Jaguaro
Co-Pilot
CAT EVES040 — 2026
After debuting on WeMe Records with the EP *D.I.Y.* and *Green Machine*, released by New Interplanetary Melodies, Co-Pilot returns with a new album that solidifies the maturity gained through a personal exploration of hybrid territories between electronic music and rock attitude. For those unfamiliar with the distinctive sound of this artist, it’s important to know that Co-Pilot originates from a live drumming background, but continues to evolve, constantly nourished by the blend of electronic elements that gives the rhythmic and persuasive sound a personality beyond any genre classification. Of course, it’s hard to use such terms today to describe something in a world where everything seems to have already been done; however, Co-Pilot sounds like Co-Pilot.
The tracks on the EP are a revelation, merging the experiences from his debut and going far beyond them. One can feel the live energy of the drummer, where intricate real drum rhythms blend with electronics, maintaining a unique language of sounds and genre boundaries, constantly merging and diverging in an organic yet distinctive sound. In this music, we can truly sense that everything we hear is played by a person. Co-Pilot humanizes electronics while simultaneously elevating its form through the abstraction of structures.
As Co-Pilot says: “Jaguaro takes its name from a sign inside the Urban, a historic club in Perugia, one of the few Italian venues that, according to Co-Pilot, still authentically embodies club culture. The concept of the EP is a tribute to clubbing, a subculture that, in some ways, is disappearing from its original form. The EP ends with a field recording from the bathrooms of Berlin’s Berghain Club, the epitome of global clubbing.”
Unlike his previous releases, *Jaguaro* stands out with a more inspired form, returning to the roots of *D.I.Y.*, but with a more complete and confident approach, where everything finds its place. Unlike *Green Machine*, which explored more folkloric and psychedelic folk-inspired territories, this album pays tribute to club culture, in a crossover that nods to post-punk and art rock. The album was mixed by Alex Sciamannini and mastered by Cesare Bignotti / EVES and Giorgio Barrocu, to deliver an authentic sound that highlights the electronic aspect, particularly the rhythm and bass, subtly hinting at its dancefloor context, while preserving the genuine energy that defines this remarkable project’s sound.
