Los Suicadas

Limited vinyl LP pressing. The genre-crossing eight track album is the first of a trilogy, inspired by a Colombian local legend Jaime Llano Gonzalez, a Hammond organist famous for playing traditional Colombian music such as Pasillos, Bambucos, Cumbias, and foreign rhythms such as foxtrots or waltzes, in an ambient style. Inspired by Gyorgy Ligeti's piano studio of the same name, `Vertigo' simulates an eternal fall in melody, with the listener feeling the effects of vertigo. Elsewhere on the record 'Contienda' is inspired an Anibal Velazquez tune, called 'Kung-Fu', 'Ilidio' is inspired by a vintage romantic bolero, 'Lágrima' and 'Amargura' are based on traditional rhythms Bambuco and Pasillo, and 'Cazador', a fast Cumbia, was inspired by a poem about a hunter and his daily habits.
