Review: Viennese duo Tosca have been dealing in ambient sounds for most of their long-running career, but this new LP on Germany's K7 marks a change in their musical style and vision. While they've been praised for their downbeat jams and abstract sounds in the past, Outta Here is all about rhythm and motion wrapped in a warm, jazzy blanket. "Crazy Love", for example, is basically a boogie tune, while "Have Some Fun" sounds like the perfect leeway between hip-hop and house. "Swimswimswim" is another favourite of ours, mainly for its sensual vocals and alluring groove. A sublime turnout for the Austrian boys!
Review: Tosca's wonderful No Hassle celebrates its 15th anniversary with a reissue that reaffirms its timeless allure. The album remains a hallmark of downtempo and electronic music and is a seamless fusion of jazz, trip-hop, and ambient elements. From ethereal vocals to hypnotic grooves, Tosca crafted a soundscape that transcends the usual genre boundaries and invites listeners into a world of sublime tranquility and introspection. Packed with lush instrumentation and sophisticated production, the record is a perfect escape that is as useful now in the busy modern times as it was back in 2009.
