REVIEW: MIDNIGHT CHOCOLATE GOSPEL - MANDIBOLA [TASTE REC]



The first release for RAISED series is coming from mysterious beat maker Midnight Chocolate Gospel, released in Taste Rec. A dormient Akai MPC ninja who had found time and inner peace during Covid to be able to dust off his machines and get back to music production. Designed to be a perfect listening experience, the longest hour-long experimental journey is infused with out of place rhythms, conflicting sounds, and easy breaks.


RAISED series is a euphoric psychedelic experience, with each track taking the listener on their own sonic journey. The series will showcase a mixture of sounds to dive in, contemporary rhythms that cross genres following the pulse of the world.

Designed to be a perfect listening experience, the longest hour-long experimental journey is infused with out of place rhythms, conflicting sounds, and easy breaks.


Through solid arrangements and solid programming, this single becomes a vehicle for reverential music that manages to spill out enough ideas from the artist himself to shake off the high era, allowing it to exist in its own right as credible.



Each tune is driven by groovy bass lines, cheeky percussion loops, dreamy strings, as well as piano and guitars and sampled vocals. Altogether, this album is as experimental as it is intense and addictive, it takes over oneself like a sweet poison, while progressively transporting us, as few producers with a certain fluidity are willing to do.


We do not know what the future holds, but we do know that this album is testimony to a turbulent and uncertain present, which will remain in our memory forever. For records like this, we can continue to fight for a better future.
