Escampe did have released their first releases on the imprint A
Regueifa Plataforma which had been an outlet for musicians singing in
Galician, a local language in Spain having at least as much
similarity to Portuguese as to Spanish/Castilian. As much as I have
understood
A vida dos Animais is their last
issue embracing so far unpublished, demo and compilations-related
tracks from the years 2012-2018. Musically it is as transgressive as
they are linguistically (they sing in English as well). Lots of
experiments within the genre of indie/alt-folk with melodies, timbres
and harmonies. Fortunately all these experiments are finely balanced
with the acceptance of beauty oozing out from these chords. By their
attitude they remind of Wilco by incorporating many elements into the
embodiment of folk music. For example, at excellent
Evita one
can immerse in an enchanting noise pop/folk crossover. Lots of
electricity, sweat and desire could you find out from there.
Maycar
is a nice cover of a classic Motown track.
Musica Veliz is as
cinematic as it is thoroughly dreamy. It is a fine example of how to
create and convey a mood. Undoubtedly a combo which deserves more
attention.
