Marimbas del Guapi - Behind the Scenes

'Marimbas Del Guapi' is a 5 track EP recorded in Guapi, Colombia. It tells the sonic history of Colombia’s Pacific Coast Afro-Colombian music through contemporary electronic music. Recorded in the Torres family’s wooden house on the banks of the Guapi river, the making of ‘Marimbas del Guapi’ was not an easy task. The entire recording was powered by generators. The house, only accessible by boat, has no electricity and experiences regular flooding due to the rising river tides. ‘Marimbas Del Guapi’ has a hypnotic, impulsive and raw sound. The vocals and performance by Genaro and Francisco Torres convey deep human emotion, while allowing the rhythm to turn sorrow into joy. It evokes the jungle and the tides of the river, as if both the music and its surroundings were made of the same substance. These deep traditions evoke a true sense of being alive, touching the most primary parts of our humanity. In a way, marimba music is like pouring purifying pure water into our ears. Proceeds from the album will be used to support the masters Genaro and Francisco Torres in their work to preserve the music of the South Pacific region of Colombia. https://vaki.co/es/vaki/marimbasdelri...
