MATEO EDUARDO - VINYL LA MAQUINA DEL TIEMPO, LA MOSCA [VINYL]

Popis - LA MAQUINA DEL TIEMPO, LA MOSCA [VINYL]:
Released towards the end of 1989, 'La Mosca' was the last job by the mythical Eduardo Mateo (1940-1990), one of the most influential artists in Uruguayan music. Although Mateo was a remarkable percussionist and was very well known for his short songs, with simple lyrics, where Uruguayan roots are mixed with Brazilian, African, Indian and Arabic influences, on his last album, his work took a turn on a brand-new direction.
Alongside the multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer Hugo Jasa, they weaved together a futuristic sound, based on drum machine beats, keyboards, and electronically processed both guitars and vocals to create an atmosphere through sturdy texts with references to machines, to the future, to time and the cosmos. At first received with confusion, today 'La Mosca' continues to cause a mysterious fascination that persists and deepens through the passing of time.
