NotesThe album isn't really as rugged as they make it sound, though it does feel completely different from La Bien Querida's past work. For example, the opening track is a solid techno, close to acid-house ("Arenas Movedizas"), which is lit up by Ana, sweet and robotic, intoning a spiraling melody that seems to invent a spaced-out flamenco. You could even say they take LOS PLANETAS' experiment with interpreting flamenco through kraut-rock to the extreme. The result is fascinating because it maintains Ana's magical, naïve serenity. "Hechicera" could pass for a folk-song from the mountains of Malaga, interpreted with a total kraut-rock assimilation, from KRAFTWERK to KLF, from SILVER APPLES to NEON INDIAN. Starting from a similar base, "Aurora" is like a flamenco song that exchanges the lament for Ana's sweet fragility and keeps it's ability to be chilling, above all when the guitars take the psychedelic flamenco to the orbits of space-rock.
