A key figure of Spain’s movida madrileña, Miguel Trillo has spent his life documenting youth cultures and urban aesthetics — from late-Franco punks to the first generation of Spanish rappers and today's youngsters. His photographs, positioned between art, reportage, and visual sociology, reveal how style and self-expression take shape in the streets. At the core of his work stands Rockocó, a legendary series of self-published fanzines from the 1980s, now regarded as an icon of the movida. Through sharp, empathetic portraits, Trillo captured the diversity, freedom, and creative energy of a generation inventing itself anew. This new and previously unpublished issue #8, Especial Hip-Hop Madrid 1986–1991, completes the original series. The photographs were taken for a fanzine that was never realized — until now. They portray the pioneers of Spanish hip-hop in Madrid: b-boys, fly girls DJs, graffiti writers, and MCs, seen through Trillo’s unmistakable eye for authenticity and detail. Printed in its original photocopy format and released on occasion of Paris Photo 2025, ROCKOCÓ Número Ocho revives the raw energy of a movement in the making — a missing chapter in the visual history of European hip-hop.
