  • Description

    Mixing the modern sounds of South America with a fresh electro-tinged take on classic new wave, Argentinian duo Bonson Berner is set to release their sophomore album Reflection.

    Bonson Berner is the brainchild of Argentine musician, photographer, painter and architect Lisandro "Pato" Aloi. Following a period of both musical and physical exploration with avant-garde Argentine rock band Siga la Flecha ("Follow the Arrow") Aloi left Buenos Aires and closed his architecture firm in order to set up sonic shop in Los Angeles. Aloi found in Bonson Berner an ideal creative vessel.

    Reflection is reflective of Aloi's intimate, brooding and passionate nature and is his most personal album to date. Producer Guillermo Porro and mixer Eric Corne, who worked on the debut album are back on board, building on the sonics of the previous album; exploring the roots of rock 'n' roll with a fresh and inventive electronic approach. Flourishes of Massive Attack, Goldfrapp, Faithless and Pink Floyd coalesce to create a sophisticated sonic palette. Propulsive emissions like the reverberating title track and the album's first single "Traveling," echo this fresh mesh while "Esta Noche en el Bar" is a sultry stroll on the wild side to an intimate dive where Jobim sips Jim Beam with James Dean. It goes down smooth, emitting a euphoric sheen.
