Explore the Soundscape of Mexico City with “Rio Magdalena”
In late 2022, Splice partnered with the local non-profit organization Suena to delve into the intricate relationship between Mexico City and its natural environment through sound. This project uncovers the echoes of history, from the Aztec period to the present, focusing on the precious Rio Magdalena, one of the city’s last remaining water sources.
What’s Inside:
- Authentic Sounds: Experience the historic river, bird calls, and the vibrant sounds of the encroaching cityscape.
- Unique Foley: Discover a variety of interesting foley recordings that capture the essence of daily life in Mexico City.
- Innovative Beats: Some samples have been transformed by DJ and producer Lola Villa into Reggaeton beats, lush cinematic pads, and engaging electronica rhythms.
Cultural Connection:
Local residents hold a deep attachment to Rio Magdalena, which has sadly faced pollution and drying as the city expands. This collection not only preserves these sounds but also highlights their significance in the urban landscape.
Giving Back:
A portion of the proceeds from this pack will support Parque la Cañada, an initiative dedicated to preserving and cleaning the waters of Rio Magdalena.
