The name of the band can be translated as Mateo from the moon with terrestrial company and started as a one man project (Mateo). Later, two of his friends became his terrestrial company.

ALFONSO EL PINTOR LA CASA ROSADA DE ALFONSO EL PINTOR (independent, 2009)

Alfonso el Pintor is a band from Buenos Aires and is a celebration of colorful, bubblegum-ish, romantic and naive indiepop.
It all started in 2004 with Emiliano Sánchez and soon the solo project became a band. The guitar driven music with moments of electronic percussions is often adorable and in songs like 'Nuestra Canción' and 'Te Gusta el Rock' you wish they were somehow solid so you could eat them. I bet they'd taste sweet as a pink marshmallow.

You can get their debut CDR Buen Día Te Quiero Mucho (Good morning I want you so bad) -from 2005- and their latest (and only) LP La Casa Rosada de Alfonso el Pintor (The pink house of Alfonso el Pintor) - 2009 - at their website for free.
A new album is set to be released later this year.

paraná

entre rios ~ paraná (preview)

soon the new album of argentina's entre rios will be out (september, 24). great news! this is quite significant because it's a celebration of their 10th anniversary.

even with the band members changing throughout the years, their sound still has the early freshness that puts me in this summery-feel-good mood...

anyway, you can check a new song called 'paraná' (a river name and also a state of brazil).
