ESL News II

Ocote Soul Sounds & Adrian Quesada have done it again - a new album titled Coconut Rock is released today! Adrian Quesada and Martin Perna, respective band-leaders of famed ensembles Grupo Fantasma and Antibalas, once again unite under the Ocote Soul Sounds banner for their new full length album, Coconut Rock, released on ESL Music. After two stellar albums, this time around Coconut Rock finds the duo loosened up, slipping effortlessly into their trademark psychedelic afro-latin funk groove. From the descarga rhythms of album lead-off “The Revolt of the Cockroach People” to the cumbia bounce of “Tu Fin, Mi Comienzo” to the easy guitar soundscapes of “Vendendo Saude e Fe” featuring Brazilian songstress Tita Lima, Coconut Rock is the third chapter in Ocote Soul Sound’s unparalleled journey through sonic realms beyond!
Coconut Rock is available now through our webshop , iTunes and Amazon. Be sure to get your copy today!

Sugestão de fim-de-semana...

Chega o Verão, aproximam-se as férias, as festas e aquele ambiente de relax que só mesmo esta estação nos consegue oferecer. Com ele vem também a música que acaba por funcionar como banda sonora de tantos momentos , com amigos, numa esplanada, e por que não, numa praia ao pôr-do-sol. Este último cenário foi o que idealizei para escutar esta bela faixa de Deux e David Penn - "Same Way". Ambiente baleárico, como só Ibiza nos pode proporcionar num belo final de dia. Uma das batidas do Verão...
