Fantasmes are excited to announce the release of their debut
LP 'Redness Moon' out today with Last Bummer Records. This
hypnotic psych-rock duo are comprised of Mario Negrón and Darío
Morales - two close friends who began playing music together in high
school, brought together by their love for 1960's psychedelia and avant-garde
pop. Fantasmes hails from the breezy beaches of Puerto Rico, and you can
hear the ocean's influence on 'Redness Moon.' The record is spellbinding
and soothing, with rhythmic rises and falls and heady acoustic riffs echoing
the sonic flow of the tide.

a free digital download).
In celebration of today's release, Fantasmes have released
the official music video for their second single "Dance in the
Shadows" (click the still below to watch). The video is a
beautiful sepia-toned dreamscape that pairs perfectly with the song's chilled
out, acoustic trance.
"What’s most interesting about Puerto Rico/NYC based
band Fantasmes' latest album “Redness Moon” is not necessarily the obvious, but
rather what is happening “underneath.” “Cloud Prepositions” emerges through a
slow, purposeful, rising groove. Droning background pulses underscore prominent
tambourine percussion, tubular-belled guitars and eno-esque treated keyboards.
The vocals are muted and obscure, creating mood over storytelling"
Deli Magazine
"Complex and spellbinding in its lush movement of
rippling rises and falls that envelops the listener in a transcendental sonic
journey."
Anthem Magazine
"creeping and hypnotic"

Bullett Magazine
"The Puerto Rican psych team does all their ‘60s predecessors proud on “Redness Moon,” a swampy, reverb-heavy ride into dusk, billowing with lazy riffs, desert drums and hypnotic festival vox."

"Slow drum beats and guitar riffs with whirling
vocals that are reminiscent of The Shins or The Beatles."
