Acid Coco - Yo Bailo Sola (El Palmas Music) | Le Mellotron Premiere
Acid Coco offer up a female empowering cumbia anthem on first single from upcoming debut album.
On “Yo Bailo Sola” there is no mistaking the cumbia beat, but Acid Coco break with the dogma of tradition (a recurring theme in their work), the song’s female protagonist telling her would-be dance partner to leave her be, she wants to dance this cumbia alone.
Breaking the same traditions that also inform their work is all par for the course for Acid Coco, a Colombian duo whose debut album Mucho Gusto will be released later this year. Recorded across two charged sessions in Geneva, it’s an album that finds emotional and physical catharsis through evoking the music and memories of a Colombia where they no longer reside, but which looms large across their work.
Each song is a vignette of Colombian life: a romance set to a champeta rhythm; recollections of falling asleep to the sound of a tambor beat as family members party across the room; songs about tongue-in-cheek discoteca loves but also breakups; and reality always present, with the spectre of violence, that so many Colombians lived (and continue to live) through, never far away.
“Yo Bailo Sola” takes inspiration from cumbia from the 1950s. Music that speaks of spirituality and solemnity but that is filled with mischief. As a Gibson riff and Colombian tiple propel the song forwards we hear Andrea break the conventions of cumbia. Often a couples dance, she tells her admirer: “yo bailo sola” (“I dance alone”).
“Cumbia is something we grew up with, it has always accompanied us, it is part of who we are!” (“Este ritmo es algo con lo que crecimos, nos acompaña desde siempre, es parte de lo que somos!), say the duo, whose album also includes champeta, son montuno, reggaeton and tecnomerengue, as well as their own tropical punk hybrids.
“Yo Bailo Sola” will be released on July 17 by El Palmas Music.
