Bogotá In Three Tracks

Kathryn Tickell presents three tracks showcasing Bogotá’s rich musical landscape, picked by avant-latin Colombian trio, Los Pirañas. Their new album titled Una Oportunidad más de triunfar en la vida is the result of a week of improvised sessions recorded in the Colombian capital, where grooves informed by Colombian cumbia, Latin American rhythms and West African highlife interlace with circular loops on electric guitar.

Elsewhere in the show, Finnish folk celebrating diversity, celestial music for harmonium and tanpura recorded in a park, and funky Anatolian psych-folk.
