Arrogalla's Latest EP on LCL netlabel : "Exotic animals in the scrub" (LCL17)

Arrogalla (Sardinia) is mixing both local and world influences, folk instruments and casio synths, producing an EP against formating like an invitation to meet and exchange.
It's minimal, lofi and instrumental at the same time mixing dub, 8bit, hiphop or ragga and incorporating several voicing styles.

1. Padenti secrets
2. Mai citiu (feat. Ganga & Quilo)
3. We love flamants (feat. Ganga & Volfoniq)
4. Oi till you want (feat. Claudioa Aru Carreras)
5. Su lioni passiau (feat. Randagiu Sardu)

Several guests added their stone to this collective building :
- Quilo : sardinian hiphop activist since 1981, leader of "Sa Razza" and "Malos Cantores"
- Claudia Aru Carreras : sardinian singer who works with the electro-fusion band Bentesoi and is involved into several jazz projects
- Randagiu Sardu : a ragga name in sardinia who already signed two LPs
- Ganga : a sardinian turntablist who prepares his first album for Nootempo records
- Volfoniq : french du producer who released several EPs on netlabels like LCL, Jahtari and A quiet bump and works with musicians and singers from around the world
