Album Notes

Highly Recommended!

Editor's Pick. Terrific old-school salsa -- with trumpets *and* trombones -- and plenty of sabor and verve.

Some tracks are in the style of, say, Eddie Palmieri's La Perfecta, or Conjunto Libre where a simple coro phrase is often used as the basis for extended jams. "Atrevete" is a good example of that, and it's one of the best tracks on the CD. "Fabula," an unusual number, borrows from both Caribbean and South American sensibilities (is that also joropa? Brazilian?)and injecting it with a bit of techno-house flair. By far, the most modern track here (and featuring the electro-duck), and it would be interesting if they pushed further in this direction in their next release.
"Para Los Romperos" is a blow-out mambo-jazz like dance number might have been a hit at the Palladium.

REVIEWS

the best salsa band of our generation!

This cd is magnificent. The sound quality makes you think you're in a hot latin american club in your own home. The diversity each member brings to the group comes together in una mezcla of livelihood and passion!

Bio Ritmo is on fire

The songs and the production are great. A pure sound that reminds me of the classic seventies salsa. I like the way salsa is mixed with for instance samba. Great for listening and dancing. Atrevate is an instant hit on the dancefloor.

Nothing but bliss

I must first make this disclaimer. Unless you have seen Bio Ritmo live, you will never know how good they really are! 
I've seen Bio Ritmo live several times and I think this is by far their best outing. Everybody does a good job and that Salsa Classica sound is banging. My favorite tracks on this CD are La Jamaca, Atrevete, y Hermano. My only complaint is that the songs are two short! (actually its not really a complaint, I just love the groves these guys set up and I don't want them to end!) Anyway - if you are a fan of Salsa, or if you just love good music. Do yourself a favor and pick up this CD.

Good Salsa, Makes you wanna dance!!  A blend of that New Yorican Salsa!!!  Good arrangements, good bass and piano licks!!  Good percussion performance!!  A good salsa cd for the classic salsa lovers.  The band is good and so is the music!  The mixdown & mastering aspect of this production is ok, not the commerical process but it sounds good.   It sounds like a live CD!!  Overall review...Good CD, Good Music!!!
