Modern Love debut from Delia Beatriz aka Debit; a study of Mayan wind instruments from the late post classical period, rebuilt as synth instruments and deployed with ultimate heft and wooooze.

Modern Love will release The Long Count on February 18th, 2021.




Fusing ambient and electro-acoustic textures into beatless compositions, The Long Count was sourced from the sounds of pre-hispanic Mexican instruments that date back to the Mayan civilization. Using machine learning and inspiration from musique concrète, Beatriz created compositions based on whistles, ocarinas, flutes and other wind instruments from the archives of the Mayan Studies Institute at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.
