    The Artist Behind the Code

    WhyListerineh?

    Beyond code and algorithms lies a whole universe of sound, rhythm, and creative exploration. This is where the name was born.

    It didn't come from code.

    "Listerineh" is not a randomly generated username or a clever tech pun. It's a musical identity, one that grew from years of playing, recording, composing and feeling music before I ever wrote a single line of code professionally.

    Everything you see on this portfolio (the projects, the skills, the career) is built on top of a foundation that started with a guitar in my hands. The name stuck, and now it represents everything I do.

    Margarita Nugget

    Indie Funk / Pop

    Margarita Nugget is a fresh, strange, and incredibly alive indie funk/pop project. It doesn't follow a playbook: one song might be a dreamy indie pop ballad, the next hits you with distortion pedals and raw funk energy. Modern, unpredictable, and definitely not boring.

    We're in the most exciting early phase: composing, connecting, finding our sound together. We've already recorded a live session presenting our raw songs to the world, and after our first show we knew we had something real to build.

    Sofones Solares

    Experimental / Indie

    Two great friends, Andrés and Wlady, brought me into this experimental project where I played guitar, composed, and eventually produced our album. We approached music like engineers, methodical and precise, but let the musical instinct flow freely.

    The band is currently on pause (Andrés moved to Portugal, Wlady to Germany), but the album we made together is coming soon. Being in a band of programmer-musicians shaped how I think about creative collaboration.

    Album dropping soon

    A conceptual album exploring the cyclic stages of love. Each track uses a different genre and compositional approach to reflect a distinct emotional phase of love and heartbreak.

    Personal Project

    Listerineh

    Lo-Fi Hip-Hop · Electronic · Ambient

    The solo project where the name first appeared, and the one that started it all. Born from late-night bedroom sessions, Listerineh is a lo-fi and electronic music project built on layered guitars, sampled textures, and slow-burning ambient soundscapes. It's where the production gets most experimental: blending real instruments with digital synthesis, tape warmth with glitchy rhythms, and introspection with groove. Every track is a snapshot of a particular moment or feeling: unfiltered, unpolished on purpose, and deeply personal.
