Experimental Indie Alter-native with hints of Spoken
Word, Trip Hop and Latin
rhythms - the unusual music
of Mexican-born compos-
er Jorge Hernandez invites
you to dance, while in the
next moment you sink into
multi-layered melodies and
voices. In-between elec-
tronic instruments such
as synths, electric guitar,
heavy base lines and partly
electronic beats, acoustic
instruments like accordi-
on and violin create a fun
and mesmerising genre
bending sound scape.
His lyrics borrow from litera-
ture and poetically jump not
only between impressions
of nature and human plea-
sure but also between lan-
guages: English, Spanish,
Portuguese and German.
For more than 10 years, the
musician and composer re-
leased under the project
GlowStone Leaf Orchestra.
13 albums later, it was time
for a new beginning: Since
2019, he has been com-
posing and performing as
Cenzontle - “mockingbird”
- under which 5 albums,
most recently “Erster Früh-
ling” (2022) and “Cenzontle”
(2023), were released. Jorge
lives in Berlin and performs
live with a three people band.
“ [...] a captivating fusion of traditional Latin American
Folk and electrifying Rock, delivered with a digital
twist.”
“[...] you’re sure to be stirred by the spiritually tran-
scendent experience which solidifies Cenzontle’s
position at the forefront of genre-bending music
exploration.”
