"Mabe Fratti (born 1992) is a Guatemalan cellist and vocalist. Fratti works in a wide variety of genres. Her work includes collaborations with artists such as Belafonte Sensacional, and she is part of avant-garde music collective Amor Muere.

Born in Guatemala, and raised in a Pentecostalist family, Fratti was classically trained in cello and limited to listening to either Christian or classical music by her parents until she discovered file sharing through LimeWire. Also more avant-garde elements were introduced to her like a György Ligeti record "randomly" brought home by her father, and a DVD by cellist Jacqueline du Pré she found in a record store. She began creating her own music as a teenager, and upon leaving the church expanded into playing styles as varied as reggae, blues, and funk, with the cello she uses now being a gift from her school.

In 2015, a Goethe Institute residency took her to Mexico to work on her music. Through this residency and move she performed with more musicians such as established artists Libertad Figueroa [es], Gudrun Gut and Julian Bonequi, and got involved in the Mexico City improvisational music scene. She met future members of Amore Muere and her partner Héctor Tosta, then of La Vida Bohème.

In 2019, Fratti produced her first album, Pies Sobre La Tierra, citing W.G Sebald's The Rings of Saturn as inspiration. This was followed up by Será Que Ahora Podremos Entendernos in 2021, collaborating for album with composer Claire Rousay and the experimental band Tajak, and the album being described as "referending Arthur Russell". Fratti's subsequent 2022 album Se Ve Desde Aquí has been referred to as "mind blowing" by fellow experimental artist Oneohtrix Point Never.

She went on to collaborate with partner Hector Tosta as Titanic in 2023, producing Vidrio, an album described as "somewhere between jazz and chamber pop".

In 2023, Amor Muere released A Time to Love, a Time to Die. Fratti had formed this musical collective with artists Concepción Huerta, Gibrana Cervantes and Camille Mandoki, creating works over a period of years. Due to each member's existing work it has been described as an "experimental supergroup"."

"Alina Maldonado b. 1989, Tabasco, Mexico.

Lives and works in Mexico City.

Alina Maldonado is a transdisciplinary artist working with sound, video, performance and installation whose main interest is to propose experiments with sound that are not restrained solely to the auditory field, but encompass the somatic, the visual and technological. Maldonado creates situations where perceptions of quotidian objects, gestures or sounds are interrupted to create a ground to trigger critical reflections on memory, gender and desire.

The artist approaches sound in a sculptural way, allowing her to build emotional and psychological spaces through her violin playing, pedals, field recordings and synthesizers. Her compositional approach sheds light on the established boundaries between noise and music.

She has performed and presented work internationally at CTM MusicMakers Hacklab Berlin (2019), Acción + Aislamiento de Teatro UNAM (2020), Experimental Sound Studio Chicago (2021), Bosque Sonoro at Modern Art Museum (2021), Casa del Lago UNAM (2021), Infrasónica (2022), Soundde Oaxaca (2023), Future Fluids Berlin (2023), Centro Multimedia CENART (2023), Ex-Teresa Arte Actual (2024), among others.

Maldonado is the recipient of the Jóvenes Creadores grant by the Mexican National Endowment for Culture and Arts (2022); the Fundación Jumex's scholarship program (2022); Best Original Music award in Mexico's National Dance Contest Guillermo Arriaga (2019) and earned a Master's degree from The Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College."
