Humming with the tactile buzz of waveforms, Mexico City’s Rey Pila blends the pulsing drive of synthwave with wailing post-punk emotions. The group’s focus on electronics comes through via analog pads oozing dramatic sustain like an overactive fog machine. When punctuated with staccato keys and singer Diego Solórzano’s wavering new wave vocals, the band functions as an amalgamation of the icy sounds of the early ‘80s—warmed up by the major-key anthems of modern guitar pop.
