Lainus – Noisey
Madam, allow us to offer you some advice from the newsroom of this humble page: Instead of resorting to ASMR videos, where someone pretends to transmit a non-existent spirituality with their whispering voice while cutting open a carton of milk with a knife or lightly tapping a metal pot, we recommend watching this clip repeatedly to enjoy fun and relaxing images that serve as an excuse to present real music and not clumsy simulations of concrete art in times of pandemic. Exactly three minutes of good ambient from Chile, without false pretenses new age, During times of quarantine, it's better to support good independent music than to pay anyone to show us how they want to bring about world peace by breaking eggs at low volume.
Juan Olmedillo – Dead End Street
One point that must be emphasized, despite the diaspora, despite how far removed the artists are from their place of origin: The good Venezuelan pop-rock of the last fifteen years, most of it produced in exile, continues, in its own way, producing great songs, even though their protagonists have changed, due to the circumstances we already know, their space for dissemination and their daily reasons for survival. Juan Olmedillo, a Caracas native residing in Mexico City and a founding member of Los Mentas and La Pequeña Venganza, has released a solo track that is exquisite in its simplicity and sensitivity. He has also created a video that, in his own unique way, uses a meticulously crafted photographic concept to pay homage to his hometown, making full use of the colors that surround it. It is a beautiful audiovisual piece that deserves to be celebrated.
Must – Endurance
Yes, we've received many music videos over the past few months referencing the street protests in Chile, and almost all of them denounce police violence, the government's contempt for the people, and the faces of struggle and resistance. In this case, what this trio has done stands out for its editing and its desire to remind us that the resistance in that country has not waned. Despite the fact that the first date for the plebiscite on the new constitution has already passed due to the pandemic, The desire for change that we feel deserves to be sustained in the south of our continent cannot falter at any moment. In short, this clip gives us an excuse to remember that the best is yet to come and we must continue fighting for it.
