Chilean group Chico Trujillo have been around for roughly fifteen years and in the span of that time have grown to become leaders of Cumbia scene. What's interesting about Chico Trujillo is rather than doing this in Chile, they cut their teeth in Berlin. Yes, Berlin! Bringing the caliente to Germany Chico Trujillo took the party to Europe and since then have been just about everywhere else. Now with a global reach and full grasp of Chilean as well as South & Central American musical references these guys are rapidly becoming global legends!
Basically a party band with more energy
than the Argentinian oil supply, Chico Trujillo load their album
Reina De Todas Las Fiestas
with enough horns, Latin percussion and shuffly danceable rhythms to
make the dead dance. This record brings the tropical heat of
Carnival and with the help of 30 piece brass band Banda Wiracocha
there's no way this album couldn't be raucous. The rhythms, the
movement and the energy of Reina De Todas Las Fiestas
will make you feel as though you are in the middle of a massive
street celebration. It's a stunning album of kinetic vivacity that
never eases up or backs down. Chico Trujillo is on a mission to make
sure you enjoy yourself while listening to Reina De Todas
Las Fiestas and they succeed.
This record will literally have you dancing in the streets.
Party
music from South America that's in touch with the global pulse of
musical culture is what Reina De Todas Las Fiestas
is all about and throw in a never ending Cumbia beat and you have
perfection. This is a fantastic effort that truly sees Chico
Trujillo reaching the pinnacle of their career and they've done so
with a fiesta in their heart.
