slop" and "Sonic Whiplash" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly weave together influences from across the musical spectrum, creating a rich tapestry of sound that demands your attention.

And let's not forget about the band's technical prowess - the musicianship on display here is top-notch, with each member bringing their own unique flavour to the mix. Whether it's the intricate guitar work of frontman Bob Bogaert or the driving percussion of drummer Bart Vervaeck, every element comes together seamlessly to create a truly immersive listening experience.

In conclusion, COMPRO ORO's Suburban Exotica is a must-listen for anyone craving something fresh and exciting in their music collection. So grab your favourite cocktail, kick back, and let the exotic sounds wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
