About this product

Hella Love, the Hardly Art debut from Marinero, is an album about closing a chapter. It's Jess Sylvester's grand farewell, and love letter to his hometown and the place he grew up, The San Francisco Bay Area, before relocating to Los Angeles after finishing his debut . Using the moniker Marinero (which means InchsailorInch in Spanish), Jess Sylvester was drawn to this name as a means to honor his parent's stories - his father, a sailor, and mother, a Mexican-American who grew up in San Francisco. This record blends many worlds from beginning to end, and as you go deeper it hits harder. It's his goodbye to The Bay. Pulling sonic influences from classic Latin American groups and international composers from the 60's & 70's Los Terricolas, Ennio Morricone, Esquivel, Carole King and, Serge Gainsbourg Hella Love finds Sylvester fusing classical arrangements with a variety of different genres, evoking a sonic nostalgia blended with other contemporary artists like Chicano Batman, Connan Mockasin, and Chris Cohen. The album was written, played, and produced by Jess Sylvester with help from Bay Area engineer Jason Kick (Mild High Club's Skiptracing) at Tunnel Vision and Santo Recording in Oakland, California. On the standout single InchNuestra Victoria,Inch Sylvester shares InchIt's my way of talking about gentrification in SF, or specifically the Mission where my mom and family grew up.

Marinero - La La La - Red   - VINYL LP

Red Vinyl. As Jess Sylvester finished his Hardly Art debut as Marinero in the fall of 2020, he realized it was time for a change. Sylvester grew up in Marin County, on the doorstep of San Francisco. It was a nurturing community for a high-school punk with a pompadour and, later, for a sober songwriter with a proclivity for moody psychedelia. But he wanted to be challenged and inspired by a new setting and new people who would prompt him to approach his music in unexpected ways. So, in September 2020, as the world continued to reel in lockdown, Sylvester headed to Los Angeles, a city that, despite the relative proximity, he knew more from classic and cult films set there. When he arrived, he dug deeper into that cinematic past Robert Altman's The Long Goodbye, or classic 90s movies about East LA, many featuring Edward James Olmos. They shaped his understanding of his new town as he began to experience it firsthand. This is one pillar of the multivalent and endlessly rich La La La, Marinero's new album about sobriety, identity, and fantasy that is playfully named both for the city that shaped it and the sophisticated pop it contains. On some tracks, Sylvester sings of characters outside himself a heroine reckoning with her version of keeping clean, screenwriters whose work was deemed communist simply as a political convenience. Others are motivational anthems about self-acceptance, and playful numbers about flirting through food. The sum of these parts is a 12-song set rich in humor, empathy, and encouragement. La La La is a continuation of the slippery genre play Sylvester started with 2021's Hella Love, 2019's Trópico de Cáncer, or even before that. But it also feels like a fresh beginning for Marinero, as Sylvester incorporates the music of his childhood, his familial roots in San Francisco and Mexico, and the salsa he absorbed as an impetuous teenager.
