Señor Coconut y Su Conjunto • El Baile Aleman



El Baile Alemán (1999) compuesto por revisiones tropicalizadas de piezas originales de la emblemática agrupación electrónica Kraftwerk. El resultado fue telúrico, una extraña mezcla de calidez latina y metronómica frialdad alemana, siendo recibido con el mismo placer por los aficionados de ambos polos, los amantes de la electrónica y el krautrock y los más cercanos a la música latina. Los fundadores de Kraftwerk, Ralf Hutter y Florian Schneider, celosos al extremo con su obra, aprobaron de inmediato las adaptaciones realizadas por Uwe: “Showroom Dummies”, “The Robots” y “Neon Lights” a ritmo de cha-cha-chá, “Trans Europe Express” y “Music Non Stop” bajo la óptica de una cumbia y “Autobahn”, “Homecomputer” y “Tour De France” al son del merengue. No hay duda que este disco pasará a la historia por osado, delirante y contagioso, en el que no hay conjunto alguno acompañando al Señor Coconut, sinó computadoras y teclados que suenan como marimbas, charrascas, timbales, bongos, maracas y metales. Participan en las voces el chileno Jorge Gonzalez (Los Prisioneros) y el venezolano Argenis Brito. Bien merece la pena imaginar a Perez Prado, Tito Puente y Benny Moré interpretando piezas de inspiración industrial y tecnopop.

Automatic translation:
The German Dance (1999) composed of tropicalized revisions of original pieces of the emblematic electronic group Kraftwerk. The result was telluric, a strange mixture of Latin warmth and metronomic coldness German, being received with the same pleasure by fans of both poles, lovers of electronics and krautrock and those closest to Latin music. The founders of Kraftwerk, Ralf Hutter and Florian Schneider, jealous to the extreme with their work, immediately approved the adaptations made by Uwe: "Showroom Dummies", "The Robots" and "Neon Lights" to the rhythm of cha-cha-chá, "Trans Europe Express" and "Music Non Stop" under the lens of a cumbia and "Autobahn", "Homecomputer" and "Tour De France" to the sound of merengue. There is no doubt that this album will go down in history as daring, delirious and contagious, in which there is no set accompanying Mr. Coconut, but computers and keyboards that sound like marimbas, charrascas, timbales, bongos, maracas and metals. The Chilean Jorge Gonzalez (The Prisoners) and the Venezuelan Argenis Brito participate in the voices. It is well worth imagining Perez Prado, Tito Puente and Benny Moré playing pieces of industrial inspiration and technopop.

  1. An absolute gem of an album, and still maintains to pay proper hommage to Kraftwerk

    1. Certainly I think it is the best reinterpretation of the themes of the parents of the techno, without mistreating them and being absolutely original. regards
