Carrie

Carrie sounds like the internal monologue of a quiet afternoon. It is music that exists in the soft space between organic folk and digital experimentation, where an acoustic guitar might be interrupted by the rhythmic chirp of a glitch or the warm hum of a synthesizer. The vocals are consistently hushed and intimate, feeling as though they are being whispered directly into the listener's ear from across a small, dimly lit room.

What makes this project distinctive is the way Laura Becerra bridges the gap between the 'twee' sensibilities of early 2000s indie pop and the rigorous, avant-garde electronic scene of Mexico. By collaborating with producers like Fax and Murcof, she elevates simple, melancholic songwriting into something more textural and architectural. It is indietronica that prioritizes the 'indie' heart while utilizing the 'tronica' to create a sense of vast, lonely space.

Start with the album Honey Blue Star. It is the definitive statement of her sound, capturing a specific moment in the Mexican electronic underground where melody and experimental texture lived in perfect harmony. It is essential listening for anyone who finds beauty in the intersection of vulnerability and technology.
