To add to this rather prolific output, he also issued a self-titled duet album with \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRed Hot Chili Peppers\u003c\/i\u003e guitarist \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJohn Frusciante\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCiencia de los Inutiles\u003c\/i\u003e by \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEl Trio de Omar Rodriguez-Lopez\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSepulcros de Miel\u003c\/i\u003e with \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ethe Omar Rodriguez-Lopez Quartet\u003c\/i\u003e. Others may have issued more records in a single year (\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMadlib\u003c\/i\u003e comes to mind), but none has approached this kind of diversity. \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTychozorente\u003c\/i\u003e is one of \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRodriguez-Lopez\u003c\/i\u003e's most unusual offerings because he plays no guitar; instead he contributes sequencers, programming, synths, and xylophone. \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eElvin Estela\u003c\/i\u003e helps with production and programming and plays bass. \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMarcel Rodriguez-Lopez\u003c\/i\u003e plays Mellotron. Vocals are provided by Grammy-nominated singer\/songwriter and actress \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eXimena Sarinana Rivera\u003c\/i\u003e -- a frequent collaborator. Clocking in at just over 31 minutes, this eight-song collection is moody, atmospheric, sensual, cinematic, and sometimes foreboding. Standout tracks include \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Polardidad\"\u003c\/i\u003e with its xylophone and Mellotron. The cut opens slowly, hesitantly, providing a set of rhythms approaching \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLes Baxter\u003c\/i\u003e's more exotic moments -- without all the other instrumental bluster. When \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSarinana Rivera\u003c\/i\u003e enters, the track moves toward something wholly other, like a Spanish-language love song from outer space. The insistent, crunchy programmed rhythm track on \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Piedras y Ansiedad\"\u003c\/i\u003e creates a sense of drama before she sings -- in English this time -- and the rhythm track then takes a club, four-to-the-floor direction. Given the song's pop melody, it's easy to see why she was nominated for Grammys. Ultimately, the hardcore \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRodriguez-Lopez\u003c\/i\u003e guitar freak fans may scratch their heads and pass on this, but it's their loss if they do. The songwriting is top-notch, the arrangements and production are stellar, and the performances are inspired. It all adds up to \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTychozorente\u003c\/i\u003e being one of the most bewitching records in \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRodriguez-Lopez\u003c\/i\u003e's already formidable catalog. ~ Thom Jurek\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AMS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43143542145222,"sku":"4250795604334","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/silveradocustomhomesinc.com\/s\/files\/1\/1377\/6983\/files\/4250795604334.jpg?v=1707154755","url":"https:\/\/www.silveradocustomhomesinc.com\/products\/omar-rodriguez-lopez-tychozorente-new-lp-record-2024-clouds-hill-vinyl-prog-rock-psychedelic","provider":"silveradocustomhomesinc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
