DEFENSA - PEIXE (BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA)

"Five years after the first volume, ARENA01, Agva Records is back with ARENA02, a mega-pack of almost forty tracks focusing on the experimental and hybrid club scene of Latin America.

Released in 2016, the first chapter laid the foundations of the label and unveiled a solid tracklisting composed of close and local members of the collective (Defensa, EL PLVYBXY, CHLO…) and international producers (King Doudou, Bigote).

For this second edition, the label did not go easy and gathered a real festival line-up. ARENA02 features projects from all over the continent and beyond, from emerging artists to real headliners: Dengue Dengue Dengue, Lao (NAAFI, Mexico), Bungalovv (TRRUENO, Argentina), Endgame (Precious Metal, UK), Catnapp, Doxxed, Pobvio, or even the Mexican producer who signed the revival of pre-Hispanic tribal, Ozomatecuhtli. Among others!"

AGVA is a Net Label, Music Collective, Radio Show and Night Club based in Buenos Aires. Within the spawn of six years we met so many wonderful people and grew as independent artists and collective in an unprecedented way, this compilation being the visible tip of an iceberg of goals we never dream they would be realizable. We would like to seize this occasion to give thanks to all supporters, friends, family, artists, journalists, event promoters, dj's and others escaping this tags who participate and made this whole story's flow to lead us here.

Defensa - Peixe

Solo

The 38th release of katharsis and our final release of 2023 is the prodigious compilation "Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light" featuring a vast array of artist beloved by the label. Throughout the grandiose line-up of the 36 tracks, the listener is absorbed by various differing interpretations of the theme outlined in the title of the album. Some of the invited artist went full into introverted progressions and meditative sounds, while others focused on aggressive rhythms or anthemic melodies. But even though the styles and techniques of the songs differ from each other, the artists seem to have some commonality in their sonic palettes that binds it all together in a mutual love for music as a healing force of nature <3

CAMBIOS

Las culturas prehispánicas interpretaban un eclipse solar como una tragedia para la vida en la tierra, pues creían que el sol era devorado por las xulab, unas hormigas míticas, devoraban al Sol y a la Luna cuando tenía lugar un eclipse fue cambiando por la idea de que, en realidad, era un ser maligno, tal vez el mismísimo diablo o kakaz-baal (diablo en maya), el que intentaba engullir a estos cuerpos celestes.

La cosmovisión maya de los eclipses solares convirtió estos acontecimientos celestes, que los astrónomos mayas aprendieron a predecir, en algo terrorífico. Documentados en varios códices, en especial en el de Dresde, los eclipses solares eran interpretados por este pueblo como el momento en que un ser maléfico devoraba al Sol, el astro dador de vida.

Durante mucho tiempo, en la península del Yucatán existieron todo tipo de creencias místicas relacionadas con los eclipses, como la que afirma que existe una correlación entre los eclipses y las malformaciones fetales. Y es que aunque en la actualidad sabemos que los eclipses son fenómenos completamente naturales, totalmente previsibles y que, evidentemente, no anuncian ninguna desgracia, muchas de estas ancestrales creencias aún perduran en muchos lugares.
