04 - Se Que Vamos A Llegar

Rizoma {feat. Irene Rosalia}

“Los Luceros” is our cover of a Bolivian folk song that has become a favorite of ours to sing in ceremony. Its beautiful words carry a message of reverence for the natural world—the mountains, the cacti, animals, the full moon, and the people who sing and dance their praises.

This one is further blessed with the participation of an old friend and masterful musician from Colombia who has lent his skills to many of my tracks over the years: Juan Carlos Arevalo When you hear the melody played in his quena flutes, you’ll see why they have become our favorite instrument!
lyrics
Los luceros de tus ojos
Son un cielo azul de paz

El cóndor con el jilguero, el fiero puma con el manso cordero
En coro cantarán

Los Andes nos protegieron, las espinas de los cactus nos envolvieron
La cascada despertó

La luna llena alumbrando
Los luceritos brillando
La Pachamama cantando
Y las cholitas bailando
Y los papachos curando

Akuchiwarmicha
Pachakuti está llegando
Akuchiwarmicha
La tierra está despertando

Los Luceros (ft. Irene Rosalia)

Dentro Hay Un Rio is the third single off the upcoming "Semillas De Poder" album by Yemanjo featuring Venezuelan singer/lyricist Irene Rosalia. A hypnotic and hopeful downtempo fusion of Latin Folktronica with elements of dembow and Afro percussion, this song sings of the flows of our internal and external waters
lyrics
Fluye con el rio, fluye con el rio


Dejate llevar como rio hacia la mar
Sabiendo que nunca estas solo al andar
Un mundo escondido te ha de esperar
Con seres divinos te vas a encontrar


Dentro hay un rio
Sin miedo al vacio
Caen las cascadas
Veredas sagradas


Dentro hay un rio
No tiene desvio
Sigue su camino
Sin dudar el destino

Gota a gota se puede transformar
No hay nada que limite tu cantar
Suelta como agua que no deja de bailar
Fluyendo, tu gozo da vida al pasar

Dentro hay un rio
Sin miedo al vacio
Caen las cascadas
Veredas sagradas

Dentro hay un rio
No tiene desvio
Sigue su camino
Sin dudar el destino

Orchestra Baobab is a Senegalese band established in 1970 as the house band of the Baobab Club in Dakar. Many of the band's original members had previously played with Star Band de Dakar in the 1960s. Directed by timbalero and vocalist Balla Sidibe, the group features saxophonists Issa Cissoko and Thierno Koité, two singers, two guitarists and a rhythm section with drums, congas and bass guitar. Since their formation, the band has predominantly played a mix of son cubano, Wolof music, and to a lesser extent Mande musical traditions.

Yemanjo's "Pachamama" (KONN Recordings, December 2017) receives 4 remixes from 4 world-class producers, each with their own distinctive sound.  The leading track "Pa'lante" is flipped by INTICHE into an uptempo instrumental driven by charango and flutes, while Synapps gives the tune a gritty hip-hop feel.  Joaquin Cornejo finds hypnotic depth with his version of "Aguita Pura", while Barbarella takes "Suma Pinta Yage" to incendiary new heights.

Yemanjo - Aguita Pura (Joaquín Cornejo Remix)

Ali Ibrahim "Ali Farka" Touré (31 October 1939 – 6 March 2006)was a Malian singer and multi-instrumentalist, and one of the African continent's most internationally renowned musicians. His music is widely regarded as representing a point of intersection of traditional Malian music and its North American cousin, the blues. The belief that the latter is historically derived from the former is reflected in Martin Scorsese's often quoted characterization of Touré's tradition as constituting "the DNA of the blues".

Yemanjo gives this classic Malian blues a combined hip-hop/slow house groove sure to fill dance floors from Toronto to Tombouctou...

Mario Julian Benassi (May 16, 1995-June 26, 2018) was a monumentally talented light warrior who permeated the world with his music, presence and positive vibrations.  I had the good fortune of being around him in the communities of Kauai, Nevada City, CA and Lake Atitlan, Guatemala.  This sublime song was one that Mario and I had planned to produce together before he tragically passed in the Yuba River in June 2018.  Luckily, our friend Mose Cagen (@mosemusica) recorded Mario playing the song in Lake Atitlan a couple of years ago so Mario's spirit can continue to live on through his beautiful voice and words.

Bosque Catedral

Bosque Catedral (feat. Aluna Project)

Susana Baca is one of the reigning queens of Afro-Peruvian music, a rich mix of infectious folkloric rhythms such as "Samba Lando" and "Alcatraz".  Much like the Cuban son, the magic of Afro-Peruvian music centers on the meeting of African drums and Spanish guitars.  I first heard Baca on David Byrne's Luaka Bop compilation singing her incredible classic "Maria Lando" and have been fascinated ever since.  
Viva Afro-Peru y Viva Susana Baca!
