Vivxs en el Cravo
简介
Immerse yourself in the magic of the Colombian plains with the highly anticipated EP "Vivxs en el Cravo" by El Yopo. Since the beginning, Fabio "El Yopo" Quintero, a renowned bandolista and singer-songwriter from the Colombian Llano, has fearlessly blended joropo with various genres such as cumbia, ska, rock, electronica, and other world music influences. His lyrics, reflecting the experiences of the llanero people, are infused with a unique style of singing and interpretation of the bandola, connecting the traditional music of the Colombian eastern plains with local and global cultures, thus honoring the rich tradition of Joropo. In this special year, marking 11 years of his musical career, El Yopo continues to transport us to the heart of the Colombian plains with his distinctive style of Alternative Joropo. His latest creation, "Vivxs en el Cravo," is an EP recorded live in Yopal, Casanare, capturing the passion of the bandola and llanera harp. The EP's lyrics reflect the reality of his hometown and also address environmental issues prevalent in the eastern territories of Colombia. This EP features a production of five live performance videos, showcasing the traditional format of joropo. With a blend of vintage and classical aesthetics, the videos immerse us in a natural setting along the slopes of the Cravo Sur River, offering an absorbing audiovisual experience. The virtuosic melodies, intense dynamics, vaquería chants, japeos, and various artistic expressions present in the work authentically represent the idiosyncrasies of Casanare. While El Yopo has been recognized for his innovative fusion of joropo with genres like rock and electronica, "Vivxs en el Cravo" showcases a new facet by presenting joropo in its most traditional form. The EP includes three previously released songs by El Yopo, along with two new compositions, all performed in the traditional joropo style. Notably, the introduction of the harp brings a new element to El Yopo's distinctive sound.
