LETTERING BY JOSU LARREA
MARICAS IN BERLIN II
MARICAS RECORDS 002
Sixty 9 / Triple D
PREORDER
Here we go again! The second release on MARICAS Records is hot and ready to handle, fresh off the kitchens of two of the maestros of the moment, Saoirse and Roza Terenzi.
If you were an animal, which one would
you be?
This is the question behind the graphics of the compilation, a campaign that visually connects us with the ladybug symbol of MARICAS Records. The idea is to represent the artists in a way that does not focus on their image, gender, background or class and presents them in the typical humorous, playful style of MARICAS. The answers the producers gave us have been interpreted into each of their fantasy animal counterparts, borrowed from popular imagery in a fanzine aesthetic.

MARICAS (2018 - PRESENT)
Maricas was born in January 2018 due to several discussions about the lack of a night-out in Barcelona that combined electronic music and the queer scene. If we look back on history, the techno rave community started with the help of the LGBTQ+ misfits of the 80s. Both communities have very similar values, freedom, youth and underground culture. Our home is Barcelona, but we aim to take Maricas all over the globe.
Maricas nació en enero de 2018 después de reflexionar sobre la falta de fiesta que combine musica electrónica y escena queer en Barcelona. Si miramos atrás en la historia, el grupo de techno rave comenzó con la ayuda de la comunidad LGBTQ+ de los 80. Las dos comunidades tienen valores muy similares, como la libertad, la joventud y la cultura underground. Nuestra casa es Barcelona, pero nuestro objetivo es llevar Maricas por todo el mundo.
