The band's multi-cultural upbringing is represented throughout the EP. As the tracks move from surreal dreamy tunes to upbeat darker melodies. FARO is highly influenced by the band's childhood memories growing up in the Tijuana border town. 'FARO represents the Tijuana way of life,' says vocalist Monica Camacho. 'Tijuana has no style or labels just like our music. When we were working on the EP we wanted to create a different musical sound.' The end result is a four song EP with no musical boundaries. A juxtaposition of spacious harmonic textures and suspended melodies coupled with sensitive timbric shades. FARO takes listeners on a cross genre musical journey from the haunting melodies of Splendid to the innocent, sweet sound of Twinkle. Siempre Fue, the band's only song in Spanish is beautifully thematic with deep electronic beats and dreamlike vocals highlighting the band's unique sound.
