Description
Chicha Libre - Sonido Amazonico!
Psychedelic Surf Cumbias from Brooklyn:inspired by the Amazonian music craze that shares its name with the liquor favored by the Incas and still very popular throughout Peru, this new Brooklyn-based band are here to intoxicate you with their potent mixture of latin rhythms, surf guitars and psychedelic pop. All in all, a sound which wouldn't seem out of place in the soundtrack of a Tarantino movie.
By combining covers of forgotten Chicha classics with French-tinged originals, re-interpretations of '70s pop classics (such as 'Popcorn' and Joe Dassin/Toto Cutugno's 1975 hit 'Indian Summer'), and subtly executed cumbia takes on pieces by Satie and Ravel, Chicha Libre meld elegant homage with playful humour and a sublime twist of the new - pushing their music way beyond mere pastiche and into strange, sun-blanched epiphany.
