Single is the solo vehicle for Teresa Iturrioz, a central figure in the Spanish 'Donosti Sound' (San Sebastián) scene. Following her tenure in the influential bands Aventuras de Kirlian and Le Mans, Single represents a more avant-garde and personal evolution of indie pop.
Working closely with producer Ibon Errazkin, Iturrioz has developed a sound identity defined by extreme minimalism, prominent melodic basslines, and a dry, 'close-mic' vocal production that eschews traditional pop reverb. Their work often incorporates elements of dub, dancehall, and jazz, but strips them of their typical density to fit a skeletal pop framework. Critically, Single is lauded for elevating the 'twee' origins of Spanish indie into something more mature, surreal, and intellectually rigorous. They occupy a unique space in the Elefant Records roster, bridging the gap between accessible pop melodies and experimental sound design. Their influence is felt across the Spanish-speaking indie world, particularly among artists who favor lyrical wit and rhythmic restraint over rock dynamics.
