Producer and multi-instrumentalist Mente Orgánica returns with Pukllay, his new studio album released by Fértil Discos. This album marks a turning point: after a long period immersed in electronic textures and machine beats, the artist felt the need to return to a fresh, organic, and deeply human sound.
With compositions developed over several years, Pukllay was born from an uncontrollable creative impulse: a musical catharsis in which Mente Orgánica sat down to play without restraint, surrounded by instruments and without measuring time. The result is an album that breathes freedom and spontaneity, traversed by acoustic timbres: ronroco, charango, guitars, acoustic piano, double bass, bombo legüero, non-quantized drums, and touches of Moog synthesizer.
The title, Pukllay, means “game” or “carnival” in Quechua, and captures both the playful spirit of the sessions and the festive, carnival-like character that runs through the album. Each track feels like an intimate dialogue between tradition and exploration, between Latin American roots and contemporary arrangements.
Recorded at a time of introspection, the album also reflects a personal change: the decision to work alone, after a period of intense activity in Bogotá, where Jacobo garnered growing attention and performed at major festivals with his more acoustic song projects. Now, with Pukllay, the musician plans to reactivate his live set and form an ensemble to bring these songs to life, expanding his sound universe on stage.
