Loteria de la Cumbia Lounge was produced and recorded at Ramos' Cumbia Lounge - both a real and 'virtual' studio.
Loteria de la Cumbia Lounge is a pan-Latin American martini: equal parts traditional instruments (Spanish classical guitar, accordion, horns and more) and deep, urban, grooves with a dash of Esquivel and a measure of Morricone. Charanga Cakewalk's unique approach to Mexican, Latin American and World Music styling follows the road laid by such contemporaries as Sidestepper, Mano Chao and Material. The result is one of sheer movement and joy. At once sensual and exotic, it delivers music of the soul for the soul.
Multi-instrumentalist, studio whiz, producer, sideman extraordinaire (John Mellencamp; Patty Griffin, Paul Simon, ex-Bodean and Rembrandt) and musical visionary Michael Ramos presents this first CD from Charanga Cakewalk.
