Será El Flamenco

Sol Selectas is pleased to welcome back Spanish artist German Brigante with a stunning solo EP titled “Será El Flamenco”.

As the name suggests, “It Will Be Flamenco” is a fusion of traditional flamenco melodies with electronic grooves and rhythms, and all the recordings are original works, not sampled. This is a family release, with German’s own father Kurry featured on three of the songs on acoustic guitar, and his cousin Agustín performing flute on 2 songs as well. With such strong roots in the Flamenco tradition going back generations in German’s family, we can really feel something special and personal on this release.

“Acido Azul” is a certified dance floor hit, with 303 lines swirling on top of cowbells and a sultry female voice, combined with a dramatic drum roll build-up blasting us into the deep infectious bass lines German is notorious for.

“Açai” really highlights the flamenco guitar mastery of German’s father Kurry, with cousin Agustín backing him up on the flute, and Gitano chants on top.

“Será el Flamenco “ the title track has deep chords and pad progressions to highlight the vocal story being told, on top of another deep bass groove and Kurry’s mesmerizing guitar licks.

“Inquietud” is the perfect track to close this EP, taking the tempo down a notch without losing any excitement or emotion. The track grooves along with bright percussion fills, cosmic arpeggios and the lovely sounds of German’s talented family members.

The artwork by Helia Jamali shows the passion of a Flamenco dancer lost in the rhythms of the Andalusian skies.
