The debut album Tiempos de Vencer by Spanish psych folk rock band Esperanto is out on YaiYai Records! Tiempos De Vencer presents a well-oiled band (members of Mohama Saz, Maika Makovski etc.) with a need to transmit a hopeful message with their grooves and arrangements from the East mixing with Chicago free jazz after visiting Berlin kraut rock through Canterbury. From the ashes of Melange rose Esperanto. In 2020, Melange ended their short but intense and successful career. The void that remained was filled by the creative process of three former members of the band; Dani Fernandez and the Ceballos brothers, Serio and Adrean. Esperanto emerged from stolen moments between Maika Makovski and Mohama Saz, the latter from which Javier Alonso was recruited. Tiempos de Vencer is an absolute must have and has arrived at the perfect moment. During these extraordinarily toxic times, the arrival of this record is a crucial injection of high caliber, unprecedented music. Music that transports you from Chicago Free-Jazz to Berlin's Kraut Rock stopping off in Canterbury along the way. Its essence is perceived in every beat, a feeling that comes from times past, from hard work, from the soul. These songs envelope and adorn you with eastern arrangements, they help you find victory, they propel you forward, and they are here to stay. Esperanto has just arrived but, did you not notice that it was already here? These musicians have joined together to create a record that embraces you with a compilation of songs that are more necessary than ever.

Repressed; USA tour forthcoming! The fifth album put out by Mohama Saz is a balance of primitive sound both organic and tribal with a flare of timeless psychedelic vanguard. Dystopian synths, chorus, percussion sustained by strong rhythms surround the sound of the electric Baglama Saz melodies. Máquina De Guerra is an instruction manual to escape the innocuous and the complacent and to keep fighting against the establishment. The record is oriented towards the south of Spain, as well as Eastern Europe, Anatolia, kaleidoscopic Kraut, Flamenco as well as music from the Andes and from North Africa. Máquina de Guerra forces the listener to fight against the international reactionary that wants to devour everything. Because each song contained in this record is its own world, and the new world is a Máquina de Guerra. The music of Mohama Saz is an enormous explosion of sound. For fans of Erkin Koray, Orkestra of Spheres, Triana, Sun Ra, Goat, Tinariwen, Las Grecas, or Neu. Máquina de Guerra has been produced by Carlos Díaz and Mohama Saz. It was recorded, mixed and mastered by Carlos Díaz at the El Cortijo de Santa María de la Vega (Granada, Spain). And with the original works of Oscar Rey Atellier on cover and back cover art, a Spanish painter based in Berlin. This album is published by YaiYai Records, limited to 300 copies.
