It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Various Artists energies, virtually a rebirth. Now signed to Various Artists’s Sparrow Records, the title track from second album “Cd1″ leads Various Artists’s back-to-school campaign. This album has some very good songs like raul-sueno su boca and canta bahia-morango do nordeste. I wish that “Cd1″ album was instrumental.
canta bahia-morango do nordeste is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done. Music of los morenos-carnavalito(el humahuaqueno) is gentle, never overbearing. S.S.P.-pitanga boa is a great song for a cosy night in when it’s cold and wintry outside. Album opener la brasileira-tourment d’amour is a bright, upbeat ditty. In latinos-corazon espinado Various Artists spins a tale you want to hear to the end. Simple and heartfelt closing track miguel saez-mala mujer(latin remix) closes Cd1 on a high note. banda verano-comadre compadre is a bit different from Various Artists stereotypical stuff. red hardin-por un cafe por un helado is one of the more up-tempo songs on Cd1. Such hits like raul-baila(radio latin dance) will leave you hooked. cool sensation-she bangs is the gorgeous blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. This song could easily nestle itself onto the world top playlists. vibration inc.-dr. drum is a pleasing, and full of overall coherence that goes beyond other creations. Se Bem - Dj’s 2000 - Dj Malvado - Caly-Tua Boca Y Esquarda is one of the coolest songs Various Artists has ever recorded. You have to get essence of the the varaderos-que si, que no(nunca te decides)’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece. bonde do leo-o baile todo is a medium tempo tune. M&T-locamente enamorado is such a amazing and optimistic song that things can get just better. Voice and instruments in tito carmona-outro dia mas sin verte complement each other. negrocan-cada vez - This one makes me want to not only sing along. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener.
