It is clear that Colombia, like other Latin American countries, It has thousands of rhythms in its environment that can contribute to the great universal dance party. In an age where the minds and ears of the entire world constantly crave new excuses to shake their bodies and dance wildly, Exploring the wide catalog of sounds and rhythms of the Colombian territory is a good decision. Colombia, it must be remembered even though it is obvious, It's not just cumbia. The richness of the sound textures emanating from the western coasts of the country is quite extensive and possesses a very particular intensity. Arturo Brahim has understood this and has worked with it with special intelligence in Radiant.
Brahim, who He still maintains his purely electronic project called Posthuman, has developed a particular taste for music from the Pacific Ocean, messing with contradanzas, currulaos and Chocoan bundes, and mixing them with electronic elements, in search of the new Colombian rhythm that will take over the world. Their work, with the advice of producer Carlos Polanía, This has led him to investigate that region thoroughly and discover on one of his trips to Eryen Korath, a young singer and marimba player, originally from the city of Buenaventura, Heir to the region's musical tradition, a virtuoso on her instrument, and with a captivating and distinctive voice compared to current trends. Somewhere between Brahim and Korath They have been building tunes of incredible flavor that deserve to be enjoyed with all the pleasure in the case.
Radiante has released a new single called I'd like, where the singing of Korath, preserving respect for its folkloric origin, It knows how to adapt perfectly to modern production specifications. The recording expresses a candor that becomes contagious as it progresses., and achieves an interesting harmony that doesn't require big explosions to make any of the listeners move their bodies. I'd like It's a brilliant preview of what's to come. Natural Cadence, the first album of this good new contemporary artistic expression.
We've said it before, but now we're happy to confirm it: Radiante arrives just in time to add more excitement to the dance world, and will surely soon attract the attention of fans.
