THE BAND by Arema Arega

I made THE BAND as the last track of one of my dj sets. An old school beat, inspired by the New Orleans Mardi Gras with its bouncy marching bands, colourful street parties, positive and triumphant energy. I found myself singing the melodies of the brass section and they were questions and answers with a naïve and playful vibe.

Arema Arega's work as both visual artist and composer is the result of the melange of her Ethiopian father, her Cuban mother and her Soviet birth in the long, cold Summer of 1979. Blues blends with Bossa, Jazz meets Soul, Folk flirts with Funk and all under the tropical mix of the Cuban Rhythms
