Martín & Teté
Teté Leguía (bass) and Martín Escalante (sax) explore the extremes of noise music and performance. Never resorting to distortion or effects pedals they have both spent years developing extended techniques in order to find original sounds and unmatched intensity using their traditional instruments. Their first time playing together was a chance meeting in Lima while performing in trio alongside drummer Miguel Flores (Pax) in 2014. Immediately they began plotting an album which they were finally able to record at Lasse Marhaug’s Best Studio in Oslo and then make into a CD on Peru’s Buh Records in 2016. Tours in Mexico and Peru followed shortly after as well as two more cassette albums on Escalante’s own Sploosh Records, Huachafa (2017) and Monkey Cop (2018) which was re-issued on CD in 2020. This fall (2021) they will perform and tour for the first time in the USA.
