Carlos Garcia Teruel

Mexican multi-instrumentalist, lyricist, sound artist and electronic musician based in Mexico City.

Founding member of several Mexican new wave, synth-pop, experimental and electronic groups, starting in 1977 with Glissando, inspired by [a=Decibel (2)] after meeting [a=Walter Schmidt (3)] and Carlos Robledo, and allegedly buying some used synthesizers and sequencers from Capitán Pijama and [a=Size (4)], followed by Old Fashioned (1982) and Volti —the three projects along with his partner Arturo Meade plus other musicians. After the dissolution of Volti's original line-up he started his most notorious project, Silueta Palida, composing and performing by his own until Jaime Herranz joined with electronic and acoustic percussion. Silueta Pálida got a favorable reception and notoriety, even performing in festivals with Las insólitas imágenes de aurora and Bon Y Los Enemigos Del Silencio. Today is considered a cult band.

He collaborated since 1985 with Decada 2 (first called 'Década Hoy') until 2018 along with Mateo Lafontaine, and with Noiselab Records' project Of. He also composes and performs as a solo artist.
