Listening to Julian Mayorga is hearing the current Colombian sound taken to even more exciting terrain.
His music is everything that defines him: experimentation, humor, reflection, passion. -- Vogue (Mexico)
Avant-garde Colombian singer-songwriter Julian Mayorga returns with his ninth album, a clattering, absurdist slice of post-cumbia psychedelia. Chak Chak Chak Chak is a feverish mix of angular electric guitars, circuit-bent beats, found percussion and rapid-fire incantations, with influences that include Tom Ze , Tom Waits and Captain Beefheart.
Frenetic energy meets satirical wit. Surrealist fables entwined with defiant sonics.
