Was there any obsession, fixed idea, or image that guided the creative process of the album, even if it is not evident to the listener?
<\/strong>The creative process was guided by two things. On the one hand, and quite consciously, the intention was to approach the twee pop of Sarah Records and the pop being made in Australia: Dick Diver, Boomgates, the goon sax, possible humans\u2014these are bands we love, and there aren't many Spanish-language projects that understand pop in that way. On the other hand, and quite unconsciously, the process of Paula and I (Jose) becoming parents has also played a decisive role because it inevitably immerses you in the dimension of childhood and also in the grief of losing yourself. I think that's reflected in most of the lyrics.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was the process of deciding which songs would and wouldn't be part of the album?
<\/strong>In our case, we considered leaving out the songs that sounded most like Futuro Terror, since \u00d3scar and I (Jose) came from that well-known project and wanted to distance ourselves from it. We considered leaving out \"Aurora Roja\" and \"Rat Penat\" for that reason, but ultimately included all the tracks on an album that's also very short, so without them it would have been far too short. But the main reason for including them was realizing that everyone who listened to it liked different songs, including these, and that we don't take ourselves too seriously.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What changed in the way of writing, recording, or producing on this album compared to previous recordings?
<\/strong>Above all, we were looking for a very clean guitar sound and an original texture. We didn't want to sound like all the other bands in what's now called bedroom pop. We wanted to sound different, we wanted to sound Australian, even though we obviously aren't, and something else came out that we really liked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
