The Colombian group TELEBIT,
formed by Daniel Acosta on vocals, Felipe Rondón on guitar and Nicolás
Zaldúa on drums, have released their latest musical project titled “Caída Libre.” This is the fourth studio album by the Bogotanos and it contains 10 tracks, which were recorded in Bogotá and New York between 2020 and 2021.
From this album we’ve already heard “Mundos Invisibles” and “Duele si te vas,”
songs that occupied the top spots in the rankings on the most important
alternative rock radio station in their country, Radioacktiva. These
songs were released ahead of the album and have received important
editorial attention on the main streaming platforms.
This album includes songs such as “Estar Vivo,” in which Felipe Rondon
succeeds in depicting a moment that perhaps many people experienced in
2020—loneliness and uncertainty. TELEBIT accompanied the song with a
video filmed in Coney Island, New York that was released in August 2021.
The album “Caída Libre” is a recap of 2
difficult and complex years at a personal and spiritual level for
TELEBIT and is the depiction of the uncertainty of 2020. In these 10
songs that emerged from the gut, “songs
made from the soul, in the most complicated moments for humanity. An
album made at a distance in those strange and dark days of uncertainty,
of fear, of anger and full of all the human feelings possible. It’s an
album that united us more as a band and also moved us toward the
unknown, because there is no other choice and no better feeling than
going into ‘Free Fall’.” (Telebit)
