I downloaded Amindaj's mp3 album a couple of weeks ago and it's one of my favorite albums so far (for those who want the actual CD fresh out from yesterday, here: http://vinilkosmo.com/vko/shop.php and for mp3's here: http://www.vinilkosmo-mp3.com/amindaj-c-76_191_193...). I will be writing a review of it on Facebook (in Esperanto) in a few days, but this is my review in a nutshell:

+ Sound quality: Amazing. The band is from Cuba, a country which (in my personal experience having visited the island half a dozen times for musical purposes) has very limited means in terms of recording technology. Yet, in spite of that, they managed to achieve a recording quality by far superior to that of many European Esperanto artists. Of course, Triboulet did a fantastic mastering job, but the engineering and mixing were done on Cuban soil, and the result is stellar. This is one of the very few CD's that I can play at full volume without any distortion whatsoever.

+ Music composition & lyrics: In step with staples of Cuban music (I'm thinking Celia Cruz, Buena Vista Social Club and Compay Segundo), they play a laid-back and catchy sound track spiced with simple and repetitive lyrics (that's the West African influence on Caribbean music) that make you want to get up and dance lazily with your eyes closed, while you sip on a glass of Cuba Libre (rum & coke). ridulo.gif

This is an album I'll be playing often to warm up my winter days.
I recommend it to Esperantists and non-Esperantists alike.

My favorite tracks:
+ Ĉan Ĉan (a cover of Buena Vista Social Club's classic hit);
+ Lasu la malĝojon flugi
+ Mia voĉ’ pli laŭtos
