Tipa Tipo - Arquetipas (2026)

Tipa Tipo thrive on color. The brighter, the bolder, the better. When they take the stage, they sport vivid outfits: jumpsuits in neon pink or iridescent yellow or a distinctive shade of turquoise. And when they release new music, whether it’s a single or a full album, they devise a specific palette to accompany their percolating rhythms and breezy melodies. And in their music they evoke the very colors that inspired them. “Prisma” – which kicks off their second album, the scintillating Arquetipas – burbles with celebratory abandon, full of intersecting rhythms and melodies that act synesthetically. “I wanted the song to feel like the gemstones exhibit at the Natural History Museum,” says Adele Fournet, who sings, plays keyboards, writes, and co-produces. “I wanted to play with the idea of prisms and light refracting into color. Sometimes I feel like I’m walking around in a grayscale world, and I want a rainbow. That’s what we’re trying to do in Tipa Tipo and with Arquetipas.” - Stephen Deusner
