Chicano Batman: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2020
- The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
Felix Contreras | July 7, 2020
It's very appropriate that Chicano Batman's Tiny Desk Home Concert comes with the band members in four separate boxes.
The group has been an Alt.Latino favorite, almost from the beginning, and I've always enjoyed listening to how creatively they've crafted their musical identity with layers of sound, from vintage organs to the most nuanced of funk grooves. So, watching them in their individual Hollywood-Squares-type boxes is the visual equivalent to how I listen to them.
The songs performed are from their new album, Invisible People which, coincidentally, is a major shift in their group sound. As you hear in songs like "Polymetronomic Harmony," their sound is now much denser, with full-on references to a variety of influences, including the 1973, Herbie Hancock funk-jazz classic Head Hunters, which makes a walk-on appearance in the stack of vinyl just behind guitarist Carlos Arévalo.
Vocalist and keyboardist, Bardo Martinez, bassist, Eduardo Arenas, and drummer, Gabriel Villa all close their eyes during the performances, and you can both see and hear how they mentally inhabit the same musical place that has made them a favorite and clubs and festivals for nearly ten years, now.
Even as they each perform in their home music spaces, they can't avoid bringing it all together to give us a Chicano Batman performance that grooves hard and brings a smile to our faces.

Such a great tiny desk, never been happier to go to bed after 2 am, Chicano Batman ILY
Polymetronomic Harmony is literally god work and cures my depression episodes every time.
Outstanding set! Invisible People is easily my top album of the year to this point, and it's going to be hard to top. Moment Of Joy has been my top jam since the first listen, so so amazing to see it performed. But wow that performance of Polymetronomic Harmony as well 🤯 4 talented dudes making top notch music. If this aint for you, than it aint for you.. move along. But this? This is for me and it makes my soul happy.. and I'm not alone.

They sound like the 90s anime opening soundtracks.
