53 AÑOS PARA LLEGAR AL MUNDO:
LOS MIRLOS LANZAN THE WORLD MEETS LOS MIRLOS
EL PRIMER ÁLBUM EN SU HISTORIA CONCEBIDO COMO COLABORACIÓN TOTAL
Incluyendo: “De Jueves a Jueves” feat. JUANES — con Video Oficial
También con Bomba Estéreo · 311 · Guaynaa · Monsieur Periné · Los Bunkers · Los Bitchos · LA LOM · La Coreañera · Chicha Libre · Funky Munchies · Mireya Ramos · Big Sempa · Toy Selectah . El Dusty. Fux Beat, 
Un lanzamiento de Revancha Records y BMG

 

Lima / Los Ángeles / Nueva York — El 15 de mayo de 2026, Los Mirlos — los arquitectos peruanos de la cumbia amazónica, fundadores de una tradición psicodélica que el mundo tardó décadas en alcanzar — lanzan THE WORLD MEETS LOS MIRLOS, el primer álbum en sus 53 años de historia concebido como una colaboración a gran escala. Publicado conjuntamente por Revancha Records y BMG, el álbum no llega como una reinvención, sino como un ajuste de cuentas: una declaración de que el mundo ya no tiene excusas. Los Mirlos son leyendas. El momento de saberlo es ahora.
“Puede que la gente no hable nuestro idioma, pero se deja llevar por las guitarras, las melodías, los ritmos psicodélicos.”

— Jorge Luis Rodríguez Pérez, Director Musical, Los Mirlos
THE WORLD MEETS LOS MIRLOS reúne doce canciones, cada una una colaboración completa entre Los Mirlos y un artista que los buscó a ellos — y no al revés. La lista completa: “Las Noches” ft. Chicha Libre; “De Jueves a Jueves” ft. Juanes (canción principal); “Prieta de Mi Vida” ft. Guaynaa; “La Fuga del Jaguar” ft. Los Bitchos; “La Pena” ft. La Coreañera & Funky Munchies; “Amber” ft. 311 (producida por El Dusty); “Eres Mentiroso” ft. Bomba Estéreo; “Bonita” ft. Big Sempa & Toy Selectah; “Llanto en la Selva” ft. LA LOM; “Cumbia Pa’ Olvidar” ft. Mireya Ramos; “Cariñito” ft. Monsieur Periné; y “La Luna” ft. Los Bunkers. Cada colaborador llegó desde un lugar de profunda admiración, trayendo su propio universo sonoro al diálogo con las guitarras de fuzz y las melodías pentatónicas amazónicas que Jorge Rodríguez Grández forjó en Lima en 1973.

Desde El 2022 comencé a volver a mi país más seguido …
Mi padre falleció y pues mi madre estaba sola me tocaba como hijo estar presente… y vigilar su salud …
Desde ese año mis amistades han crecido que se que tengo un grupito de amigos muy buenos en Perú…
El 2024 comencé a trabajar con Revancha Récords Y me asocié para armar el proyecto “The World Meets Los Mirlos”…
Trabajando con la banda de Cumbia Amazónica de Moyobamba trayendo artistas invitados y oportunidades internacionales de trabajo …
Por una razón ahora estoy aquí …la razón es dar el conocimiento musical y experiencia de negocio a mi comunidad en Perú…
Ayer tuve el honor de ser parte de @kumbieraproject  donde @rousdelarous convoco e invito a @killary.oficial  @rositaproducciones y @afonico y ser parte de este panel  durante FIL en Lima.
@filibro.lima … realmente para mi es muy lindo poder inspirar educar a futuros artistas músicos de que se puede llegar soñando grande siendo profesional y preparado musicalmente… Yo he tenido la chance de salir de Peru a muy temprana edad y he logrado cosas de sueños y todavía tengo sueños que realizar …
Estas charlas o conversaciones sirven para tener un poco más de conocimiento guiar caminos con luz …
Nuestro país tiene mucha arte y muchos sonidos que podemos exportar al resto del mundo…
Gracias Rous !!!

