{"product_id":"eda-diaz_suave-bruta-vinyl_2024_lad","title":"SUAVE BRUTA (vinyl)","description":"With 'Suave Bruta', French-Colombian double bassist and singer Ëda Diaz presents her debut album, eleven tracks combining traditional South American rhythms and ultra-creative electronic experimentation. Halfway between a poetic astral chart and an express bridge over the Atlantic, Suave Bruta offers a unique experience. - - Gentle or untamed? Organic or electronic? Euros or pesos? Not choosing is still choosing: Ëda Diaz knows this because she wants it all, and she doesn't apologize for it! - - With Suave Bruta, the musician achieves an authentic reconciliation of the different parts of her identity, the rich and complementary fragments that she long mistook for opposites. French through her mother, Colombian through her father, Eléonore Diaz Arbelaez quickly learned to juggle languages, cultures, rhythms, and ways of practicing music thanks to numerous trips back and forth between Paris and Medellín. For example: for more than fifteen years, Ëda Diaz diligently studied classical piano at the Boulogne Billancourt Conservatory. But every summer, to the sound of the tiple and the small glasses of aguardiente clinking in the patio of the family home in Medellín, her grandmother would transmit to her the passion of Carlos Gardel's tangos, the romanticism of boleros, the joy of bambucos, and a whole repertoire of popular songs from the great traditions of South American music. From then on, uniting the two continents became Ëda Diaz's obsession. But how to do it? How to position herself? How to be herself? Since she felt neither the soul of a concert artist nor that of a folklorist, Ëda Diaz then turned to psychedelic rock! A step aside that allowed her to free herself from her academic complexes, to write her first lyrics, and to find her voice. The true epiphany, finally, took the form of a double bass, an obvious choice for Ëda Diaz, whom her father had raised on the most beautiful salsa tumbaos. On repeat at home: Buena Vista Social Club, Omara Portuondo, and Joe Arroyo, the most charismatic of all Colombian salsa singers. One of his great classics, 'Suave Bruta', gives its name to Ëda Diaz's first album, now at peace with her heritage, her identity, her tastes, and her era. - - Halfway between a poetic astral chart and an express bridge over the Atlantic, Suave Bruta thus offers a unique experience.","brand":"Eda DIAZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55310245724504,"sku":null,"price":23620893.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3521381579734_6d0bd016-f187-4086-840b-4d5c8b9d2641.jpg?v=1760318511","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/eda-diaz_suave-bruta-vinyl_2024_lad","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
