Verraco – aka JP López – has returned to announce Basic Maneuvers alongside the release of its title track.
Basic Maneuvers began in his birthplace of Medellín, with the project’s title track, and evolved over several months as the TraTraTrax label-head relocated to Bogotá, where he now lives and runs his sell-out club series Escándaloo.
Basic Maneuvers is set to be released on 29 May via XL Recordings own house bag series.
