Sharingan

Dutch producer Philou Louzolo returns to Byrd Out for a second outing, mining that seam between Afro, house, and electro with Sharingan EP. He's been working in a darkened room for some months on his own label Wokoundou (remixing Amadou & Miriam), but produced two new tracks, "Sharingan" and "Itachi", that make up the A side. And on the flip, they've married the originals with three remixes, from Kenyan-via-Kampala talent Slikback, who gives "Sharingan" an industrial pulsing feel, Ariwo's Pouya Ehsaei, with a stripped-back take on "Itachi", and Native Cruise with a lush, Balearic-tinged edit of "Sharingan".
