Angel Parra - "Ojo por Ojo"
Sounds from Australia
“Ojo por Ojo” by Ángel Parra is a masterful exploration of personal expression through the nylon-string guitar, showcasing an artist deeply in tune with his craft. Parra moves effortlessly between rhythmic, syncopated passages and delicate arpeggios, displaying a naturalness and poise that feel almost effortless.
His playing is dynamic yet restrained, shifting seamlessly from loud, assertive strums to soft, introspective whispers. This duality underscores the song’s lyrical philosophy: a declaration of principles encapsulated in the line, “I don’t need to shout my verses to you, nor guitar distortion".
The accompanying band elevates the track further, adding layers of depth without overshadowing Parra’s intimate performance. The electric guitar contributes subtle textures, weaving in and out of the arrangement with understated finesse. Meanwhile, the percussionist shines in their ability to handle dynamics with precision, enhancing the emotional ebb and flow of the song.
