Music: Juana Molina

Been listening to Juana Molina for a while now, and her stuff is really interesting. You might call it a bit "off ballance" but brilliant.

If you like really "produced" sounding music, probalby won't like it, but for me, I like stuff that's a bit off-kilter. Music that's too clean will lull my brain into boredome. At the same time, if it's too OFF, it'll be distracting.

Two tracks of note, right now:

La Verdad, from the album Son
Isabel, from the album Tres Cosas

-- if you liked Bjork back in the day (or now) you're more likely to appreciate Juana Molina. Not to say they are, at all, the same, but... they're both just enough off the normal keel to make for great workin-to music.

Cheers!
