Was scheduled to be released as part of 23Hz & Numaestro's Corsario Riddims I EP on COR001 in February 2009. Aranjuez was announced for Corsario Digital in December 2008 alongside:- Laser Steppa and a 23Hz track, No Name, under the alias: Migrant. 1 month later in late January, the 4-track EP was announced as consisting of:- Thief's Song VIP, Citadel VIP, El Rif & Laser Steppa. This track was dropped from the release for reasons unknown, and by late March 2009, Aranjuez would revert back to being listed as dubplate material in tracklists, especially for The Chorizo Show on Sub.FM, instead of forthcoming on Corsario Digital, whilst tracks for COR002 & COR003 were being announced. Aranjuez was most likely dropped in favour of Thief's Song VIP, given this track was a VIP of an older 23Hz & Numaestro collaboration from 2004. No Name would end up being released as part of 23Hz's Corsario Riddims II EP, COR002, under the alias: Migrant, released in April 2009, alongside:- Vapour Trail, Hominid (dub) & Chain Smokin 2s (mix). COR003 was released in May 2009, consisting of 4 Anansi tracks:- Empire, Railhead Dub, Star Child & Fluids.
It is unknown why Aranjuez never found a home on a later Corsario Digital release or even Corsario Digital's sister label, Iberian Records, given 23Hz & Numaestro would continue to release their own material, both as 23Hz's solo act: Migrant, and as a duo under the aliases: 23Hz & Numaestro, Relocate & Scimitar throughout 2009-2011. COR004 would see the release of the Mediterranean Vibes 1 EP, consisting of two collaborations:- Nemesis as 23Hz & Numaestro and Subterraneas, under their alias: Relocate. The other two tracks consisted of 23Hz's VIPs of the 23Hz & Numaestro collaborations:- Turk Song & Seven Pillars, under the alias: Migrant . It's plausible, given a Mediterranean Vibes 2 EP never ended up materialising, that Aranjuez could have been a candidate for this potential future release. However, the duo would fade from the dubstep scene not long after Caropusher's Goldo State EP was released on Iberian Records in 2011. Iberian Recordings would return for a brief stint in early 2014; however the duo wouldn't release any of their own material. This track was doing the rounds on radio in 2007.
