Consequence of Energy don’t just play music — they summon it. Between the percussion storms, the fearless vocals, and grooves deep enough to shake tectonic plates, this record was like capturing lightning in a surf town bottle. I came back from Chile with sand in my shoes and a mix that kicks ass. – Dr. Garth Richardson
“Freedom” is the first single from Chile’s Consequence of Energy from their forthcoming album “We Are One”. Recorded in 2025 in Pichilemu, Chile, the Surf Capital of South America, “Freedom” is a hard-edged alternative rock track with teeth.
“Freedom’ came to life during a spontaneous late-night writing session” says lead singer Michael Bianci. ” We weren’t trying to write a ‘hit’ or a debut — we were just channeling energy, honestly and freely. The lyrics and melodies came together naturally, almost as if they had been waiting to emerge. Later, we refined and recorded the track at Los Lobos Records, in Punta de Lobos, Chile. That space, surrounded by cliffs and ocean, amplified everything we felt. But the spirit of the song remained raw, urgent, and unfiltered — just like that first night”.
Produced by Canada’s legendary GGGarth Richardson (Rage Against the Machine, Gallows, Skunk Anansie), engineered by Dean Maher (AC/DC, Slayer) , mixed by Dave Schiffman (Adele, Pup, Weezer, System of a Down),
and mastered by the Grammy-winning Howie Weinberg (21 Grammy Awards),
the song is built to hit hard—and leave a mark.
“Ten years after first working with the guitarist Diego Sagredo in Vancouver, I got the call to come to Chile — and I’m so glad I did. Consequence of Energy is a band with something real to say, and the talent to say it loud.” said producer Garth Richardson.
