In 2019, Helado Negro mesmerized audiences with "Thus Is How You Smile," a groundbreaking evolution of his signature mellow and psychedelic sound, honed over a decade. He had long lingered in the comfortable embrace of chillwave and synthpop indietronica, only breaking free with this aforementioned record, leaving many curious about his next move. "Far In," his subsequent release, delved deeper into ethereal realms, incorporating more ambient elements than ever before. Yet, despite its initial allure, the album seemed to lack depth upon closer inspection. However, with his latest offering, "Phasor," Helado Negro not only builds upon the groundwork laid in "Far In" but also refines it. While still delivering the soothing warmth characteristic of his previous works, "Phasor" stands out for its diverse array of ideas, seamlessly woven together to create a truly captivating listening experience.
