Oscar’s antidepresivos is an ambitious, emotionally unfiltered album that examines existence, mortality, time, and the strange experience of growing older through the realities of life in your twenties and thirties. Hailing from Mérida, Mexico, the multi-instrumentalist and producer channels a deeply personal worldview into a collection that balances raw introspection with energetic, genre-crossing sounds.
Created entirely this year, the record began with a simple desire to write powerful, exciting tracks. As the songs developed, a broader conceptual thread emerged organically, transforming the project into a candid exploration of the human condition. Oscar handles nearly every aspect of the production, from songwriting and instrumentation to mixing and mastering, with select drum recordings captured at if6was9 studio.
One of the nine-track album’s defining strengths is its collision of physical instrumentation and experimental digital processing. Guitars, bass, violin, piano, and drums meet manipulated effects and samples, creating a sound that feels both grounded and otherworldly. Rather than chasing nostalgic tones, Oscar embraces contemporary production techniques to deliver a forceful sonic identity.
Uncomfortable truths and infectious musical energy coexist throughout antidepresivos, making this an engaging, uncompromising statement about life’s beauty, absurdity, and occasional heaviness.
