Following on from the critically acclaimed Penya Investigations cassettes and the 12inch Acelere EP, Afro-Latin-electronic collective Penya conclude an intensely creative period with a Long Player collection of tracks Super Liminal. Liminal an in-between state references the transitional process the four piece band entered during a series of self-produced recording sessions held at Penyas multi-instrumentalist Magnus PIs home studio between March 2016 and May 2017. Penyas percussive and futuristic Afro-Latin sound also owes its genesis to the concept of liminality: the threshold of disorientation occurring during ritual practices. Penya s hypnotic groovescapes, led by Jim LeM s bata drumming,ancient chants, sung by Lilli Elina, dubbed-out improvisations on trombone by Viva Msimangand lo-fi electronic production by Magnus P.I create a sound that has garnered significant support on BBC 6 Music via Tom Ravenscroft, Worldwide FM via Gilles Peterson, on BBC Radio 3s Late Junction, as well as being praised by a host of producers including DJ Khalab, Will LV, DJ Jose Marquez and Dengue Dengue Dengue. Penya s energised and engaging live show has also toured across UK festivals this summer, including Brainchild, Wilderness, Farmfest and Big Love.
