    "comment": "The Wookies are a Mexico City-based electronic group known for their genre-bending fusion of techno, disco, and funk-infused house. Drawing from both retro sci-fi aesthetics and gritty dancefloor energy, the band has carved out a space in Latin America’s electronic underground with their wild costumes, analog synths, and raw, unapologetic attitude.\n\n“Ora Pinches Vergas,” featuring the notorious Mexican performance artist and musician Silverio, is one of their most aggressive and memorable tracks. Released on their 2015 album Darkoteca, the song is built around a gritty, looping beat and the confrontational, shouted refrain “Ora, pinches vergas!!!” — a vulgar, tongue-in-cheek expression that can be interpreted as a rallying cry or as deliberate provocation. Silverio’s chaotic energy blends perfectly with The Wookies’ hard-driving production, resulting in a track that feels both satirical and cathartic.\n\nMore than just a club banger, “Ora Pinches Vergas” serves as a brash commentary on machismo and modern Mexican identity. It’s a bold statement piece from a group that thrives on pushing boundaries—sonically, visually, and culturally.\n\nhttps://open.spotify.com/track/5Yxqf4z4Ahvg6gAyVZRCzo",
