Solo Pasiones...

Rebe started out as a member of the group Luli Rebe and Sus Xocolatinas along with her friend Luli and the omnipresent Cardevore, a travel companion who has helped with production and performances. Her debut release was the cassette, Recuerdos de cuando me aplastó una roca y me morí which sold out in a matter of hours, and came wrapped in fabric that Rebe herself sewed by hand. It included authentic sonic and melodic discoveries mixed with a carefree choice of cover versions. And now, Solo Pasiones... These six songs help us build a little more definition of the work by this artist from the mountains surrounding Madrid: kitsch and bizarre meet sophisticated and contemporary; vintage is filled with Zoomer modernism; elegance is transformed into a still life made with scraps of nineteenth century fantasy and space travel. But let's get to the songs. Como si fuera una mosca could be an impossible gathering between José Luis Perales, Broadcast and Cecilia, seasoned with lyrics that pervert the macabre spirit of the metamorphosis. "jamon" lays some of her best cards on the table: the perverted use of the trashiest Spanish references, turning eroticism into a dreamlike hallucination, submission into pleasure. "la mas wapa del bar" is a cumbia that is an ode to perversity, a story of pleasure that a black widow delights in, the blood of a superficial love that feeds on suffering. All of this drawn out with a perfect pop melody; powerful, naïve.
