El Medio is a musical alias of Leonardo Balasques.

"From the acoustic vocals/strings intimacy of folk rock, to the naivety and innocence of twee pop themes and melodies, as well as the escapism of ambient sonic landscaping, not only does he manage to effectively employ these mediums, he also has his own attempts at breaking their traditional patterns and structures." - Club Fonograma

"Leo has crafted an expansive discography that experiments with the confrontation of synths and traditional instruments to create a folk/pop hybrid that warms the heart and stimulates the brain" - MAP by PuertoRicoIndie PR

"When paired with the orchestral nuances shaped by his lo-fi home studio El Medio successfully creates an intermingling of acoustic instruments and analog synths that is beautifully intimate." - RadioCoyote
