Amazing Mexican pop here today for this week’s SUNDAY MORNING SUBLIME.
You already know we LOVE our Mexican Cumbia and here’s something that almost equals that phenomenal Mexican feel that I love so much in their music.
I’m just very surprised that this band, Sweet Electra are on their third album, “When We Abondoned Earth”, and I’d never heard of them before! I’m sure this album is going to open up a lot of ears over here in Europe.
It has some GORGEOUS spacey orchestral pop soundscapes of the highest order subdued with an earthy melancholy that I’m personally so fond of. The fact that tracks are sung also in Spanish and not just in English appeals to me too as I love foreign languages provided it does not sound EUROVISION and this does not man, not one bit…some of it sounds like Sonic Youth turning Spanish!
Not everything on the album works but in the main it’s a worthy addition to your collection. When it does work, it soars and inspires with emotion and makes you feel like flying in the sky!
