Los Retros : Introducing Retrospect 

This is a kid whos following his dreams through some obstacles but that hasn't stopped him and he's going to places:) makes me happy

literally just discovered this band and fuck dude i’ve never related to anyone more in my life and he’s going places so it’s nice to see another hispanic making it out there.

One day everyone is gonna be listening to Los Retros 🔥

this is so fucking adorable i feel like a proud mom seeing a brown boy succeeding.. i'm wishing them the best

For y'all who thought his voice was fake here y'all goooooooo

This man is already a legend in my books. Just stay humble bro

Nothing realer than recording in your bedroom on the 4 track. You cant fake authenticity! Glad Stones Throw found you

There's so many people from around the world pretending to be from Southern California it's refreshing to see and hear it in a true authentic form from a young artist.

I went to high school with this dude. Dude’s a great guy and was on top of everything. Seen him play at school and always seem focused on his goal. Glad to see him excel in his craft.

"my mom would start mopping" hahaha

Whenever i see another latino making it in life, i always support. We need more of him

Love this, it's soo pure you get to know more about the artist & their life, love that

I love the innocent vibes just a humble boy chasing his dreams 💗 and inspiring others

He does so much for family and himself and Ik he will go big ❤️

this guy is gonna go far i just found his songs on spotify autoplay you've got a knack for this man keep going you've got a bright future

I love him and the interview so much, so much you can't tell from an outsiders perspective

Such a genuine guy hope he makes it far love the music and his persona such an old soul 🔥👍

He has music running through his veins! Hopefully he’ll make it big or at least enough to have a studio just to create music 🎶

I started listening to Mauri and Los Retros a year ago, i cried to his songs, i worked hard to the funky beats his music had, and i fell in love while dedicating songs he made to a girl. He absolutely changed my life and has been so humble throughout everything, i went to his concert for my birthday and he spent quite some time talking to me like if i was an old friend. He and his discography will always be cherished by me and many others

pure talent. super excited what Los Retros pursues in the future!

This is amazing no big production just him at home with friends and family. Just making music that's AMAZING. I LOVE THIS.

Introduciendo Retrospección Hola! Trate de traducir lo mejor que pude esta entrevista. No se Español muy bien pero ojala que la traducción les ayude. 0:03 Mi nombre es Mauri. Nací en Ventura pero crecí en la ciudad de Oxnard y vivo en Colonia. Agarre mi primer guitarra cuando tenía once años, pero cuando tenía ocho, mi hermano tomó clases en la preparatoria y cuando no estaba en casa yo, tu sabes, usaba su guitarra porque si estaba ahí y me veía, uh, me pegaria. 0:45 Yo tenía un cuarto allá pero mi hermano se vino a vivir aquí y se quedo con mi cuarto. Y ahora me tengo que dormir en la sala. Algunas veces cuando estoy grabando, la gente pasa; Mi mamá trapiando y mi hermanita llorando. Tengo que parar de grabar y hacer lo otra vez. 1:17 Cuando cumpli diec y seis, agarre mi primer mixer, que fue dos años atrás. El mixer es viejo como los de los 90s. Es ese que está allá. Nosotros grabamos la música aquí. Yo me paro aquí y Jason se para allá y la batería se queda allá. 1:50 Antes, tocaba en shows donde estaban bandas de metal. Yo me gusta el metal. Es en donde yo empecé. Tocaba guitarra, sabes, como la música de Punk. Tocaba música de los Dead Kennedys. Es como empecé. Y poquito a poquito cambie de genero. Se me hace que era la misma experiencia de Anderson Paak. 2:25 Usualmente, mi hermanito ayuda reemplazar Josh cuando no está. Cuando estamos practicando y necesitamos a alguien, mi hermano lo hace por nosotros. Mi papa me compro mi primer instrumento de teclado cuando tenía quince años. Lo tocaba todo el dia. Creo que el primer cancion que aprendi era la tonada que DJ Shadow usa en la canción Midnight In a Perfect World. 3:38 Cuando era niño, mi hermano escuchaba N.W.A y musica de rap. Y casualmente me gustaban los tonadas de esas canciones. Eso era Funk. Funk y Soul. R & B. Jazz. Siento que esa era la razón por la que yo me quedaba en el cuarto tratando de replicar y crear nuevos sonidos que me satisfacieran como yo quería. Es divertido crear nuevos sonidos que a otras personas les gustan también. Honestamente, ese era yo cuando tenía doce años. Eso es lo mejor que me a pasado en la vida. 4:10 Cuando te sientes triste y feliz al mismo tiempo, es un sentimiento muy bonito. Cuando te sientes triste y escuchas una canción que es triste pero que te hace sentir feliz, pues que bueno. Te ayuda a pasar el día. Esto era yo. Me gustaría agradecer a las personas que tomen el tiempo para escuchar. Es un momento que tarda de tres, a seis minutos pero que te hace sentir positivo durante la vida. 4: 37 Mauri: Bueno pues, ahí está. Fue todo. Entrevistador: Fue todo? Mauri: Si, no hay bajista. Después de esta parte hay un solo pero está bien. No lo necesitamos. Entrevistador: Corte. Salió bien.

I like how he's playing Conker's Bad Fur Day in the background

I Feel sad an Happy the best Feeling 😭😭

Can't stop watching this Mauri is so humble and his voice is mesmerizing........💕 You already made it man. Confia en dios

“Mauri” in the māori language of New Zealand means “life force” and this guy has a beautiful one ❤️ I know his name isn’t maori, just thought I’d share ✨ arohanui

Finally, been waiting for this since Mauri first teased it on instagram.

His brother is playing Conker’s Bad Fur Day ok the 360 in the back! Love it

Been deadass hooked to Los Retros since the day I saw them live. 🔥👏
