Presenting the third volume of Keroxen's annual series of Radar compilations, joining the musical dots between restless and free-spirited artists working across the Canary archipelago.
With volume 1 loosely based around the indie and shoegazing art rock sounds made in the Islands, and a second volume exploring the experimental electronic music of Tenerife, we now welcome Volume 3, with a special showcase of Canary artists working from the diaspora.
Meet the hallucinatory acid folk from Tarragona based artist Transistor Eye, Amsterdam’s trio Halli Crigi raw, jazz/noise guitar improvisation, the glitchy and abstract piano minimalism by Sweden based Hara Alonso and the custom made midi based electronic orchestral compositions by Berlin based visual artist Arístides García aka Anisotrópico. Each artist delivers approximately 10 minutes of unique music which mixed together creates a weird and surprisingly fluid psychedelic journey, wrapped up as it’s always the case with these series in the pastoral retro-futurist collage artwork by Canarian artist Pura Márquez.
Another document showcasing the other side of this holiday destination, it’s not just hotel resorts and poolside lounging here, enter the wonderful and weird world of Keroxen.

El tercer volumen de la serie de recopilaciones Radar de Keroxen.
Tras un primer volumen basado en los sonidos más indie y shoegaze de las Islas, y un segundo volumen que explora la música electrónica experimental de Tenerife, damos la bienvenida al volumen 3, con una muestra especial de artistas canarios que trabajan desde la diáspora.
Conozca el alucinante acid folk del artista tarraconense Transistor Eye, la cruda improvisación de guitarra jazz/noise del trío de Amsterdam Halli Crigi, el minimalismo de piano glitchy y abstracto del sueco Hara Alonso y las composiciones orquestales electrónicas personalizadas basadas en midi del artista visual berlinés Arístides García aka Anisotrópico. Cada artista ofrece aproximadamente 10 minutos de música única que, mezclada, crea un viaje psicodélico extraño y sorprendentemente fluido, envuelto, como siempre ocurre con estas series, en el collage pastoral retrofuturista de la artista canaria Pura Márquez.
Otro documento que muestra la otra cara de este destino de vacaciones, aquí no sólo hay complejos hoteleros y relax junto a la piscina, adéntrate en el maravilloso y extraño mundo de Keroxen.
