Free Music Notes for Urban Cuban
Free Music Review: Wow! The most unique and fun album I've heard in a long time
Hit: 5 Stars
This unique album combines techno and latin in a completely unpredictable way; I've never heard anything like it. And I love it. It's not for everyone, maybe, but then again I usually really DON'T like techno and these songs get stuck in my head and won't let go. It's fun, danceable, with an energy unlike anything else in my music collection. If you like world beats and want to expand your horizons, get this album!
Urban Cuban Poster
This truly explosive mix of real Cuban music, beats, and samples is the brainchild of Tom Darnal, the former keyboard player of Mano Negra, who spent three years in Cuba working on the project, then returned to Paris and tweaked it all with DJ Sree. It was certainly worth the effort, knocking Cuban music quite definitely into the modern electronic age. Hip-hop and drum & bass sit perfectly next to son, chants, and drumming, and the rhythmically angular piano lines of Cuban jazz make sense over programmed beats. It all ends on a much quieter note (more French chanson than anything), but by then you're exhausted, anyway. And if the title track doesn't get your heart racing, check that you still have a pulse. --Chris NicksonPop Music CDs
