STREAM/SHARE HERE
Vancouver psych Latin fusion group Los Duendes share their new single 'Elf-Man' out now on all digital streaming platforms. Listen here.
'Elf-Man' is the 2nd single from Los Duendes' debut album Me Recuerdas set for release on November 17th. It’s a cinematic Cumbia with a descarga inspired by 70s Salsa.With this track, the group highlights the correlation between old spaghetti western soundtracks, 60s surf-guitar and psychedelic Cumbia from the Amazon.
"This song was composed to fuse the genres of Cumbia, Spaghetti Western, and cinematic music," says guitarist Seb Chamney. "The chord progression of D minor to A flat major is what gives the song its unique harmonic flavour."
Vocalist Sangito Bigelow adds: “Imagine a desolate Sonoran desert scape - the sky turns electric pink as the sun sets on cracked red earth. Snakes, lizards, and beetles welcome the arrival of nightfall, a reprieve from the day’s blistering heat. In the distance, a lone figure on horseback trudges slowly across the horizon. He’s a cowboy… but he’s not entirely human.”
'Elf-Man' is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit losduendesmusic.com.
