Los Angeles-based math rock duo, standards, gets fans ready for a five-year tour with the release of a new vinyl that features all their EPs in one vinyl. Standards performs at Comet Ping Pong on July 13, 2023.
Led by Marco Mena on guitar and Moises Popa on drums, standards has been releasing complex instrumentations since their debut in 2018 with their self-titled EP. The five-year tour will be supported by the bands Invalids and Via Luna. Along with the new vinyl, the duo is releasing tab books for all their EPs. The vinyl will include EPs “Standards”, “Friends”, and “Yum !!”
“Our EPs are some of the most popular and oldest releases so I’m happy to put all of them into one vinyl and one tab book,” said Marcos Mena of standards. “I’m also excited to play our first EP in full on our upcoming July tour, it’ll be fun to play both old and new material for our fans across the country.”
Check out standards’ music available now on major streaming platforms like YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud. You can get tickets to standards’ tour, which includes a stop at Comet Ping Pong on July 13, here. Don’t forget to grab the vinyl here.

Flow-bending artist aSanTIS discusses art, culture, and whether sound can solve the world’s problems in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.
My interview with Amy Santis aka aSanTIS began in the most unexpected way. The Maryland-based flow-bending artist and lyrical storyteller came prepared to engage in conversation around questions I had posed – and she also brought one or two of her own thoughtful prompts based on her curiosities around my view of learning.
This practice of taking in her surroundings deeply through observation and inquiry has come naturally to aSanTIS ever since she was a young child. In terms of her early starts in music, she notes that she began as a discerning listener. “Just listening to music from my mom, on the radio, just being a consumer in the world of sound. But I think mainly, my mom has always loved dancing and listening to music, so that was sort of like second nature. We play music at gatherings, we play music in the car, and these songs are sort of like diaries that take us into a specific place.”
