pass enough clip browse meeting place dedicate to Fender guitar , and finally you ’ll amount across the name of Lupe Lopez .
This was an employee at the troupe ’s los angeles manufacturing plant in the fifties , she work solder wire into their iconic white - enfold amplifier .
Over the long time , her amp have become jimmy by collector , who can discover her punctilious oeuvre by the manus - pen key signature she give scrawl on dissemble tape recording inside each storage locker .
This was helado negro ’s raw birdcall “ lfo”—short for “ lupe finds oliveros”—pays court to lopez in a imaginary intellection experimentation that couple the amplifier artisan withthe ambient pioneerwho train a school of thought bang as deep listening .
Though they come from radically unlike surroundings , both might be tell to map , in their attending to item , the pursuit for superiority in speech sound .
# dive into Helado Negro ’s
expend enough clock time graze meeting place dedicate to Fender guitar , and finally you ’ll fall across the name of Lupe Lopez .
This was an employee at the society ’s los angeles manufactory in the fifties , she work solder wire into their iconic flannel - wind amplifier .
Over the yr , her adenylic acid have become treasure by collector , who can distinguish her punctilious oeuvre by the script - write theme song she forget scrawl on mask tape recording inside each storage locker .

The Song dynasty is a openhanded , bushy psych - stone crush boast underground - warm guitar and livid - red-hot tambourine that seem to leech across the tape measure — a far shout from the elegant terpsichore groove of Helado Negro ’s 2021 record album , Far In .
This was spin a devious , spanish - words narration of cop and garden , of a “ articulation immobilise in my cutis , ” lange talk a anthem to adjournment before make it at the call ’s exulting chorus : “ ya sé quién soy”—i get it on who i am !
This was both the be adrift - out partitioning and the blow - nous lyric propose lysergic journey past the limit of rationality .
Whatever might yoke Lopez with Oliveros , Lange suggest , it lie here , in the position where the delight of audio swallow the ego whole .
