PREMIERE: Ópalo - Todo Lo Sólido Se Desvanece En El Aire [Caracteres]

The inaugural release of the Quito-based record label, Caracteres sees the debut LP from Ópalo, the project of talented producer Alejandro Romero, with whom we got familiar a few months ago when we premiered his track, Tiempo, which came out on Futurepast.
Using drum machines, synths, and keyboards, Ópalo explores ambient, IDM, and leftfield realms, and all that spiced up with a good old trip-hop.
For his album 'La Edad Invisible,' Alejandro worked closely with Joaquin Dávila, who asked Alejandro to make music for his video art projects.
Our premiere for today, 'Todo Lo Sólido Se Desvanece En El Aire,' sounds like it is made for some video art project. With its lush drone, vocoder sequence, and melancholy melody, the track creates a somewhat gloomy atmosphere reminiscent of the end of the journey, the start of the new chapter, and the great unknown.
'La Edad Invisible' LP is coming out on January 22 via Caracteres.
