HELADO NEGRO is first and foremost the project of multi-instrumentalist ROBERTO CARLOS LANGE (co-producer of PREFUSE 73 alongside GUILLERMO SCOTT HERREN and member of SAVATH & SAVALAS, he has also collaborated with SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS, PAUL DUNCAN, etc.). Loops, synths, samples, and various instruments and influences populate the poetic songs – sung in Spanish – that make up Awe Owe (pronounced Ah! Oh?), an album blending folk, electro, and bossa nova. A diverse array of artists contributed to this debut effort: GUILLERMO S. HERREN (PREFUSE 73), JON PHILPOT (BEAR IN HEAVEN), NORI TANAKA (JIM O'ROURKE TRIO), MATT CRUM (FEATHERS), JASON AJEMIAN (CHICAGO UNDERGROUND TRIO), SHANNON FIELDS (STARS LIKE FLEAS), etc.
