Santiago Downbeat - Salón De Baile LP
SKU: LQ170
Description:
From
South America to the world.
Santiago Downbeat is a
well respected orchestra that, since 2008, has been devoted to
write their original own music, strongly influenced by Jamaican
rhythms from the 60’s.
After having released two
stunning studio albums, toured Argentina, Europe and Chile, our
beloved ensemble have been kind of quiet, for nearly a decade.
Until 2024 with the release of the single ‘El Acuerdo’, a powerful
vocal Ska tune sung by the amazing Natalia Ramirez, the band lead
singer. And around 6 months later they released a second single
entitled ‘Abajo El Mar’, a tasty and soulful Rocksteady duet sung
by Natalia and, the Spanish based songwriter, Sebastian Orellana,
which transports us to the golden years enjoying these nice vocal
harmonies.
‘Salón De Baile’ is the
title of this brand new album formed by 10 songs recorded live in
the studio, with which we can feel the energy and maturity that
these 12 musicians have developed during the years, under the
composition and direction of the band’s trumpet player Cristian
Cerpa.
In his own words: “Salón
De Baile is like an ode to a place for reunion and celebration,
with it’s own ritual, where the common people goes for jumping or
just purge the weight of existence, through debauchery and excess
but, also, for generating communion and
connection.
As the lyrics from the
heavy reggae tune ‘Después De La Lluvia’ tells : “...And this way
you will jump and float in the living room, you will let yourself
be enveloped by this heat and, once again, you will leave your head
in a corner, like the thief who escapes from his
prison…”.
