Latin Grammy nominee Jimena Angel returns to Yuksek’s Partyfine with colourful new album of global grooves, Aguacero. Cumbia, Latin electronica and pop hooks characterize this love-fueled and sunny sound.
Jimena is a singer, producer, guitarist and DJ from Bogotá who has already put out three albums, several singles and picked up a Grammy nomination. As well as touring the world as a solo artist and performing everywhere from Glastonbury to Roskilde, she is recognized as a Spanish rock pioneer who has been in Colombian bands Pepa Fresa, Sidestepper and Alerta Kamarada since the 90s. 

This new album was written when she was living in the Colombian Caribbean but also on tour in Europe, which musically influenced the sound with dub, highlife, Konpa and tropical disco fusing with the melodies of Colombian bullerengue and the “magical realism” of that part of the world. She says, “This is an album that speaks about love and how it transforms, as water does it since it rains, waters the earth, reaches the sea and evaporates to fall again in the form of a rainstorm. Thus, love is born... it illuminates hearts and lights flames in the body, little by little it grows and transforms, and sometimes it ends or needs to be cut abruptly, giving space to mourning, introspection, inspiration that creates art and helps to heal, to be reborn again as self-love and eventually be shared and illuminate other hearts ... It is the cycle of love."

'Telepatia' kicks off with bubbly highlife-style rhythms, shakers and trilling guitar licks topped with Angel's carefree vocals and big horns. 'Tierra Caliente' slows into fat, warm dub territory and 'Aguacero' is an introspective sound with pillow bass and lazy reggae horns with a smoldering vocal. 'Fuego' brings a dubby disco vibe with sliding hi-hats and pensive horns, while 'Selflove' is a warm Afro house exploration with acrobatic vocals shimmering through the steamy mix. 'Que Yo Ta Voy Pa' and 'Erasonera' keep it deep and cavernous with swaying dub undercurrents and organic percussion brushing up with electronic production that brings an irresistible pulse. 'Llego La Luz' has a carnival feel and celebratory energy before the broken beat swagger of 'Caracoli' and horizontal Latin dub bliss of 'Adios' closes with a heart-aching vocal full of soul.
