A Forest (The Cure)

As its name says I had to just do it, publish these songs albeit them being recorded in a live session with the errors and audio glitches it means.

99% of it was recorded on an Korg Electribe 2, in my first attempts at it, in late 2021.

A blend of grungyness and crust, this beautiful little song brings the basics of ecoterrorism back to the pop scene. You can dance to it, reflect about it, brood on it, start a circuit soldering course while listening to it... whatever you want man. See you at the cabin.

PS: Also one of a few songs out there with "Erlenmeyer flask" in its lyrics.

Kitchen Improvised Plastic Explosives II

Lo-fi, utterly cynical and with a dash of b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶ ̶m̶e̶t̶a̶l̶ pop, The Darkstars gained sentient automation in Argentine soil at the beginning of the 203rd decade.

Started as an electronic project focused into D&D soundtracks for friends, after the addition of guitars and vocals it expanded into psychedelic rock, post-punk... and grunge?

And if you ever wondered about the name, it comes from "Dark Star" a 1974 film you should watch.
