NTSC – Eventuality
Amidst so much caution that we sometimes feel weighing on our shoulders, it's refreshing when someone comes along and surprises us with their desire to break everything down, perhaps to start all over again with more attitude, more courage. What this Argentinian band expresses might seem like a throwback to a time when an unexpected elegance was cultivated, an aesthetic that, just as easily, could shatter with a single scream, surprising the audience. Even so, this kind of approach still works effectively today. This is the first single from what will be their debut album., But this quartet based in Buenos Aires is already attracting attention with its excellent melodic work, its tireless distortion guitars, and its frenetic rhythm. The video boasts exquisite cinematography and a simple, direct staging that, without overcomplicating things, effectively puts the musicians and their polished artistry front and center. It's a fine piece of work that certainly raises expectations for what's to come.
The Brigid Orchestra – Rookie
An interesting fact: Chile seems to have become one of the main epicenters for the development of musical styles that combine classic jazz with contemporary hip hop. This style is definitely gaining ground and producing fascinating expressions that seem to be conquering the world. A good example of this is this group with eleven musicians on board, with a brilliant instrumental mix and a vocal flow more than adequate to complete their songs. The clip is a compilation of travels and recordings, skillfully combining black and white scenes with bursts of vibrant color. What we see is a scrapbook of memories that perfectly complements what we hear, signaling the project's fresh, everyday energy.
DeerMx – אIV (Out Of The Mountain Of Despair)
Let's return to distortion, let's increase the level of aggression to close this piece. Let's travel once again to Hong Kong, where this Mexican couple lives, constantly exploring the art of noise and contemporary violence. His work seems to simulate a constant drilling that penetrates every fragile area that comes close to our ear and our sight, with extreme alterations and broken and distorted images. Perhaps most viewers don't want to receive these kinds of messages at this stage of the game, but those who understand the need to occasionally confront these kinds of harmonic disruptions will realize that their function is to confirm that the planet has a more perverse essence than we suspect.
