Oh so cool! Chicha is a Peruvian blend of cumbia, Andean folk music, rock and roll and a bit of everything else. A blend of instrumental and vocal tracks. Think Amazonian surf guitars, R&B organ, and the house band in the coolest, grimiest dive bar in the jungle. All with a retro 70s sound. Read the great notes for lots of interesting info. Love all of this, especially the following (but all are good)
1. Midtempo w/great tinny guitars & relaxed sway. Delicious.
2. Upbeat w/retro keyboards and way hip percussion. Like a 60s film
3. Upbeat percussion and hip electric guitars in a driving, soulful jam.
4. Bright & fun midtempo wiggle w/great keyboards & fun vocals.
6. Cool jungle soul, upbeat w/lots of energy & a slight sense of kitsch
8. A mid/upbeat high-humidity hip shaker w/delicious guitar.
10. Fun upbeat dance w/cool vocals & a great beat.
12. Way hip midtempo groove w/a cool hint of the islands.
14. Relaxed and playful head-nodder with vocals.
15. Starts w/crowd noise into a happy hot-weather party song.
16. Cool keyboard/percussions right from start. Up/mid & so cool.
