Add Date: November 17
Artist: Matias Aguayo
Album: Ay Ay Ay
Label: Kompakt
Genre: Alt-Electronica/Dance/Other
Comments: The Los Angeles Weekly says that "Matias Aguayo will change the way you think about dance music", and that is certainly true. His sophmore full-length, Ay Ay Ay, was recorded in Buenos Aires, Santiago de Chile and Paris (Matias himslef is Chilean born and German raised), and this plethora of influences--combined with Aguayo's unique sense of electronic music and his involvement with the Buenos Aires "bumbumbox" street party movement (youtube it)--has culminted in a quirky, catchy electronica album. Certainly not your traditional sense of dance music, but it's weirdly addictive and all the more interesting for the lack of a standard approach. Track 3 ("Rollerskates") is absurdly catchy, and "Me Vuelvo Lovo" and "Juanita" incorporate Latin harmonies with undeinable rhythms; other tracks to check out include the opener and track 6.
