A rare, self-released 1993 album from Venezuela, blending electronic music, jazz-funk, and Latin American sounds. Reissued on vinyl by TrueClass Records—a label run by Venezuelan-born Andrés Astorga (aka Trujillo) and Claas Brieler of Jazzanova. 2026 repress. The sound captivates with its Baalelic and Machine Beat-inspired elements, featuring passionate performances despite its independent roots. (Saito)
Track List
To be far ahead of your time sometimes means that you have to wait a while for the right moment to be understood. The visionary approach of multi-instrumentalist Johnny Lamas led him to experiment with a world of hybrid jazz-funk, ambient and electronic sounds while keeping the rhythms of Venezuelan traditional music alive. From 1993 to today, small recognition has grown into true admiration for this so specific sound and his "Danza Cósmica" masterpiece. TrueClass Records are pleased to present as their second release a complete restoration of this gem, beautifully remastered and redesigned, making it available now for the first time in fine audio quality on vinyl and digital formats.
