“el error” starts off calm and keeps that pace the whole way through. The tempo doesn’t rush and the melody never overplays its hand. There’s a subtle tension underneath everything. You feel more than you notice, and the song lets that do the work instead of spelling anything out.
wicho sounds comfortable sitting in the space. Not dramatic. Not broken. Just unsure, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. A lot of artists write about doubt like it’s a performance. This doesn’t feel like that. It feels closer to someone replaying the same decision in their head while pretending they’ve already moved on.
Genre-wise, calling this indie or alternative is fine, but it’s incomplete. The song leans on guitar in a way that’s older than playlists. There’s blues in the phrasing, not in a showy way, just in how the notes drag their feet a little. The rhythm section keeps things from drifting too far, but it never tightens the leash. Everything stays slightly loose. On purpose.
What stands out most is what never happens. There’s no big emotional turn. No sudden lift meant to tell you how to feel. The song doesn’t resolve because the situation doesn’t. That’s honest. Some moments in life don’t come with clarity, just momentum. You keep going because stopping feels worse.
“el error” circles around missed timing and second-guessing. Not regret in the cinematic sense, more like that quiet frustration when you realize you waited for the wrong reason. The distance in the song isn’t just between two people. It’s between who you thought you were and who you’re slowly becoming, whether you like it or not.
wicho’s voice helps sell that idea. He doesn’t oversing. He doesn’t flatten things out either. There’s warmth, but it’s restrained. Like he knows if he pushes too hard, the song breaks. That control usually comes from listening more than performing.

Placed next to “volar” or “cuando te acercás,” this track is the afterthought. The moment when the door’s already closed and you’re standing there wondering if you should knock anyway. It gives upcoming “escalas en la distancia” some gravity. It suggests the album isn’t just about romance or nostalgia, but about movement, even when it’s uncomfortable.
“el error” sticks around. You remember the feeling more than the structure. That’s not an accident. This is a song for people who replay conversations in their head and still don’t know what they should’ve said. It doesn’t ask for sympathy. It doesn’t offer lessons. It just exists in that uneasy middle ground where most real decisions live. That’s what makes it work.
If you want a song that fills the room, this isn’t it. If you want one that keeps you company while you figure something out, “el error” is worth your time. Listen to it when you’re not trying to be distracted.
