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. | ||
