Rhythms Del Mundo - Cuba (Digi Pack) (Audio CD)

Customer Review

Experimental fusion cuisine with a difference: Rock / pop bands take to the Cuban masters of the "Buena Vista Social Club".

The result is' to refer undoubtedly and exaggeration was amazing: The characteristics of both styles of music have remained not only preserved, but have connected to something bigger, fuller, yet wonderfully light, carefree.

Right at the beginning raises the Cuban grooving piano the voice of Coldplay singer "Chris Martin" enchanting the room, wrapped the astonished listeners and sends him express to the Caribbean. After the "easy-care" appearance of "Jack Johnson" mix a even the wild "Arctic Monkeys" and here the "Buena Vista Crew" can they rock out even really proves - "Dancing Shoes" is determined not to heat up some winter parties. "She Will Be Loved" of "Maroon 5" and "Modern Way" by the "Kaiser Chiefs" sound as if they had just been waiting to be put into a new musical outfit. In addition to the concept of singing English & Cuban music mix purely kubanisierte versions such as "Fragilidad" of Sting or "Killing me softly" re-interpret "Omara Portuonda" as well as original songs by Cuban "Ibrahim Ferrer" à la "Buena Vista "the overall sound.

Conclusion:

For me - a lot of music listeners - is one of the most amazing works since the invention of music. As one of the very few I stood "Buena Vista Social Club" quite opposite with negative criticism. Aside from the title track asleep somewhat and boring as I still find. This work can be in any case to miss this shortcoming. Who the first "Buena Vista" is also liked this album certainly close to the heart - but every / r else should risk a short acoustic views - which should actually be enough to fall in love.

Fresh & crisp, rocking, romantic - Langzeithörfaktor guaranteed. This can assist with the purchase of the CD nor the Association for climate protection "APE" is on top of the cherry.

Out tip: Clocks (Coldplay)
