Description: | Paz en La Tierra is a result of a search by the Meridian
Brothers & Conjunto Media Luna of the heart of something
that can be called a 'power format' of Colombian Caribbean
music; Accordion , Guacharaca, Caja, Congas, Electric bass,
and vocals.
Departing from this idea, and casually working with the music
of a documentary on the famous singer Diomedes Diaz, Iván
Medellín (accordionist of Conjunto media luna), and Eblis
Álvarez from the Meridian Brothers, embarked on a new
work building a sound exclusively on the traditional format,
searching for several spaces between the lines in the
universe of accordion in Colombian music.
The duo departed from the basic: the line of vallenato, the
most famous in the country but not the only one, the line of
sabanero music more of the lands of Sucre and Córdoba
inclined towards cumbia, bullerengue, son vallenato among
other airs fed the group's ideas. The Barranquilla center
deserves a separate mention, due to its cosmopolitan
approach, using all kinds of influences, from the Caribbean
islands to ancient rhythms or even modern rock and funk,
also used as an inspiration for this record.
In the process, new ways of melody appeared and new ways
of expression emerged. Although the rhythms used in the
record are rooted in the traditional, the duo glitched those
rhythms turning them into new directions in the style, using
exclusively the past references to transmute the sound into
something that looks inside a parallel future.
Using several theatrical situations, alterations in musical
structures, and slight deformations of the traditional harmony
(a tonal center and its dominant) the result of "Paz en la
Tierra" is enigmatic and charming, and at the same time
directed towards the dance floor keeping the past alive and
flourishing the essence of the tradition. - .. TIERRAVinyl LP pressing. |
