Korea - Algo Especial (2018)

Korea was born as a duo and so it was until 2016, year in which Jorge Velasquez, leader of the project, decided to look for a band sound. "We started with a more electronic sound, but that required the DJ format and I've always liked playing in a group, we did it to simplify the format and save, but it was difficult for us to have all the machines. trio for which Luciano Leone and Marcel Caillaux have joined, "says Velásquez.

It is with them that they will present "Algo especial", the first album of the band, on Friday the 15th at the Dada disco. As you can see, this album flirts with electronic sounds that reverberate, to which Velásquez chose to add other musical references that allow, as will happen that night, make acoustic presentations. In this regard, he comments: "To cover the sound of the album you would have to listen to a certain contemporary indie from the last ten years, I really like Blood Orange, which is a wave that pulls more Prince, but there is also Soda Stereo, Fito Páez, Charly García, Spinetta, Phoenix, Grimes, Arcade Fire, a bit of all that wave, I think I would define the sound more like Mexican indie, I feel that it owes to groups like Camilo Septimo, Technicolor Fabrics, Siddhartha, Caloncho. "

For now, Velásquez anticipates that he has the next EP ready, which will be titled "Círculos", a more ambitious production that will be released at the end of the year and that will include the band's most famous songs such as "Jardín" or "Fuera de foco"..
