/Beyond/ - Frecuencias Ancestrales (2022)

Frecuencias Ancestrales Ancestrales is a brand new audio visual collaboration between / beyond / and Pedro Maia exploring Mexico's ancestral sounds and pre-Hispanic cultures from the point of view of two creators of audiovisual arts of the 21st century.

Their debut album - produced by / beyond / with co-production from Oscar Carillo and simply titled 'Ancient Sound of Mexico' - comes in the form of a 9-track limited edition transparent vinyl LP with each track referencing the 9 different phases that make up the Mitclan, the underworld of Aztec mythology. The album features unique collaborations with indigenous Chichimeca Jonaz musicians, pre-Hispanic
poet Nestor Vargas and instrumentalist Oscar Carillo, modular synthesist Leo Mendez and ancient Nahuatl mantras by Humberto Alvarez.

'Ancient Sound of Mexico' is a journey of intense emotions both melancholic and raw. It is a synthesis between ancient ritual music and the repetitive rhythms of modern electronic musical styles.

The album ships with a limited edition fanzine documenting the project, designed by Cannibalism Studio. The essential moments are reflected, such the collaborations with the Chichimeca Jonaz musicians, featuring the fantastic photographic material of Teresa Espadafor. The fanzine is produced with permission of all involved.

'Ancient Sound of Mexico' is released on February 25th on limited edition transparent vinyl & digital with artwork by Cannibalism Studio and design by Goldmoth Media. Mastered by Dominic at Declared Sound. Distributed by Rubadub.
