Comment: Mayra Yasmin Harazatey aka HIJ▲is a
frenetic chic from Argentina whose 5-track issue is a hectic amalgamation of
hirsute guitar progressions, psychedelic synthesizers, warped and uncanny electronics,
mutant vocals and sonic/stereo effects and bristled baroque-alike dodges and panoramas.
Stylistically her spectre extends from shoegaze and blues-induced slaps to more
dada influenced cabaret music. However, at times her soundscape will be calmed
down speaking in the language of murmurs and through the interaction of lone
chords (the first half at No Te Creas).
By kindred souls there can be drawn parallels upon the likes of PJ Harvey, Laurie
Anderson, Maja Ratkje, and Juana Molina, for instance. It is cutting edge for
sure.
