Mishegas is the electronic music project of Emilio Quezada Ibañez, the Mexico-born and New York City-based artist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist with a range of sonic styles as diverse as his own upbringing and interests. Taking his name from a Yiddish word that can be interpreted as hectic, crazy, or eccentric, all terms which can be used to describe elements of his sound, Mishegas has released a steady stream of acclaimed singles over the past few years.
The Temporary Love EP showcases the producer’s ability to create upbeat music set in atmospheric realms. “Untitled” sits in a sweet spot between an indie and electronic song, and “Feel It All” leans towards the heavier side of dance music. While never overtly wearing his artistic influences on his sleeve, the work nevertheless feels right at home next to the music of acts like Tourist, Tycho, and Rostam, bound by its melding of deft electronic manipulation, varying tempos, and integrated genre dipping.
