El Guincho

El Guincho is the recording alias of Spanish musician Pablo Díaz-Reixa. Also a member of Coconot, Díaz-Reixa rose to prominence with his 2008 album, "Alegranza!". His musical style, which often finds him compared to artists like Animal Collective and Os Mutantes [ [http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/2876293 DrownedinSound - "Alegranza!" review] ] , relies heavily on the use of sampling and incorporates elements of Afrobeat, dub, Tropicália and rock and roll [ [http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/48842-alegranza Pitchfork Media - "Alegranza!" review] ] as Díaz-Reixa toils to arrive at what he's described himself as a kind of "space-age exotica". [ [http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/2956587 DrownedinSound - DiScover feature] ] He utilizes a Roland SP-404. He is also known as El Guincho de Tortilla.
