{"product_id":"cochemea_vol-2-baca-sewa_2021_mdl","title":"Vol 2: Baca Sewa","description":"The intergalactic electro-sax warrior of the Dap-Kings returns with a groove-laden follow-up to All My Relations. 'Vol. II: Baca Sewa' is an expressive and transcendental journey through the archives of his indigenous roots and beyond. Drawing on ancestral memories and family histories, this album is a bold, semi-autobiographical work that plunges us into the annals of family stories, mythology, and cultural imagination. Baca Sewa is Cochemea's original family name before Spanish colonization and the fracturing or erasure of ancestral knowledge and practices. The melody of the title track was composed by Anthony Gastelum and features vocals and percussion from the Baca Sewa Singers, a group composed of multiple generations of family members. The album is filled with sonic tributes and memories. \"Chito's Song\" is a contemplative and ethereal tribute to a beloved uncle. \"Curandera\" evokes the memory of the irrepressible healing power of women's medicine. \"Black Pearl\" is a tribute to his great-grandfather, heir to indigenous people enslaved as pearl divers in the Gulf of California. Leading a seven-piece ensemble of New York's finest percussionists and members of Daptone's rhythm section, Cochemea has reconstructed ancient elements of drums, winds, and vocals, creating his own world of emotional textures and rhythmic possibilities. This musical and spiritual synthesis is made possible through his deep veneration of the brass, music, and traditions that came before him. 'Vol II: Baca Sewa' is an offering and the continuation of Cochemea's explorations, part of a musical process of cultural reappropriation and healing through connection, relationships, memory, and imagination.","brand":"Cochemea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55311958507864,"sku":null,"price":20210716.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0823134006713.jpg?v=1760406996","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/cochemea_vol-2-baca-sewa_2021_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
