Estimated Rating:

Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? No
Average RYM Score: 3.09
First track is very bouncy and upbeat, reminds me of the B-52s. No, I think it's someone else; very familiar though. Second track has a Doors “Riders on the Storm” feel about it, very atmospheric. “Enamorada” is a nice little Latin ballad, with again a somewhat familiar basic melody, “Futuro” has much more in the way of teeth, a hard-edged sort of marching beat and “Resolano de Luna” swings along in a kind of waltzy way. Really impressed with this so far. It just keeps getting better as it goes along.

Bit of hip-hop there on “Me Gusta Tu Manera” with again a trippy little Latin beat behind it, “Vavien” is a low-key, laid back kind of thing with an almost murmured vocal, “Que No” reminds me strongly of Lobo's “I'd Love You To Want Me”, and, well hell, the whole album is just excellent. What a find for me.
