As many of you may already know, this year saw the launch of Aruba Red's self-titled debut album (produced by Prash from Catch 22 Music, your friendly local music production house).
It is an album we are very proud to be involved in not only because of the quality of Aruba Red's melodies and vocals, but also because she has a real message and depth to what she sings about. It's something we feel is more important that ever in these times. On top of this, the list of featured artists and musicians is really quite special!
Since the launch party of the album in September, a tour with Natty and an appearance on Nitin Sawnhey's new "London Undersound" record, things are going from strength to strength for Aruba Red. So much so, that ITunes requested a private show at their London headquarters.
Without being too cheeky, we'd really appreciate it if you would check out the album and buy a track or two if you're feeling the vibes!
Just to give you an idea of how well the album is going down, here are a couple of ITunes reviews to whet your appetite:
"Great Musical Fusion with Many Impressive Musicians & Featured Collaborations" *****
"Aruba Red's debut album is really different to most of the music out there at the moment. The album fuses lots of genres together in a natural & inspiring way. There are also loads of great musicians on the album including international reggae artist Jah Mason (My Princess gone) and Horacio 'El Negro' Hernandez and John Benitez who both have Jazz Grammys. I recommend this album to music lovers who crave a balance between musicality & lyrical content. Aruba Red has both in bounds and I hope this album receives the recognition it deserves" *****
"Groundbreaking" *****
"A must have for anyone that is tired of the pop machine. Let's push things forward!"
