Description: | MERIDIAN BROTHERS BRING ??LEGENDARY?? SALSA GROUP ??EL GRUPO RENACIMIENTO?? BACK TO LIFE ON NEW ALBUM!!
Colombia??s Meridian Brothers are up to their usual tricks with a delirious salsa pastiche. For their latest album they have partnered up with El Grupo Renacimiento, a supposedly-legendary salsa dura outfit from the 70s known for their ??b-class salsa? exploring themes of police brutality, social marginalisation, addiction and other human struggles
The lead single, ??Metamorfosis? sets the scene with deconstructed salsa percussion, a guaracha rhythm and lyrics imagining a post-human future, as Meridian Brothers?? Eblis Álvarez explains: ????Metamorfosis?? explores transhumanism through its main character who imagines waking up in Kafka-esque fashion to find himself turned into a robot. He complains that the world has become robotized, computerized; even intangible things like love and care have become digitized. He prays to the Yoruba deities to save him from this dystopian future of transhumanisation, where technology overtakes humanity. The song ponders if this is inevitable or if there could be a different outcome in our future.
The nine tracks, with Meridian Brothers & El Grupo Renacimiento set to be released by Ansonia Records, the legendary New York label known for releasing salsa and other diasporic Latin American music in the 60s and 70s. Remarkably this release will be their first new album in 30 years !! - ..
