Originally from Tijuana, Mexico and based in Mexico City. Mint Field is one of these bands that make it shine. Guided by frontwoman and lead singer Estrella del Sol and Sebastian Neyra. Mint Field explores the nostalgia and the melancholy of daily life with strong guitars and voices that are like sighs that give life to a unique avant garde shoegaze. Intrumentation and atmospheres are accompanied by delicate, harmonious and ethereal voices that are fundamental part of the sound. With releases such as their debut album Pasar de las Luces (2018), Sentimiento Mundial (2020) and their most recent album Aprender a Ser (2023). Their sound has evolved over the course of these years of touring all over the world. In 2020 the band started fleshing out their newest album Aprender a Ser the follow-up to 2020’s minimalist psych/shoegaze album, Sentimiento Mundial. They wrote, recorded, produced, and mixed the album in isolation. They had time to slow things down and think more obsessively about the sound, environment, and vibe they wanted to create. Aprender a Ser became a really intimate album, every single detail was meticulously worked on. Fast forward to January 2023. During this period, the band recorded approximately twenty-five more songs and trimmed it down to ten, cohesive tracks that fit conceptually while at the same time trying to evolve their sound. During the recording process, they naturally came back to the roots of the Mint Field sound by doing a lot of layering, utilizing different types of reverb, and exploring more ethereal, ambient, dream pop, trip-hop, and shoegaze sounds.
