Reviewed 2012-05-25
Hip and hot Afro-Peruvian music from this Lima-based collective. A sexy blend of electronica, dub, and Afro-beat plus some delicious roots/folk overtones. It’s fun, fresh, and delicious. The great percussion is especially catchy. Plus dishy vocals & beats. Sexy summertime dance music. Way, way, cool. Play it all.

1. Instantly catchy sexy fem vox in a sexy upbeat elec.
2. Hot & heavy beats, great vox. Upbeat samba jam.
3. Starts w/a halt, picks up soon w/great male vox. Yum.
4. Great percussion in a sexy cha-cha-esque romp.
5. Fun and fast dance groove that is instantly hot.
6. Nicely funky electronica hook. Upbeat and fiery.
7. Starts w/halting vox then percussion & elec. Effects. Up.
8. Weird and wacky, like Afro-Peruvian Klezmer. So fun.
9. Snares into a mid/upbeat samba wiggle.
10. Cool Afro-Peruvian funk, starts slow, picks up.
11. Spoken word then a wicked fast party. Yow!
12. Midtempo w/an unpredictable blend of effects. Cool.
