“Agelaius” marks the first collaboration between Colombian songwriter and guitarist FGV and electronic composer and EDM producer Conradaxx. A song about life, love, and destiny, this cyberpunk track organically combines FGV’s edgy guitar licks and floating, soulful vocals with Conradaxx’s synth-driven production style and sharp drum and bass work.   

The lyrics and title draw inspiration from the east-asian belief of the red string of faith where it’s thought that the gods tie an invisible red cord around the ankles or fingers of those that are destined to meet one another in a certain situation. In this situation, the two destined lovers are brought together by an Agelaius -an American blackbird with a red stripe in its wing- which represents the red string.

Hailing from Medellín Colombia, Paper Orchids is the music project from Federico García Vélez who started playing guitar at the age of 8. Ever since then, the world of rock, metal, punk, and pop has revolved around him. He loves intricate pieces and lyrics with depth; he composes most of his tracks on his Epiphone Les Paul Traditional Pro and his Ibanez Zebrawood.
