Artist Spotlight: Xiupill (REPLAY)
Episode 42
Tuesday, 6 August, 2024
Send us a textComing back from our last holiday of the summer (verslunarmannahelgin) and slowly coming back to life / back to reality, we bring you another replay of one of our classics. This time we bring you a re-listen of our artist spotlight with genre-bending and self-described “boy band” Xiupill.With members hailing from Iceland, Spain and the US, the three-piece create a blend of production, performance and artistry that looks firmly to the future of music production while embracing diverse elements of the past. Two thirds of the band — Juan M. Melero and Jón Múli, missing Oliver Devaney — joined us in our studio at GV HQ to talk about their sophomore album MYTHOLOGY (released on March 28), as well as touring, pop essentialism, and the importance of caffeine in production.Listen to MYTHOLOGY on SpotifyBuy the album on BandcampXiupill on Instagram: @xiu_pill66 Degrees of Sound is a podcast production by The Reykjavík Grapevine, hosted by music editor Jóhannes Bjarkason and listings editor Rex Beckett.Editing and intro music by Rex Beckett.All tracks played on the show are in accordance with STEF, the Composers’ Rights Society of Iceland.Check out grapevine.is for the full magazine coverage and events.grapevine.is for more upcoming events.
