Visual Kei Rarities and Oddities
Mexico City, 30.12.24
As a geeky teenager, I was obsessed with the Japanese Visual Kei movement, known for its flamboyance, androgynous style, and campy, kitschy attitude. Though often tied to rock and metal, Visual Kei embraces diverse musical genres. I spent countless nights immersed in its obscure and experimental corners, exploring hidden subgenres and unconventional artists. This period marked the beginning of my passion for seeking sounds beyond the mainstream, opening doors to a variety of genres and artists far beyond Visual Kei. I dedicate this collection to those formative years, when my love for offbeat music first took root and shaped who I am today.
