Just another unpleasant type of Santiago

I met Cristóbal Briceño thanks to a former high school classmate, as in April or May 2014. At that time, along with the Ases Falsos (the most media band he has ever participated in), they were preparing to release their second album, "Conducción".

I think one of the things that most captivated me about him was his frenzied rhythm of creations. In addition, some of his lyrics contain elements so everyday, but so deep at the same time, that they end up creating something special, such as in "Nunca se apaga", from his first band, "Fother Muckers":

“Soy el ruido de letreros de neón

el zumbido de cada una de los tubos fluorescentes.

Soy hermano de los silos de plata

que se esparcen a oriente y poniente de la Ruta 5”.

Despite its unquestionable quality of interpretation and writing, I have quite a lot more critical comments about its way of being. It can become very irritable and ironic, easily exploding at a suspicious question. Anyway, in his solo albums he has taken great liberties, showing that he knows what his audience wants. As he once said, he himself does not hope and does not wish to succeed now, but, in the distant future, according to him, they will appreciate him more or perhaps better than they do today.

My favorite piece of technology

My favorite piece of technology is, without a doubt, my current but old cellphone. I buy this phone as far as six years ago, when I stay in the secondary school, and always my best friend or my brother make fun of your limited memory.
