Biography:

As hard as it is to differentiate your sound among the vast music cloud that populates the internet these days. Some artists have managed to stay true to their vision and keep struggling during the hardships and perils of making music these days. That's the case of Celestina Robot whose latest efforts have placed them as a premiere band among the electronic music crowd. Celestina, as the fans called it have made a strong impression via their live shows which currently incorporate 3d visuals, a move very in tune with today's entertainment technology. Celestina's music has a strong electronic core which gets topped with a rock and roll attitude and heavy guitars riffs. As Wilfre Carrasquillo, guitarist and band founder tells us "The way we work is different from other bands in the island. Others may start as a rock band and then add the electronic elements as if it was frosting to a cake. With us is different Celestina Robot is electro and rock".

In December 2006 Dj Lady Liquid (Vocals), producer and Berklee College of Music Alumni Wilfre Carrasquillo (Guit. & Keys) and Keyboardist Melvin Medina started working together cobining masterfully Electro and Rock genres. They use robot like computer program sounds as the composition base, combining it with live guitar for a more edgy sound. These youngsters found a contemporary electronic sound with a “retro” touch that reminds us british bands like The Cure and Duran Duran in their beginnings.

“ Utilizando como base los arreglos computadorizados, pero dándoles “vida” con guitarra y teclado, los jóvenes encontraron un sonido electrónico contemporáneo con un toque “retro” que recuerda el oscuro rock británico de bandas como The Cure y Duran Duran en sus inicios. ”
