Influenced by Love of Lesbian, Sidonie, Los Planetas, The National. Damián Estela’s father, a luthier, used to have a guitar shop in Barcelona’s Gràcia district until a rent hike turned it into a frozen yogurt chain. Damián still writes his cinematic indie-pop songs on 'Noche', the last guitar his father ever built for him. By day, he works as a projectionist in an old cinema, a job that fuels his obsession with the small, heartbreaking stories unfolding in the city he both loves and resents. His songs are unsent letters to the woman he’s been with for nine years, charting the territory of a love that feels as beautiful and fragile as the city itself.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He medido el piso nuevo con la cinta de un cassette
de Los Planetas, el que odias por el ruido.
Ya sé dónde irá la Noche, lejos de la calefacción,
y en qué pared no colgaré ningún recuerdo contigo.
Es un solar en Poble Sec con vistas a un muro ciego,
un ensayo general para cuando llegue el frío.

[Pre-Chorus]
Trazo la nueva cartografía de mis domingos,
los bares donde no estarás, los atajos prohibidos.
Es una arquitectura hostil contra el anhelo.

[Chorus]
Construyo la memoria del derribo,
cada viga que quito es un verso que te escribo.
Estoy a salvo en la maqueta del olvido,
y es una rabia tan serena este castigo.

[Verse 2]
Huele a celuloide quemado este plan de contingencia
son las tres y diez, la última bobina que vigilo.
“Algún día te cansarás de mis ruinas”, dijiste riendo,
aquel agosto en la Plaça del Sol. No se me olvida el filo.
Y guardo tu mitad de los libros en cajas de fruta,
una frontera de cartón para dos exilios.

[Pre-Chorus]
Redibujo los límites de nuestro antiguo imperio,
las calles que ahora serán solo cementerios
de una conversación que se llevó el viento.

[Chorus]
Construyo la memoria del derribo,
cada viga que quito es un verso que te escribo.
Estoy a salvo en la maqueta del olvido,
y es una rabia tan serena este castigo.

[Bridge]
No es por ti, es por el vértigo de ver la cota cero,
la grieta estructural que avanza por el pasillo.
Es el pánico disfrazado de arquitecto.

[Outro]
El proyector se apaga. Y aún no ha sucedido.
