Opaque Pink Vinyl An immersive percussion-led meditation from Los Angeles-based composer and producer Carlos Niño, Bubble Bath for Giants is at once an ode to oceanic vastness and a celebration of the quietly powerful - what Niño describes as the same energy expressed in different vessels. Recorded in Topanga, California and across the homes of the artists involved, the album unfolds through an extraordinary density of acoustic material: bells, bowls, ceramics, chimes, cymbals, bass drum, sakara, surdo, tom, gongs of every provenance (chao, cup, Indonesian, sun, symphonic), metal and wooden keyboards, synthesizers, plant leaf bundles and fronds of bamboo, eucalyptus and palm, rattles, shakers, voice, whistles, and Niño's own sound design. The result is something that breathes rather than moves - a vast, ceremonial gentleness.

The cast of collaborators is remarkable: Laraaji, Marshall Allen, André 3000, Darius Jones, Sam Gendel, Idris Ackamoor, Saul Williams, Mia Doi Todd, Surya Botofasina, Sibusile Xaba, Deantoni Parks, Luis Pérez Ixoneztli, Bernard Xolotl, Sheila Govindarajan, Anisia Uzeyman, Aaron Shaw, Nate Mercereau, Jojo Abot, Jowee Omicil, and Aztlan Unearthed. Mastered by David Allen. Cover photograph by Carlos Niño, from the waters of Maui. Art direction, design and original art by Nep Sidhu.
