El Aji Caribe


For some reason, Damiron's piano merengues are a tad more compelling than the usual merengue instrumentation. In addition, songs like these are dark, fit for dancing, and remind me of some konpa music. The prominence of the piano (or keyboards, as in some 1970s or 1980s konpa) is like something one could hear in the music of Richard Duroseau or in the sounds of some other mini-jazz (such as Les Vikings, or Tabou Combo).
