This is a 2025 Limited Edition released as a LP.
Step into the vibrant, genre-defying world of BALTHVS with MACROCOSM, their electrifying debut album released on September 5, 2020. Crafted entirely by Balthazar Aguirre—with ethereal vocals by Johanna Mercuriana—this 10-track journey blends psychedelic funk, neo-psychedelic grooves, and a kaleidoscope of rhythms, languages, and styles into a cohesive yet boundary-pushing sonic experience.
Recorded between January and June 2020 across a farm in Simijaca and Cubensis Records Studios in Colombia, MACROCOSM captures the band’s fresh, independent spirit, released under their own label. From the haunting melancholy of "Les Cœurs en Peine (Almas Que Se Van)" to the hypnotic pulse of "Hooked (Hazy Nights)" and the irresistible sway of "Colombian Girl," each track is a vivid brushstroke in a larger, immersive canvas.
With a runtime of just 38 minutes, the album wastes no time in delivering infectious energy, thought-provoking melodies, and a sense of wanderlust—all while staying rooted in the band’s Colombian psychedelic funk roots. Whether you're drawn in by the dreamy "Johanna’s Dream" or the uplifting "Free Yourself (You Know Where You Belong)," MACROCOSM invites listeners to lose themselves in its rich textures and dynamic compositions.
A bold statement of artistic vision, MACROCOSM is more than just music—it’s a testament to Balthvs’ fearless creativity and their ability to merge cultures, genres, and emotions into something entirely new.
