Bananafish – Super Monday
It's time to celebrate the absurd, the good humor contained in a bizarre audiovisual product, in which, regardless of the low budget with which it was made, the idea is brilliantly captured and the song takes on even more strength than it had before the final editing of the video. Neither Matchbox nor Barbie have the right to complain about the use of their toys in this clip., Nor does it diminish the stressful start to the week that this punk trio from Santiago, Chile, conveys. The band members' expressive performance is flawless, and the stage presence is seamlessly integrated with a collection of props and puppets that complete the amusing spectacle. It's the best possible way to face a typical Monday in any of our major cities.
Kumbia Queers –Medano
Our beloved pioneers of cumbia in a punk style (or, if you prefer, to avoid arguments, punk with a strong cumbia influence) are back in the scene with an ecological warning message and an aesthetic similar to that seen in Mad Max (without the speed or violence of that film). Filmed near the tourist destinations of Nueva Atlantis and Traslasierra, in the province of Buenos Aires, the video expresses a warning about the desolation and environmental disaster that will approach in just a few years, all while maintaining its signature flavor and rhythm. It's about protesting while continuing to dance. An interesting photographic concept and a meticulous final edit make for a well-rounded result.
Chico Trujillo + Gipsy & His Combo – I'm not from here, nor am I from there.
Guys from Chico Trujillo, I'm sure the dearly missed Facundo Cabral would be honored by your version of his song, fifty-one years after it was originally composed and released. You know how to add that tropical element that can be enjoyed at any local festival, bringing joy to young and old alike. And to accompany it visually, you've released a splendid video, directed by JG.Biggs, where everything works flawlessly. Filmed in the Chilean forests, This clip is an incredible explosion of color, enhanced by meticulous art direction and an exciting selection of photographic lenses for each scene. And a sublime edit that captures the audience's attention and holds it for every moment. Without a doubt, it will be among the best videos of 2021, thanks to its elegance, originality, and the care evident in its creation.
