Review by Edgar Mwaka

Semillas by Derrok: A Downtempo Punch to the Gut Alright, let’s get this straight—Semillas isn’t your typical chillout album. Derrok drops something raw and unfiltered here, like a gritty postcard from Brazil's underground electronic scene in 2018. Released under Frente Bolivarista, this downtempo beast sneaks up on you when you least expect it. It’s not perfect, but damn if it doesn’t leave a mark. First off, Último Sendero. This track? It kicks you in the chest with its moody synths and slow-burning rhythm. The beat creeps along like a shadow at dusk—you can feel it lurking even before it fully shows itself. There’s no sugarcoating here; it’s dark, brooding, and kinda hypnotic. I kept coming back to it because it felt like walking through an empty city late at night—lonely as hell, but weirdly comforting too. Derrok knows how to make silence heavy, man. Then there’s Frutos. Oh, this one pissed me off—in a good way. It starts off all mellow, lulling you into thinking it’s just another soft-spoken jam. But then BAM! Those glitchy breaks hit outta nowhere, throwing you off balance. It’s disorienting as fuck, but that’s what makes it stick. Like biting into fruit that’s both sweet and sour—it messes with your head but keeps you hooked. Honestly, I couldn’t decide whether I loved or hated it after the first listen. Now? I’m obsessed. The other tracks, El Escorial and Semillas, aren’t slouches either. They keep the vibe cohesive without overstaying their welcome. But they don’t slap quite as hard as the two I mentioned. Maybe that’s intentional, though—Derrok seems more interested in crafting a mood than blowing your speakers out (thank god). So yeah, Semillas ain’t for everyone. If you’re looking for upbeat bangers or shiny production, bounce. But if you dig music that feels like staring into the void while sipping caipirinhas, this might be your thing. Honestly, listening to this album feels like eavesdropping on someone else’s fever dream—and I mean that as a compliment. Weird flex, but...I think Derrok would’ve been great scoring some dystopian movie soundtrack. Or maybe he already did, and we just don’t know about it yet. Either way, props to him for making something so messy yet unforgettable.
