the whole biography
His two EPs, 2015’s Aequs Nyama (Salviatek) and 2018’s Testigo (NAAFI), garnered support from Pitchfork, The Guardian, Resident Advisor, FACT Magazine , Björk, Kode 9 and more. Since then, Zafiro has collaborated with Matmos and Linn da Quebrada, and has remixed for artists on SVBKVLT and TraTraTrax. He has extensively explored in the area of field recording and sound design, working for Splice, Mubert and artist Catarina Miranda to create sample packs and soundtracks based on his own recordings of objects, animals and natural soundscapes. Zafiro is a skillful DJ with a playful disregard for genre consistency. He’s made mixes for platforms like NTS, Mutek, i-D and Noisey, has toured as a DJ throughout Asia, Europe, South and North America and has played in festivals like Sonar, Unsound, Primavera Sound. Lechuga is currently hosting a radio show in NTS 1 focused on Latin American dance music and field recording experiments. His upcoming album Desde los oídos de un sapo (TraTraTrax) has already received positive reviews from specialized press. “It’s sorta the club music equivalent of poetry, a music that focuses on suggestion and detail, rather than overall narrative” Colin Joyce “Uruguay’s Lechuga Zafiro has become a relentless force for South American music in recent years. He has taken regional sounds of the continent to the global stage.” Tayyab Amin,The Guardian Text by Nina PosnerTheir RA profile lists Naafi and TraTraTrax.Recently at Paragon · often with upsammy, Gavsborg, livwutang, none of them here that night
