Indo - Afro - Cuban - Jazz
Secrets of the Little Devil is Jazz innovation by combining Afro-Cuban and Asian drums.
To make this sound recording as spontaneous as possible, the producer has agreed with the musicians that they play over without rehearsing or previously listening to the basedrum track composed by Tata Güines and Django Mango. None of the musicians asked the sound engineer to rewind the master tape, because they were unsure or wanted to repeat a particular phrase. We can say, that Secrets of the Little Devil, is music from the heart that proves the outstanding improvisation qualities of the Cuban Jazz musicians. I will like to express my love and gratitude to all the artist that cooperative in Secrets of the Little Devil.
