Los Thuthanaka

Pitchfork’s 2025 Album of the Year. Live at the OFF Festival in 2026. The joint effort by Chuquimamani-Condori and her brother Joshua Chuquimia Crampton – which also made it into the The Wire’s top three and earned a Silver Lion at the Venice Biennale Musica 2025 – has rightfully been described as being ahead of its time. The trance-inducing Los Thuthanaka takes you on a fascinating journey into the past and future. It combines the stories of the native inhabitants of the Andes – the siblings’ ancestors – with digital and club noise, which, in its live rendition, makes for an extraordinary and loud experience that you have to feel to believe. “It’s not supposed to be painful, but it’s supposed to change you, it’s supposed to make you feel healed in some way,” say the artists. Whether you’ve heard the self-titled album or not, their live combinations of psychedelic sounds, guitars, and Aymara beats are bound to be one of the best things you’ve experienced in your entire life. You’ll find out at the OFF Festival.
