El Guincho

God I love this stuff. Somewhere between Animal Collective and a piña colada lies Lord Huron. The LA based project is the brainchild of Benji Schneider. Yes, it’s another “beachy” sounding band that sounds like a luau on acid… or in an underground cavern… or both, but I’m a sucker for tropical psychedelics. He made waves with his first EP, Into The Sun, released back in June. His new track Mighty is an upbeat jam in the vein of El Guicho‘s Antillas that makes you want to dance hysterically around a campfire in a grass skirt. It’s set to be released on his new EP by the same name on November 2nd.

I know I know, I’m a bit late with this one but non the less this needed to grace the “pages” of this blog. The video for El Guinchos‘ single “Bombay” is amazing! Is it me or is this video a bit nostalgic, reminds me of “bad” latinoesque or maybe even cultish movies I caught when I was a kid (women, machine guns, yeah). Love love love it! Also enjoy a few tracks by this Barcelona native sure to bring joy to these gloomy & miserable last couple of days.
