Barrio Lindo - Espuma De Mar (White Vinyl)

In 2019, whilst touring Japan, Barrio Lindo found himself moving away from the dance floor,
instead getting lost in his headphones while listening to music that dismissed genre, oscillating
between jazz, chamber orchestras and electronica. As a producer at the forefront of Latin America’s
folktronica scene over the last 10 years, Agustín Rivaldo, to give Barrio Lindo his given name, has
proven himself more than adept at crafting soundscapes that can transport listeners, full of detail
and nuance, but they always had to pander to the club and its duty to keep revellers energised. The
epiphany in Japan necessitated a change in direction, to make music that people could get lost in,
and which also meant he could revert to his younger self, that guy in his twenties playing guitar
with his friends, just for fun. So he booked a studio on the outskirts of Buenos Aires in early 2020
and invited some friends over; the idea was simple, let’s play some music and see where it takes us.
