about

Xibalbá es una palabra de origen maya y podría traducirse como “infierno”.

De acuerdo con la mitología Maya el Xibalbá es el mundo subterráneo regido por los espíritus de la enfermedad y la muerte. Antiguamente, los mayas creían que los cenotes eran entradas a este lugar, por lo cual los chamanes realizaban un ritual de purificación dentro del cenote para poder cerciorarse que la gente pudiera mojarse sin tener que atravesar este portal al inframundo.

Este EP fue creado a partir de una serie de grabaciones que Xaman llevo acabo a lo largo de su viaje en la Riviera Maya. En los dos tracks originales que componen este trabajo, se puede escuchar a un “originario” de la zona relatando en su idioma natal como es que el chaman llevaba a cabo los rituales de purificación para que las personas pudieran ingresar a los cenotes.

Xibalbá no solo es el primer EP de este joven productor mexicano, es también un trabajo de rescate cultural que busca transmitir las costumbres y sabiduría de estos pueblos precolombinos. A todo esto se le une una interpretación del productor brasileño, cabeza del label Frente Bolivarista: Pigmalião.

I literally cannot stop listening to this album. This desperately needs a full vinyl pressing. The 4-track doesn't do it justice. ajckid
