Helado Negro, the creative moniker of Roberto Carlos Lange, is the latest addition to the 4AD roster. Raised in South Florida and now based in Brooklyn, NY, Roberto has spent much of this year’s quarantine in Marfa, Texas. He had already been scheduled to be working on a multimedia project at Ballroom Marfa. “Kite Symphony” is the result, it is a new collaboration with the visual artist Kristi Sword. The artists created a non-linear and impressionistic style film and live score, as well as a sculptural work that explores the landscape of West Texas through wind, sound, and light. The ‘Kite Symphony’ EP was released this past summer.
