Venezuelan singer-songwriter Ulises Hadjis brings the fourth single off of his second album, “Cosas Perdidas”. This time with the help of Denise Gutiérrez, singer of the Mexican band Hello Seahorse.

Latin Grammys, MTV Iggy, a contract with National Records… Everyone has fallen in love with this four guys from Caracas and their ambitious project. This The Shins-inspired riff and lyrics concerning the state of our country – where young people emigrate everyday in search of a better future in some other place – has had a huge impact on the Venezuelan alternative scene.

Did I mention this is my favorite act in Venezuela? Presidente is the alter ego of Heberto Anez Novoa (keyboard player in TLX). This melancholic song is a great example of his poetic songwriting that reminds us – in Junot Diaz words – that “the half-life of love is forever”.

“Apache” comes from the first EP of this songwriting duo based in Caracas. They’re just beginning their career but they’ve already made an interesting statement about what folk music could sound like.

This rock pop band with a great deal of Bolero influences was the biggest musical novelty in the Caracas scene last year. This song was responsible for that.

Just recently this band has announced their breakup. This song is gonna make you mourn them.

Linda Sjöquist delivers a folksy pop caressing the ears of the listener. Unique and haunting sonic landscape that captures a dreamy picture of the sea and its surroundings.
