Helado Negro, the musical project of Roberto Carlos Lange, blends ambient pop with his Ecuadorian heritage and Miami's diverse sounds. Born in South Florida, Lange collaborated with Prefuse 73 and Savath & Savalas, debuting as Helado Negro with 2009's "Awe Owe." Known for introspective works on Latinx identity, his 2016 album "Private Energy" featured hits like "Young, Latin and Proud." The emotive 2019 album "This Is How You Smile" explored immigrant family themes. He has worked with artists like Laetitia Sadier, Jen Wasner, and Xenia Rubinos, and his albums reflect a rich cultural tapestry.
