Helado Negro, the project of Roberto Carlos Lange, presents The Last Sound On Earth, a five-track EP released via Big Dada, part of Ninja Tune. Raised in South Florida and now based in North Carolina, Lange has built a reputation for electronic music that balances delicacy and depth, informed by his Ecuadorian-American heritage.
The EP poses a stark question: what might the last sound we hear be? Across its songs, Helado Negro blends spectral production with quietly affecting lyrics that confront grief, loneliness, and disillusionment. Yet within this melancholy lies a search for hope. Hypnotic rhythms and understated melodies invite listeners to move with the sadness rather than be consumed by it, presenting music as both resistance and release. For admirers of Beach House, Toro y Moi, Japanese Breakfast, Cuco, and Mount Kimbie, The Last Sound On Earth offers a poignant reflection on endings and resilience.
