Lost Twin

Lost Twin is Carlos R. Pinto, builder of soundscapes using the codes of hip-hop, layers of mysticism and psychedelia. He started producing as Neo for some of Spain's most relevant rappers in the early 2000s but in 2010, after relocating to Brighton, he released his first EP as Lost Twin, which landed him gigs at events such as Sónar, Tramlines, and Lapsus.

On <a href="spotify:album:7DGObDkrcO9FRwBHRuBV5a" data-name="Saskatchewan Suite">Saskatchewan Suite</a> (2011) he continued exploring the area between psychedelia and hip-hop, hinting at what was to come on his first album Birds, which hit the streets in 2012.
