Sonamos and Little Butterfly Records presents: EXHALO. Halo's last breath.

Released in May 2017, Halo is to date the latest LP of new music released by Juana Molina.

Recorded between her studio in the town of Pacheco (in the suburbs of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina) and Sonic Ranch in Texas (United States), Halo represented a step forward towards the sonic-experimental abyss that characterizes the work of the unclassifiable Argentine artist. In addition, in songs such as “Paraguaya” —which opens the album—, “Cosoco” or “Estalacticas” Juana's repertoire has since found three central moments for her live music.

Today, more than seven years after its release, record labels SONAMOS (founded by Juana Molina and her manager/producer Mario Agustín de Jesús González) and LITTLE BUTTERFLY RECORDS (Uruguay) give you the release of EXHALO, a 4-track EP recorded during the Halo sessions.

Four grooves that escape the category of outtakes and that, of course, pursue the aesthetic that seemed to obsess Juana in 2017: minimal gestures, sophisticated rhythms and textures, unexpected melodies and a harmonic world unusual for the pop universe. Here are four compositions and four performances that could easily have been included in “the official Halo” and that, due to the strange (or indecipherable) mental processes of the artists, were relegated from the final cut.

Now, with the appearance of EXHALO, the Halo film seems complete and definitive. The ideal artifact to wait for the new music from Juana —“that strange and beautiful creature,” according to the definition of the NRP, the public radio of the United States— that was announced for 2025.
