about

Argentinian power pop musician Juan Pablo Mazzola had no intention to actually release the mostly acoustic tracks that make up Castell de Pop, the new album by his Baby Scream project, but lo and behold: the folks at Spanish niche label Exile Records convinced him to let them put it out on vinyl.

After trying to break out as an artist for many years on end, he was ready to pack it in. Critical acclaim did not translate to bigger sales. But still he continued to write and record, because being creative is an itch that needs to be scratched. Since the material was never intended to be heard by anyone except a close circle of friends, the songs sound relaxed and spontaneous. He did not polish things up much, but let his fingers do the talking. It is a collection of intimate songs by a man whose knack for conjuring power pop melodies with a hint of glam is in full force, even at a more subdued level. This release has made him write some more, so fingers crossed that those songs will see the light of day as well in the near future. - Here Comes The Flood (The Netherlands)

Juan Pablo Mazzola, also known as Baby Scream, crafted a collection of exquisitely melodic, nearly acoustic tracks that are both cutting and delicate, creating an intimate listening experience. These songs drew inspiration from musical and lyrical influences such as Alex Chilton, Chris Bell, John Lennon, and Radiohead. Initially penned for his personal expression, the Spanish record label Exile Records was profoundly captivated when they had the privilege of hearing them. Their immediate desire to release “Castell de Pop” was fueled by this fervent enthusiasm, which is not hard to comprehend. The album possesses that rare quality which envelops you entirely—a musical journey capable of consuming your attention. It’s the type of album you might find yourself playing consecutively eight times on a Sunday morning, only to then retreat back to the comfort of your bed. Once these melodies have been absorbed, the day simply refuses to unfold in any other way. - Sweet Sweet Music Blog (The Netherlands)
