Salsa Blanco – Salsa Blanco (WideHive) Reviewed by Sadie O., 11/17/06 Latin soul/rock/jazz/funk - Salsa from right here in the Mission District. Big orchestra, big sound, great musicians, cool beats. What’s not to love? No FCCs detected. I like 2 and 6 best, but it’s all tasty. 1. ***fast salsa with Afro-Cuban and jazz overtones and layers of sound. Lots of instrumentation, horns, vibes, etc. 2. ****slightly uptempo syncopated cha cha beat with cowbells and vocals – channeling Malo in a big way. Sweet! 3. ***Hendrix-y scratchy guitar, alto sax, then midtempo cool bop. Sounds of criminal activity in progress… 4. **slow jazz groove, pretty female vocals, almost a samba feel. 5. ***uptempo Afro-Cuban salsa, male vocals and chorus. 6. ****slow crawl, great percussion and vocal harmonies. 7. **slightly uptempo salsa instrumental. 8. **midtempo cha cha, female vocals. Baila! 9. *slow, jazzy groove that builds slowly, instrumental. 10. **downtempo piano-based mambo, very pretty. | ||
