{"product_id":"pelao","title":"Pelao","description":"\u003cp\u003e'pelao' (which equally means kid, chairless or even broke), includes 11 titles, sung in spanish, french, and sometimes in a strange mixture of the two languages. in addition to other subjects, the lyrics seek to deconstruct the cliches that circulate about latin-american cultures. the story of la chiva gantiva starts in brussels with a group of colombian percussionists playing together, in order to feel closer to their homeland and its rich musical heritage. pushed by a desire to assert their roots and reproduce colombian rhythms of yesteryear, like less well known rhythms such as the champeta, the chirimia and the mapal, la chiva gantiva uses traditional caribbean instruments such as la tambora, el alegre, el llamador and maracones. la chiva gantiva does not stop there, they also incorporate instruments like the bass guitar, the clarinet and the saxophone which reflect the diverse influences of the group: colombian (with the likes of toto la momposina, lucho bermudez and petrona martinez), latin (fania all stars, irakere), african (fela kuti and tony allen), jazz (lionel hampton), funk (the legendary james brown) and rock (red hot chili peppers and rage against the machine). the various influences are also reflected in the composition of the group. aside from the three columbians, the other members are respectively french, flemish, walloon, and vietnamese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50532398334283,"sku":"344664","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/c4534d9e-416e-46bb-846a-c6902fece903_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728121228","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/pelao","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
