For fans of the indie-electro duo Crystal Castles, the news of the band’s sudden break up hit hard and fast. This is always the case when bands break up however, it feels almost as personal as the break up of a parental couple or, in some cases if the band is truly close to your heart, it can feel as if YOU have been broken up with.

Few groups in Brazil’s new music scene have managed to build such a distinctive identity as Os Garotin. Drawing from soul music, R&B, samba, and MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), the trio formed by Leo Guima, Anchietx, and Cupertino has found a language that feels both familiar and entirely new at the same time. After attracting
Clementaum belongs to a new generation of artists who understand the dancefloor as a form of spectacle. Blending music, performance, and image-making, her presence evokes the energy of a pop star while remaining deeply rooted in the club culture that shapes her identity.
