 Formed
in 2000, Lady Bombon is a boy and a girl from Mexico
City who use samplers, rhythm boxes, keyboards and
guitars to make a brilliant and strange new rhythm
fusion. Chuchelas (the boy) and Hongo (the girl) blend
punk, pop, roc, and electro, inspired by the 80s and
90s sounds they both grew up listening to. Originally,
the two made music just for fun, as something that
relaxed them, but after they recorded their first
demo and gave it to friends, they realized it could
be something more than just a hobby. The two then
began to play in bars and other venues and with different
bands. What Lady Bombon proposes is that taking music
seriously also means playing for fun, living in the
moment and making that moment feel better. Such musical
play involves experimentation--developing sounds unlike
the other music out there. Fun and games are a part
of Lady Bombon's visual look, too--the band performs
in wild costumes that rhyme with their wide range
of musical influences.
Gigaboy is a project created by Chuchelas (Mexico)
and his guest Sebastian Comelli (Uruguay), with headquarters
in Mexico City. Its purpose is to experiment in mixing
popular music (or folk music) with electronic music.
While Gigaboy's influences are wide-ranging, the project
draws particularly on 70s folk rock and 90s electronic
music. Gigaboy has played with various DJ's in many
places and often appears with Lady Bombon. A first
EP will be independently released late 2005.
