It emerges from a shared interest in traditional instruments and experimental textures, exploring the meeting point between tradition and contemporary language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir music is built through a combination of acoustic and electronic elements, born out of improvisation. Rather than reproducing folklore, Salade treats it as a living material, recontextualizing it within their own unique language. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1        dada    6:45\u003cbr\u003e2        melón cólico    2:38\u003cbr\u003e3        odd cutlery    1:51\u003cbr\u003e4        h20    4:02\u003cbr\u003e5        konsome    4:04\u003cbr\u003e6        b.u.
