Pleased to Meet You: Rulitos

Daniel Sanchez reached out to me a bit ago concerning his new project, Rulitos. He described it as sort of an imaginary AirBnB where the ghosts of Nick Drake and Elliott Smith might be lounging and listening to records by Aphex Twin or Nils Frahm. For me, that’s a perfect description, as the four tracks on EP 1 weave back and forth between English and Spanish, utilizing the softness in Sanchez’s voice to unify the mixture between beats and strum of the guitar. On the single below, just listen as the song moves into more ambient territory, with Daniel celebrating all his influences in a tight little 3 minute package. You can celebrate the release of Rulitos’ EP 1 if you’re in Austin by stopping by Vaquero Taquero for a release show with Fuvk, Sprig and Cloud Companion. Otherwise, the EP is out via Flyer Club on June 28th!
