Bomba Estéreo is back with its new song "Duele" , and it is the first advance that comes from its next record production that will be released this year.
The main melody of the song has influence of the Middle East and was recorded with a flute of millo, instrument typical of the cumbieros of the Caribbean Region of Colombia. In addition, it was recorded in the town of Minca in the Sierra Nevada, near Santa Marta, the hometown of Liliana Saumet , vocalista of the band.
"The milo flute has been one of the most inspiring instruments of our career," commented Simon Mejia, a member of the group. "We've used it since our first album 'Break Out'. It has a beautiful and particular sound with roots in the traditions of cumbia. I remember playing it for producer Brian Eno when I met him and he said, 'Oh my God, I've never heard a sound like that in my life!' "
As if that were not enough, Bomba Estéreo announced its world tour that includes special performances in prestigious festivals like Outside Lands (USA) and Bestival (United Kingdom).
