Alan Palomo, the auteur musician and producer behind the long-running avant pop project Neon Indian, has shared “Nudista Mundial ’89,” which is his first release under his own name.
Palomo brought the song to life at Mac Demarco‘s studio upon learning that Demarco had some key pieces of gear that would help manifest the funky electro-pop tune.
In the press release Palomo further explains he created the music for his latest tune.
“While working on a few tunes, I was trying to get a hold of this certain piano. My keyboard player told me Mac had one at his studio so I hit him up. And on one breezy day in May, we sang a duet about two guys going to a nude beach together in Ibiza.”
The song’s narrative is brought to life in the accompanying video which Palomo wrote and directed. Animated by Johnny Woods in the style of the 80’s adult computer game Leisure Suit Larry.
In the video Palomo and Demarco arrived in Ibiza and engage in a quest to locate a nude beach party, with no shortage of distractions along the way, including a mushroom cloud comedian bombing at a nightclub and a drug lord’s blood-hungry panther staked out in the duo’s hotel room.”Nudista Mundial ’89” is Palomo‘s first release since 2019’s “Toyota Man” and marks the start of a new era that will unfold in the coming months.
