Totally fresh and fabulous. Four types of music: puya (feat. lots of accordion), Merengue (upbeat & catchy), son (slower) and paseo (light & lively). Great performances throughout, you can’t go wrong with any track. Everything is SO good! Great notes too. 1. Upbeat, fun, completely happy paseo, great vocals/accordion. 2. Light & lively merengue w/some fast work from the band. 3. Wicked-trippy fast puya w/great perc/accordion/vox. Yow! 4. Bright & lyrical paseo with a sweet melody & cool vocals. 5. Happy merengue w/a totally bouncy sound. 6. Relaxed son w/soaring vocals. 7. Upbeat paseo w/driving percussion & cool accordion/vocals. 8. Midtempo paseo w/warm male vocals & tight arrangement. 9. Instrumental merengue w/a driving, extra fast sound. 10. Warm, midtempo paseo w/a broken heart sound. Very cool. 11. Midtempo, a lush, romantic paseo w/warm vocals. 12. Extra bouncy paseo w/great accordion and great vocals. 13. Bright and toe-taping paseo w/good vocals harmonies. 14. Wacky-fast instrumental puya. Holy cats! 15. Sweet paseo with a good blend of voices/accordion/perc. | ||
