This is a working demo for a song called Nepantla. All of the parts were written, performed, recorded, and mixed by Jorge Palacios Jr (performing as Iowa City Goat Club) using Ableton Live. There's some Jazzmasters and a Bass VI being played through a Boss Katana 50 (mk I) directly in, and some vocals recorded through an AKG Perception 200 into a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2. The drums were programed using a kit in Ableton, and all was mixed using (mostly) stock plugins. It is far from done but that's okay.

Lyrics:
Growing like columbines
in the cracks of a concrete desert
do I leave? or do I stay
moving is just so much effort
between the potheads and pothos, the cool and the crossed
the christians and klansmen, the rachels and ross
between all of these people I know that I'm feeling lost
I'm feeling lost

My spanish's not broken
it's like already burnt-out matches 
They gave me a new tongue
it's not English it's mourning the ashes
Do I leave for Chicago though I know that that's not home?
Do I stay 'till tomorrow and go it alone?
Do I follow the hard road and fight like I know what to do?
I don't know what to do

Nepantla
Tierra Aztlan
Agua Bendita
Ya tomada
