Comment: In the previous year I discovered for myself some excellent shoegaze/psychedelic/experimental indie groups like This Lonely Crowd and Inverness from Brazil. No doubt, the Latin American-based music has established a solid aesthetic level amongst the indie music realm, though, having unsung and underrated reputation around the world nowadays yet. Panorama comes from Medellín, Colombia, having recorded since 2001. Their fourth release does veer from ordinary, slightly psychedelic-drenched indie pop (Trampa; Tapete rojo) and atmospheric synth progressions around shoegaze-relied wraiths (Sol brillar; Hola/Adiós) to catchy, danceable soul funk (No encuentro las palabras). By the way, all the songs are spanish-sung.
