His album "ALEGRANZA" has been released in Spain and across the states to
critical acclaim and he's hotly tipped for big things this year.
Here's what the press have to say:
Referring to his single Fata Morgana, "a bright tropical glow to the production; the buoyant percussion and chanted vocals of Os Mutantes... It's just over three minutes long and you wish like hell it was six, which is I suppose where the "Repeat" part comes in.
" - Pitchfork
"Pieced together from bits of wreckage, this is music created in glorious isolation, drawing on its own influences to create something just as fresh and just as joyous; drifting out into the ocean on its own shonky raft.
" - Drowned In Sound 8/10
"This past week we found ourself unable to stop listening to "Antillas," a five-minute bundle of clattering loops and sunny harmonies, from Barcelona-via-Canary Islands one-man band El Guincho... and his entirely addictive self-released Alegranza".
Stereogum - Band To Watch
"El Guincho rocks joyous drum party jams with the contagious enthusiasm of Animal Collective" - 20 Jazz Funk Greats Blog
"When listening to the opening notes of El Guincho's (a/k/a Pablo Diaz Reixa) Alegranza you know that you are hearing something truly special. It is one of those albums whose influences are so vast and plentiful that it is both disorienting and utterly beautiful at the same time.
