← Back | Musician | 3 Music Videos
El Guincho, the stage name for Pablo Díaz-Reixa, is a Spanish musician predominantly known for his unique amalgamation of tropicalia, afrobeat, and psychedelic pop. He has been recognised as a trendsetter in the industry for his gift in blurring genre lines and taking listeners on a sonic journey quite unlike any other. Releasing his debut album Alegranza in 2007, his sounds had an electrifying effect on the music industry, paving an unconventional path for others to follow by showcasing the harmonious blend of diverse cultural music capabilities.
A dab hand in experimentation, Díaz-Reixa's musical genius is also reflected in his music videos, demonstrating an uncanny ability to create visual feasts that amplify the resonance of his music. Take the mystical video for "Bombay" for instance, directed by the imaginative collective Canada. It is an absurdly stunning montage of seemingly unrelated scenes bouncing off one another—full of sultry seduction, scientific imagery, and surreal landscapes. Another video, "Comix", directed by Díaz-Reixa himself, seems to draw inspiration from 80s aesthetic vibes. It features a breakout role from fellow Spanish musician Mala Rodriguez, whose quirky, defiant on-screen chemistry with El Guincho is rather compelling. But here's the kicker—despite these delightful visual tapestries, Díaz-Reixa has confessed to being a terrible dancer. It adds an extra layer of charm to know that the man behind those infectious beats prefers to remain at the sidelines when it comes to dance floor shenanigans.
