Julián Mayorga / CHAK CHAK CHAK CHAK

“Listening to Julián Mayorga is hearing the current Colombian sound taken to even more exciting terrain. His music is everything that defines him: experimentation, humor, reflection, passion.” — Vogue (Mexico)

Avant-garde Colombian singer-songwriter Julián Mayorga returns with his ninth album, a clattering, absurdist slice of post-cumbia psychedelia. Chak Chak Chak Chak is a feverish mix of angular electric guitars, circuit-bent beats, found percussion and rapid-fire incantations, with influences that include Tom Zé, Tom Waits and Captain Beefheart.
Frenetic energy meets satirical wit. Surrealist fables entwined with defiant sonics.
