Encanto (2021) v The Lion King (1994)

Encanto: The team behind this creation went to Colombia to ensure they incorporated the sounds of Colombia into their movie. With the styles like salsa and cumbia and hip hop and traditional instruments, we felt transported. In fact, we think "We Don't Talk About Bruno" gave a great sampling of the cultural influences, including dances.

The Lion King: This movie was almost very different, can you imagine no "Hakuna Matata" and ABBA instead of Elton John? After all it was Elton who, apparently insisted the songs be enjoyable for kids and adults alike. Then again, "The Circle of Life" was so essential that as long as Hans Zimmer and Lebo M were there, it wasn't in any danger.

NEW SIGNING ALERT!!!

I am extremely pleased to announce that Bogotá, Colombia based indie / alternative / synthpop / post-punk artist Somos Del Aire, has joined the HHR family with their latest album Lienzos now available on Heritage Harmony Records' Bandcamp and YouTube channel.

Lienzos is an album that is equal parts upbeat, atmospheric and moody. The soothing melodies of synthpop and indie meld perfectly with the energy and edge of post-punk and alternative. Synthesizers, string textures, wind instruments and drum machines romanticize places and sensations that evoke the feeling of a nostalgic Sunday afternoon.

Listen to and purchase the album at the link below. All sale proceeds go directly to the artist as always with HHR.

Remember to always support emerging artists!

204: Maria Dolores Pradera // Maria Dolores Pradera acompañada por Los Gemelos

Maria Dolores Pradera acompañada por Los Gemelos (AKA En homenaje a Colombia) Maria Dolores Pradera 1969, Zafiro

Maria Dolores Pradera was a beloved Spanish singer who specialized in the music of Latin America. I’ve seen the recordings that make up this 1969 LP released under a variety of titles, including Maria Dolores Pradera acompañada por Los Gemelos (the original), Cariño Malo (on Spotify), and, on my Columbian pressing, as En homaje a Columbia. That last title’s a bit of a cheap ploy; the local label bumped Columbian songwriter Efraín Orozco’s “Senora Maria Rosa” to the top of the track order, but most of the other songs were penned by Mexican composers. Regardless of the sequencing, these twelve ballads are splendid. It wreathes the act of quietly washing the dishes at night with dolorous romance, adds a sensual grief to drying utensils and placing them in the drawer.

Pradera has a deep, intoxicating voice and superb diction—even across the language divide, you can sense the masterly acting she brings to the lover’s lament “Pesares,” the bittersweet resignation of “A la orilla de un palmar.” The latter, written by Manuel Ponce, has a particularly lovely lyric:

“On the edge of a palm grove I saw a beautiful young woman, her little coral mouth and her eyes two stars. As I passed by I asked who was with her and she answered me crying: I live alone in the palm grove. I'm an orphan, oh I have no father, no mother, not a friend, oh come to comfort me. I spend my life alone I spend my life alone at the edge of the palm grove and alone I am entertained like the waves of the sea.”

Pradera’s accompaniment is minimal: her longtime sidemen Santiago and Julián López Hernández (Los Gemelos, literally The Twins) on classical guitar and Luis Gutierrez on bass. You wouldn’t want any more than that for these timeless songs of dignified longing.
