@alternativenation Hello! My name is Juan Pablo Espinosa. I'm an indie musician from Chile 🇨🇱 . Bands like New Order, Depeche Mode, The Smiths and U2 are part of my influences. You can listen my music on Spotify 👇
@alternativenation a friend of mine introduced me to #Portishead when they were still active, and it was very different to music either of us usually listened to at that time. I still really like them. https://youtu.be/8T0cRt8efsQ
I still associate the song Wandering Star with the science fiction show Babylon 5 😄
My mind just made a connection there somehow and now I'm stuck with it.
@alternativenation
Do you remember the first album you bought with your own money?
For me it was Even in the Quietest Moment by #Supertramp
I had asked my older sister for advice, and while we didn't really have the same taste in music I wasn't disappointed.
Edit: Uhm, not sure Supertramp counts as alternative though...
Mine was Pisces Iscariot by Smashing Pumpkins. I’m not sure why I chose that particular album as it’s a collection of demos and b-sides. I think I knew I was interested in the Smashing Pumpkins, but wasn’t sure where to start, haha.
