Background and recording
editThe album was recorded in Caracas in 2009, on fairly independent terms. Guitarist Daniel De Sousa happened to be studying engineering at the time, and took on designing a distortion pedal that was used on the album. The synths were designed/programmed by fellow Venezuelan artist Arca, then known as Nuuro.
In popular culture
editThe song "El Buen Salvaje" is included in the video game FIFA 12, winning the MTV Game Awards 2012 for "Best song in a video game".
"Radio Capital" is present in the Rockstar's video game Grand Theft Auto V, in which it is played on the East Los FM station.
