The sounds are trying to resemblance a typical colombian kind of music, called cumbia or vallenato, not quite sure if they're the same. But anyways, that style in particular is well received in certain parts of latin america, hence why some people like it. I hate vallenato/cumbia, but for some reason, this track always puts a smile on my face, it's weird I know.
It surprises me that it got accepted in Europe and other parts of the world... I mean, if I was a dj I'd only play it in latin america and still I'd think about it, because not every latin likes vallenato/cumbia.
p.s.: If there's a colombian out there, to tell us the difference (if any) between vallenato and cumbia... |
the song is actually a mix of both. and the difference between vallenato and cumbia. cumbia is faster with a harder bassline and more danceable. vallenato is more old school if you will and is typically slower music where the acordion is a lot more prominent whereas cumbia uses the flute almost as much as vallenato. vallenato's are colombians drinking music if you will b/c a lot of is very depressing
