retroViSOR – Chicha! (2014, Colombia)

Continuing our journey through the epic Fedi-sourced catalogue of must-hear albums, our next spotlight is on number 467 on The List, submitted by Cyrus. retroViSOR was a multimedia project formed in 2004 by Carmen Gil Vrolijk, a professor with an interest in video art and videomapping, alongside composer Camilo Giraldo Angel. Their use of images and video was just as important as the music, all of it merged together to both celebrate Colombian history + music and raise awareness about the issues the Colombian people and land were(/are) experiencing. Electronic music with bite, best experienced live but still a beautiful listen.
