Mexico City based band Mint Field is one of these bands that make it shine. Guided by Estrella del Sol and Sebastian Neyra, Mint Field creates a unique blend of avant dream pop and shoegaze with some touches of trip hop that explores the nostalgia and melancholy of daily life with strong guitars and voices that are like sighs. Instrumentation and atmospheres are accompanied by delicate, harmonious and ethereal voices that are a fundamental part of the sound.
With 4 studio albums, a live album and 2 EP’s, the band has been praised, highlighted or featured over the years at outlets like NPR, KEXP, Pitchfork, NTS, Rolling Stone, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan and more. Mint Field is still led by vocalist and guitarist Estrella del Sol with Sebastian Neyra on bass and Reona Sugimoto on drums.
New York based multi-instrumentalist, producer, and artist Avishag Cohen Rodrigues has been making her mark on the scene with a signature sound. Aloof, detached, and vulnerable – Rodrigues’ music is complex yet raw. With a range of genres in rock, low fi, dark electronic, noise, and experimental – Rodrigues weaves songs and stories with electric guitars dipped in synths, overflowing sound textures, and coy lyricism.
Her debut EP ‘One Winter One Hunter’ was released in 2019 following with a debut album ‘Islands’ in 2022. In addition to her solo releases, Rodrigues has been making her mark in the music scene a s the guitarist of New York’s all female post punk band cumgirl8 (4AD). Rodrigues also lends herself as a guitarist and synth player in different projects and ensembles including Laila, Ryskinder, Yonatan Gat (Stone Tapes /Joyful Noise). Playing a wide range of shows – from Europe and North America’s major festival circuits to fashion events and sweaty punk squats, Rodrigues’ live performance feels like long nights in smoky rooms, where rock n roll meets club. Raw electronic landscapes with bold, cutting electric guitars topped with her dark, minimal, wet and affected vocals.
Her latest release ‘All Happens At Night’ was recorded during the winter in between two distressing events, her MFA at Columbia University and a Global Pandemic. The EP was developed in New York and recorded in Berlin. Born in the solacing void of the night, in a space where “doors are closed, and there’s not much happening outside, a feeling of certain sacredness, a different experience of space and time, far away from the dictated, packed daytime”.
