Laboca takes a retrospective assessment, captures snapshots of the current moment and turns to the implications of being old timers after facing in front of the mirror more than twenty years in the world of rap. Playing with the metaphor of time travel, they ask questions about how to use nostalgia to dialogue with what is out there and imagine a better future for anyone. This trip is wrapped on one hand by samples of the analog synthesizers and synth drums of Spanish artists in their late stages (early and mid-80s). And on the other hand, by voices from movies and television series from the era (such as "Las Verdes Praderas" by José Luis Garci or "Into The Labyrinth", by Peter Graham Scott and Bob Baker). The album cover design is work of Gabriel Saiz/Filo Estudio, who makes an art intervention on the covers of the sampled artists.
