VENEZUELA 70: Cosmic Visions Of A Latin American Earth - Venezuelan Experimental Rock In The 1970s 2LP NEW
Soul Jazz Records
New 10th anniversary fully remastered special silver-vinyl edition of Soul Jazz Records’ ground-breaking Venezuela 70 featuring Vytas Brenner, Pablo Schneider, Angel Rada, Miguel Angel Fuster and many more. // Venezuela 70 was the first ever compilation of its kind to take a look at the fascinating music scene created in Venezuela in the 1970s, a stunning blend of Funk, Latin Rock, European electronic experimentalism, Jazz and more! // Venezuela during the 1970s was both a modern cultural and economic powerhouse in Latin America, rich from vast oil supplies. Situated at the northern part of South America, with neighbouring Colombia to its west, Brazil to its south and a north coast bordering the Caribbean. The country’s position and wealth led to an explosion in cultural activity during this time. // Taking musical influences from all these surroundings as well as healthy doses of American musical sounds, the 1970s saw the evolution of a new generation of creative Venezuelan artists such as Vytas Brenner, Angel Rada, Pablo Schneider and Miguel Angel Fuster, who all explored the possibilities of creating a stunning ‘melting pot’ mix of underground rock, synthetic electronics, funk, jazz and Latin American while simultaneously exploring their links with Venezuelan roots music, creating a new sound. // Double vinyl comes with extended text and artists biographies across two inners + download. // REVIEWS: “A Fantastic Release” Latino Life // “Groundbreaking” Vinyl Factory // “Venezuela 70 offers a whole host of influences - progressive and psychedelic music, Afro-rock, Krautrock, Salsa & Tropicalia, jazz fusion, experimental synthesizer sounds. As Soul Jazz's excellent compilations usually are, this is researched and compiled to a very high standard” RYM
