Carolina Oliveros, the Barranquilla-born singer-songwriter and star vocalist of Combo Chimbita, makes a bold move with "RAYO," featuring Orquesta Akokán. The track is based on a Santería chant and a disko beat, setting spiritual reflection within a lively musical context. The song's central idea of reconciling opposing forces, of bringing harmony between the fire that drives change and the water that sustains it, is at the heart of the movement. "RAYO" is celebratory and thoughtful, and Oliveros makes it happen organically, with rhythm and spirituality hand in hand. It's a sobering reminder that contradiction can also create balance.
