June Outlook: Chile
Centella and Oddo – Nazca Lines
A new single that continues to anticipate what will be Centella's debut album, a project led by Antonio Caballero. On this occasion, the musician gets together with the producer and artist, Oddó, and they go through the streets of Santiago de Chile to represent through street graphic lines what our personal and collective identity is, with the same passers-by as protagonists of a clip by Sebastian Ciavaglia.
«This single is one of my first approaches to minimal sound, more direct in terms of lyrics. We are talking about identity, something complex and dense, but approached from a simple point of view, applied to everyday life, with contradictions like everything else. It is not a declaration of principles, it is a conversation that can be about the Chilean identity, like the personal one," Centella said the day the clip, in which we see how in our own cities, perhaps, new Nazca Lines that make up a chaotic identity, a revolt of influences. A continuation of the infinite definitions that Latin can have. Our favorite verse of the song that we look forward to singing live soon:
/among Latinos it is not appropriate
Being Chilean, what's your turn?
I appropriate pure gringos
from Mondays to Sundays/

And although Diego comes from the global south, he immersed himself in fantasy with a rumba lorenzinisada, possessed by the spirit of Peret and of course, as always, hand in hand with his friends, with whom he records this wonderful video clip:
