Las aspiraciones vastas y las esperanzas parciales. Repara parte y reparte. Rebio Díaz’s songs blend experimental rock and nueva canción, with electronic moods and hermetic yet catchy lyrics (Spanish). El lugar en lugar del lugar explores the emotional soil of the 2000s and attempts a hopeful provisory map: energized simultaneity, willing fragmentation, serendipituous enthusiasms, and the possibility of immense beginnings.
Boringkén is a book of poems with rock and spoken word CD, the latest collaboration between Urayoán Noel (Las flores del mall; Kool Logic) and composer Monxo López (Spanic Attack). It's a text-sound hybrid, a pro-forma performance: Boringkén is the (com)promised land of tourists in tedium ("the boring Barbie with her boring Ken!"), impossible cities, botched tropics, terrorists in walkups, and leather-clad bankers. 17 poems that oscillate between litany and parody, between the stage and the stanza, tuned to electrobeats and lounge-plena. It's postpunk poetry for the shopworn masses.
