А вот одной этой рекомендацией last.fm уже оправдал обращение к этому ресурсу навсегда. Просто стыдно, что до меня эта музыка доходит через четыре года. Группа снова из Барселоны, находится между своими знаменитыми соотечествнниками (которых я склоняю в этом сообществе постоянно) и Ля Кабра Меканика. Но при этом замешана на, ни много, ни мало, на ( Read more... )

Эдди К претендует представлять в мире стиль кубатон. Этот альбом не содержит кубатон. Он содержит банальный пуэрториканский реггитон. Кубатон - это когда реггитон пытаются сыграть более менее музыкально, хотя бы с подобиями мелодий, гармоний или усложненных ритмов. Здесь это все есть всего лишь в одной теме - La gente que me quiere, в которой Эдди ( Read more... )

I want to thank our local DJ who ended one of milongas with four beautiful Cumparsitas. The best of them turned out to be the one of Conjunto Berretin from Portland. Despite all the visible simplicity of this project, it definitely occupies one of the most important niches being a greate example of tango's fusion with jazz and swing. Relaxedness, ( Read more... )

Actually, I wanted to talk rather not about the album itself, but about a funny tendency. There are lots of electrotango projects indeed, and all of them deserve the same words, mainly, bashful. I remember how I hesitated whether to buy this album or not, when it was just released. I didn't buy it then and don't regret. It is equally poor (if not ( Read more... )

It's hard to add something to the reviews by velworks and merelana. The music is just luxurious, beyond the tastes and styles. The only thing to point out is that Mafalda's singing manner sometimes resembles the one of Demis Roussos in his golden 70s. Was it Roussos who copied the fado interpreters' manner, or is it tyipcal for all the Mediterranean (although ( Read more... )

Another short review as in the case of Bajofondo. Profanation. Neither feet are dancing, nor ears are listening.

Otra reseña breve, como en caso de Bajofondo. Profanamiento. Ni pies estan bailando, ni orejas estan escuchando.

Такая же короткая рецензия, как и в случае с Бахофондо. Профанация. И ноги не танцуют, и уши вянут.

Lidia Borda's name is pronounced with great respect by the top tango masters (Juan Cedron). She is fairly considered as one of the most beautiful voices of young generation. It's difficult to dance to her recordings, because her voice takes all your attention. The album itself, which was recorded by a nameless group consisting of percussionist ( Read more... )

You won't find too much of such works, which make your hair shiver and leave you speechless. Famous guitar player, singer and arranger, Juan "Tata" Cedron emigrated in 1974 to Paris and only recently retuned home. let's hope, forever. This album is unique first of all for being based on lunfardo poetry of such masters as Luis Alposta, Carlos de la ( Read more... )

Once upon a time a Czech woman with an undoubted musical talent fell in love with Latin music strongly and forever. It resulted in an extraordinary album of the songs of her own with tender arrangements. Marta herself sings with a low beautiful voice and plays cuatro. The style is genuinely Panlatin. Close to Soledad Bravo, Mercedes Sosa, Marcela ( Read more... )
