When UFO! (Ed Garro) landed in San Jose, Costa Rica in the winter of 2008, little did he know
he would soon meet one of the most inspiring collaborators of his musical career. Son1ka
(Federico Gomez), son of university professors and a percussion prodigy since the age of 7, is a
huge fan of drum & bass culture and had been exploring the sounds of liquid drum & bass,
house and electro. Son1ka and friend DJ NME - who made the introduction - had collected
almost every one of UFO!’s drum & bass records over the years, so it was an auspicious
meeting.

Born out of a basic need for a space to rock some serious low-end frequencies, Son1ika offered
up his studio for the two to make music together. The results are a sonic dance between Ed’s
raw energy and breakneck velocity combined with Federico’s grounded energy and graceful
intelligence.

“Our balance is that I come up with 50 ideas a minute, but don’t have the patience to ground
one of them. He’s a real nerve in the studio, he grounds it, presses record, I play, he adds to it,
and moves it around. There is no second guessing,” says Ed, who described their sessions very
much fueled by well-made Costa Rican coffee, bread and butter.

Now both based in NYC, Son1ka and UFO! as Cosmetics are bringing the Costa Rican heat to
a dancefloor near you.

Que verguenza mi país. Estos dos super artistas lanzan un disco que hasta XLR8R cubre y aquí solo los 3 old cats de siempre le dan pelota. Deberían ser nominados como artistas del año!!! y así se ganan una carreta típica con aros de 24" pero bueno...
