Comment: this set of 5 compositions is the demonstration of female power by Amanda Irarrazabal, Cecilia López, and Cecilia Quinteros who play a synthesizer, a double bass, and a cello, respectively. In fact, this handful of tracks could be considered one lengthy track as well because the theme and formal appearances are the same. Formally throughout a 31-minute it chimes like the big shriek of a rusty door moving from one side to the other one. At times those short atonal splashes and shrieks will progress into drones. It does have a bit ivory tower effect upon me due to having drawn-out encapsulated and buried moves while providing a few progressions and a monochromatic timbre only. I could imagine if it was heard by the bourgeoisie most of them would consider it as weird, and irrational yet having been performed in a buttoned-up place they would think of it as put up for them and thereafter forget it by going home. It was recorded live on August 24, 2017 at Cuatro Tres, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The issue is a bit in the discography of pan y rosas discos.
