Guiro Meets Russia
Folk Psychology
After his record debut in 2016 with Distopya -a work that caught the attention of international specialized media such as The Wire magazine- the electronic duo Güiro Meets Russia publishes its second LP 'Folk Psychology'. Juanvi Fortea and Paco León pick up the formula of analog synthesizers and electric guitars to revise in a very personal way the European proto-electronic heritage of krautrock and the rhythmic patterns of motorik. In this imaginary we find past references such as Neu!, Cluster, and more current ones such as Beak>, Kreidler or Boards Of Canada. It is an epic manifesto of collective despair. An emotional critique of the psychological mechanisms of mass manipulation in contemporary society.
