Roots & Tings Drop New Single
Roots and Tings comments, “‘Election Time’ speaks to the complex feelings Americans have about the upcoming election. The phony political promises, the broken, intrinsically racist, sexist, classist and, in this time, a lying administration that is increasingly, dangerously authoritarian. The need to resist and fight includes- but is not limited to- voting. This song explores that, as well as the “why” behind it.”

TORRE x TORRE (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
“Torre x Torre is more then a biopic. The film takes us into a time tunnel of prestigious chess life starting more then a hundred years ago, but also explores the intriguing and border line mind of chess prodigy Carlos Torre outside the chess board. His philosophy, religious tendencies, his kindness. A genius mind bordering with madness and a life divided between the two strongest political systems, that probably is what cost him his brilliant career. ”
