Pelada

Their debut album Movimiento Para Cambio (2019) released by Berlin experimental electronic label PAN was described by Pitchfork as having a "subtly fraught quality—lovely as a sunset, yet disturbed by a hidden undercurrent—feels like the duo’s way of acknowledging our fundamental vulnerability",[2] while AllMusic defined the group as a "punk-informed, revolution-minded dance duo from Montreal."[3] DJ Mag called them "a vital and contemporary addition dance music’s punk canon."[4] Mixmag included them on the "Best Albums of The Decade" list saying "[a] fierce sense of urgency drives the Montreal duo’s debut album. Producer Tobias Rochman lays a foundation of bright rave synths, palpitating Latin percussive rhythms, atmospheric trance and earth-shattering acid, which vocalist Chris Vargas takes to another level with acid-tongued lyrical delivery, delving into themes spanning patriarchal oppression to surveillance culture to the impending climate catastrophe in sharp Spanish language polemics."[5]

Furthermore, Movimiento Para Cambio was featured on The Guardian's "Albums and Tracks of 2019",[6] Resident Advisor's "2019's Best Albums",[7] Fact Mag's "Best Albums of 2019",[8] and topped Stereogum's "10 Best Electronic Albums of 2019" list[9]

Pelada have toured extensively throughout North America with punk groups such as Iceage,[10] as well as festivals in Mexico,[11][12] and raves in Russia[13] and Europe,[14] including clubs such as Berlin super club Berghain.[15]
