This is the first single of my upcoming album RITUAL. This song is a guitar approach to Colombian Porro, that morphs into a Cumbia. I really had fun creating the drum and bass groove.
lyrics
Te traigo mi canto
Magia tropical
De porro y festejo
Mi tierra de encanto
Siempre volveré
A anclar en tu puerto
Te traigo mi canto
Magia tropical
Con un tamborero
Mi tierra de encanto
Yo te llevaré
Y a coro te cantaré
Solo quiero tu magia
Siempre contagia
Llena de gracia
Solo quiero tu fuerza
Quiero tu risa
Quiero tu vibra
