A Psychedelic Journey with Ethnic Influences

Centurio has long been known for incorporating ethnic elements into his music, as seen in his earlier work on tracks like Heat and Love from the 2012 minialbum Freedom. In Ethnism, his ethnic vocal style takes center stage, blending seamlessly with the rhythmic foundation laid by Kromproom.
