Reviewed 2006-09-26
This Lima-based group takes the Afro-Peruvian music tradition and adds electronica, some hip drumming, and sexy vocals to give an updated sound to their musical heritage. It’s a sophisticated global beat sound. All very similar, but good stuff.

1. Mid/uptempo groove w/a hip, catchy sound.
*2. Relaxed down/midtempo groove w/good male vox.
*3. A sexy midtempo classic given a hip electronic update.
4. Hip & midtempo w/cool vocals & strong Afro-Latin feel.
5. Mid/uptempo dance groove w/extra programming goodness.
6. Spare, midtempo chill w/muted horns & vox.
*7. Midtempo lando track w/an urban edge.
8. Cool percussion in this mid/uptempo dance track.
9. Downtempo electro-afro-peru mix.
*10. Bright & catchy space cha-cha groove.
11. Mid/uptempo blend of jazz & electronica.
12. Upbeat percussion-driven dancefloor groove.
*13. Delicious tango w/subtle touches of programming.
