All photography by Louis Hartnoll, though evidence of the stage invasion exists at the Discoteca Oceano ‘blog. Babelfish Translation reckons the poster there (Felix Ruiz III, I think) thought, “The concert in himself was perfect. Stage invation of which they mark time with gachi extinguishing all the soundsystem. The songs sounded MASSIVE. Power, dances, PA. PA.PA. PA. PA. PA POPE PAPAPAPAPA.”

Guincho-vision

As you may well have noted, NPIP’s rather prone to hypothetics, having it in mind to toss noises out from our imagination so they can exist in situ – witness the placement of Supersoul records into erupted Teutonic cities, Telepathe found hooded on soar-sore night wounders, Stopmakingme waking in teenage bedrooms. Like our own clumsy hacking toward scrapbook symbolism earlier this year, seems El Guincho’s debut album Alegranza will forever reverberate across tropical beachfronts half-remembered from travel brochures, with the parrots and palm trees in ‘Palmitos Park’.
