Equador

Ruido Selecto

The concept of this album is part of the search for Latin American dance sounds close to the equator, a specific latitude in the world which connects Latin America with Africa and Asia.

With “Equador”, Juan Esteban Herrera a.k.a Ruido Selecto, exposes his vision of Latin electronic music as a Colombian producer. This studio work has brought new challenges that have enriched the sound of the project because the album combines various musical interpretations such as; the electric guitar played by Ruido Selecto himself, voices, choirs, trumpets and percussion. All this, without moving away from the synthesizers and the characteristic bass music sound of Ruido Selecto.

In "Equador" the African influence always present in Latin American rhythms is explored. Due to this, the music of the Caribbean, the tropical forest and the Andes are protagonists in the musical production.

Ruido Selecto is a Colombian producer of electronic music that adopts Caribbean rhythms as the raw material of its sound. In essence, Afro music is a clear reference and for this reason his sound style encourages dance and dancing as reflected in his productions and live performances. The project is created and directed by Juan Esteban Herrera, guitarist, sound explorer and music producer from the city of Medellin - Colombia.
