About this item

Sega Bodega's debut album "Salvador" was an instant success for the then unheard of producer. Reaching the top of many end-of-year lists the vinyl version has become highly sought whilst the LP continues to stream in the millions.

For the vinyl junkies and his army of fans, this new, "Heaven Edition" should be a prized trophy. A red / black splatter with bonus track "Heaven Fall" which was originally debuted at Sega’s St Pancras Old Church String Ensemble residency back in 2019 and revisited in 2021’s ‘Salvador: The Final Act’ online live show.

Born in Ireland, raised in Glasgow and now based in London, producer, performer and labelhead Sega Bodega - aka Salvador Navarrete - has built a reputation as being one of the UK’s most innovative and precocious creative minds. Inspired as much by his close network of peers as his love of cinematic soundscapes, he has made impacts spanning across music, fashion and film, soundtracking some of the most important cultural moments in recent years, as well as building a catalogue of prolific and critically acclaimed solo releases that traverse genre, style and composition.

File between: Burial, Doon Kanda, Sophie, Earl Sweatshirt & Mac Miller.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: A hallucinatory blend of woozy, cough-syrup soundscapes, auto-tuned, self-deprecating & highly intimate benzo-raps and a drizzly, peering-thru-a-window outlook which should resonate with anyone feeling the blues this Winter. Throw in some speaker-busting, fresh as you like beats and you've a mutant R&B hit on your hands!
