Terror/Cactus: Transmisión Clandestina.

Terror/Cactus: Transmisión Clandestina.

Terror/Cactus – “Transmisión Clandestina” is a signal about control slipping, a cumbia track that treats the airwaves as territory and the body as its first occupied zone. Rhythm arrives as a steady shuffle, the kind that belongs to street speakers…

The Active Set: Death Of A Friend

The Active Set: Death Of A Friend

The Active Set´s “Death Of A Friend” treats grief as something that piles up until it loses shape, where one loss stops being separate from the next. A guitar-led indie rock structure keeps returning to the same place, each absence…

David Laborier: Owl Skewl.

David Laborier: Owl Skewl.

David Laborier – “Owl Skewl” is a study in groove as language, where jazz phrasing, rock attack, and early 90s hip hop bounce share the same sentence without translation. Built as an instrumental, the track refuses the idea that voice…

João Larcher, Wheels: Clash.

“Clash”, by João Larcher and Wheels, is an argument staged inside one voice, where past and present interrupt each other without warning. Built on an experimental rock frame that splices samples, electronic drums, and acoustic hits, the track treats identity…

Ellery Twining: Oy!

Ellery Twining: Oy!

Ellery Twining´s “Oy!” is an act of blind synchronization, a score composed for a student film the musician never saw. Parallel narratives replace the debt sound owes to image, refusing the role of background. Indeterminate music emerges from a specific…

Maria Reich: Final Song.

Maria Reich: Final Song.

“Final Song”, by Maria Reich, is a study on the architecture of patience, where the search for meaning is discarded in favor of inhabiting it. The violin and viola aren’t background; they function as a second pair of lungs, rasping…

Vydoo, Victoria Grant: Tangled In You

Vydoo, Victoria Grant: Tangled In You

Vydoo´s “Tangled In You” is an exercise in gravity, where the logic of self-preservation is traded for the pull of an invisible center. Victoria Grant’s vocals provide the weight for a track that merges synth-pop structures with the high-stakes sentimentality…