LANGUAGE OF LOVE by Pandabat Featuring  Ati Lane ——-available everywhere 
August 7th 2026…

VERSE 1
I had to give you my love
It was never enough
You always wanted more
Should’ve known, should’ve known
When you walked through the door
You craved attention 
Left me wanting more of your affection


CHORUS
I know, I know, you know
He said, she said, they said so
Everybody’s guilty 
In the language of love
I know, I know, you know 
you know know 
everybody knows
Everybody’s guilty
In the language of love
VERSE 2
questioned loyalty
thought I had  liberty
Someone who truly, just 
Bit the apple from the tree
Now that I’m alone
I keep having these dreams
Where I don’t feel guilty
For loving you and me

CHORUS
I know, I know, I know you know
He said, she said, they said so
Everybody’s guilty
In the language of love
I know, I know, I know you know
Nobody really knows
Everybody’s guilty
In the language of love …. by @afonico

@pandabatmusic “Language of Love” 
coming this August 2026….
…Miami-based post-punk project Pandabat returns with its newest single, “Language of Love,” a shimmering yet melancholic exploration of how two people can care deeply for one another while speaking entirely different emotional languages.

Built upon pulsing synthesizers, driving basslines, atmospheric guitars, and a sense of longing that recalls the emotional architecture of New Order, Alphaville, and the songwriting sensibilities of Vince Clarke, “Language of Love” inhabits the space between devotion and misunderstanding. It is a song about the invisible codes we inherit, the examples we witness growing up, and the ways those experiences shape our expectations of intimacy.  At its core, the song asks a simple but unsettling question:

What happens when two people love each other, but understand love differently?

For Pandabat founder and songwriter Marthin Chan, the inspiration came from reflecting on the contrasting ways people learn affection, trust, commitment, and vulnerability.

“All humans have a way of interpreting love. I never had to explain the way I love because it was the love that surrounded me. I watched my father adore my mother. I watched my closest friends build lasting partnerships. To me, love was always about two individuals creating something larger than themselves. But not everyone grows up with the same examples. Sometimes people inherit abandonment, betrayal, fear, or uncertainty and carry those experiences into future relationships.”

Rather than assigning blame, “Language of Love” examines the painful reality that emotional disconnection often emerges not from malice, but from incompatibility in communication. The song explores culpability, self-reflection, projection, and the uncomfortable realization that love can exist even when understanding does not.Wrapped in icy synth textures and cinematic production, the track channels the romantic darkness of classic post-punk while remaining deeply contemporary.—a soundtrack for late-night introspection and unanswered questions.  Ati Lane recorded the lead vocals …🛸🐼🦇🔥 coming this august 2026 by @afonico

I met Maahez aka Mauro Menendez in 2011-2012
He started coming to Afonico at the unicorn regularly…
He would work in producing Moombathon and Afrobeat we connected as friends and as artist and mentor.
I loved my friend we connected spiritually and the hours of conversations about aliens and the occult were up our alley…
I will miss you my friend …
Using the force and magic is something you and I know we have …
I made the studio a place for dreams to flow …
A safe space to create …
My brother you were a big part of Afonico in the beginning always helping out… so when ever i could  make something happen for you you I know I would  do anything to connect the dots…
Connected many things for you …
The USB drive to Diplo one of my favorite OBE Won moments … sneaking in to Ultra …
My bro you went on the spaceship before me …. Te Quiero mi bro🕊️🙏🫶🛸🛸🛸 by @afonico

Buenas Prácticas Interculturales viii …  Thank You  @milenawarthon for inviting me … I attended with my mother I didn’t want  to stay at home in bed though my pain and vertigo are strong and present It was a beautiful night of honoring Peruvian culture… Milena rocked the stage with her two dancers and musical director.
It’s the first time I see her live total pop star… With an Andean sound blending it with high energy  pop…  What a hey night of  cultural activism… the night ended with Susana Baca performing whom I had never seen live also… Wow what an amazing live performance from the legendary Peruvian artist.
Peru es clave!!! 🇵🇪🙏🫶 by @afonico
