about

Born and raised in Argentina, Morita Vargas is an experimental artist and producer based in Buenos Aires. She manipulates her voice through reverbs, delays and whispers, singing in a self-invented 'language'. The sound of Morita’s voice is a portal into her thriving, dreamlike world brimming, shimmering and beating with unrefined natural sensations which stimulate something primordial yet strangely contemporary.
As far back as 2014 she began work on her first productions - early sketches which later became the basis for ‘8’. It all started off as voice memos on her phone (recorded while roaming the streets and riding the trains of Greater Buenos Aires). Later on, Morita introduced various instruments into her vision: kalimba, harmonica, keyboard, flute, tambourine, chajchas, and cajón. Composed and performed from that period until its original release in 2018, ’8’ features 10 original voice-led compositions that in scope recall evocative portraits of synthesized landscapes and rainforests, attuned to a vibrant modern pulse and enchanting vocals. Morita Vargas “8” has achieved a kind of polyphonic soundscape which evokes unfamiliar realities through voyages within and between the realms of ambient and experimental music.
In numerology the number 8 symbolizes the transition between heaven and earth, the illumination of our infinite capacity for various metamorphoses. Tackling ideas of transformation, mutation, cyclical processes, death, creation, melancholy, and joy, the album you are holding is a monumental and deeply personal statement. You are invited to walk barefoot down the mystical path and indulge in the process of spiritual expulsion and renewal that is ‘8’. The path lies along the route of infinite meanings, somewhere on the border between dream and reality.


Nacida y criada en Argentina, Morita Vargas es una artista experimental y productora radicada en Buenos Aires. Morita manipula su voz a partir de reverbs, delays y susurros, cantando en un lenguaje inventado por ella misma. Su sonido es un portal hacia un mundo onìrico, brillante y palpitante, con sensaciones naturales sin refinar que estimulan algo primordial, pero extrañamente contemporáneo.
Ya en 2014 comenzó a trabajar en sus primeras producciones, primeros bocetos que luego se convirtieron en la base de '8'. Todo comenzó como notas de voz en su teléfono (grabado mientras deambulaba por las calles y viajaba en los trenes de Buenos Aires). Más tarde, Morita introdujo varios instrumentos en su visión: kalimba, armónica, teclado, flauta, pandereta, chajchas y cajón. Compuesto e interpretado desde ese período hasta su lanzamiento original en 2018, '8' presenta 10 composiciones originales dirigidas por su voz que en su alcance dibujan retratos evocadores de paisajes sintetizados y selvas tropicales, sintonizados con un pulso moderno vibrante y voces encantadoras. Morita Vargas "8" ha logrado una especie de paisaje sonoro polifónico que evoca realidades desconocidas a través de viajes dentro y entre los reinos de la música ambiental y experimental.
En numerología, el número 8 simboliza la transición entre el cielo y la tierra, la iluminación de nuestra capacidad infinita para varias metamorfosis. Al abordar ideas de transformación, mutación, procesos cíclicos, muerte, creación, melancolía y alegría, el álbum que sostienes es una declaración monumental y profundamente personal. Estás invitado a caminar descalzo por un camino místico y disfrutar del proceso de expulsión y renovación espiritual que es '8'. El camino se encuentra a lo largo de la ruta de significados infinitos, en algún lugar en la frontera entre el sueño y la realidad.
