What a barbaric month August was in Peruvian music. There were pleasant surprises in the face of somewhat hectic weeks with all the political strife taking place in the country. An amazing contrast with so many artistic events, the constant visit of international artists and the good tempo of musical releases of all rhythms and flavors. This August in particular brought with it an interesting handful of collaborations between Latin American artists that strengthen collaborative bridges and ratify that borders do not exist when it comes to making and enjoying music. Enjoy our selection as a good plate of sausages with all the creams.

Brilliance in an unquestionable chemistry. cliffs it's amazing. The collaboration of the Quito artist Mauro Samaniego with the Peruvian La Zorra Zapata is one of the outstanding premieres that August left us. A theme with a peculiar and calm nuance that confirms the quality of the talent of both proposals as a team. Nuria Zapata shows her creative spirit that keeps her composing new music, about to release cliffs, a new album with an introspective and experimental pop cut from which we have already heard cuts like Nanana and a stroke of dawn; now present cliffs, a song with which, from his intimacy, he describes a small mania of self-demand and perfection. Recommended for all tastes.
