"No Es Casualidad [2004]" (11/02/2004) International Prabu, Yoskar El, Sony Discos Inc.Personnel: M rtires de Le¢n (guitar). Recording information: EMCA. Arranger: M rtires de Le¢n. Bachata is quickly becoming the voice of this generation, as it overtakes merengue as the favored style of the Dominican Republic and her sons and daughters abroad. As emerging young talent continue to favor the genre's transparent, spare rhythm sections and romantic melodies, fans will be blessed with a higher and higher level of quality. Yoskar "El Prabu" Sarante is among the best singers who claim bachata as their own. Contemporaries of Sarante, like Andy Andy or the boys of Aventura, though trend-setting in their own right, could not stand beside him for sheer vocal prowess. El Prabu effortlessly commands a mature, rich tone and impressive range typically associated with older artists. Though Sarante can belt beyond his years, No Es Casualidad on the whole falls into many of the traps typical of the young genre. There is almost no variety in instrumentation, key, tempo, or tonal color, which could be fine for the radio market, but hard on the album buyer. Though it may be difficult to listen to from front to back, this 2002 release offers promise for greatness to come as his style matures. ~ Evan C.

"Hasta el Fin" (10/19/2004) International Monchy & Alexandra, J&N Records/FaniaMonchy & Alexandra: Monchy, Alexandra (vocals). Additional personnel: Martires D' Leon (guitar, mandolin, programming); Jose Jaquez, Isaias Leclerc (bass instrument); Jose F. Diaz (guiro); Juan Manuel Martinez, Juan De La Cruz (percussion); Grupo Coral Romana. Monchy & Alexandra combine salsa & merengue music with American pop on HASTA EL FIN. Largely consisting of passionate love songs, this 2004 release features stunning vocal performances, tight musicianship, and resplendent production. As with many Latin albums, the percussion is the backbone of the ensemble and the driving force behind the music. For example, on "Esperando Estar Juntos" and "No Te Prometo Que Si (Tratare de Olvidar)," the congas, bongos, and guiro lay down a taut groove, while Monchy & Alexandra's legato voices soliloquize overtop. On HASTA EL FIN, Monchy & Alexandra do not offer up any of the wilder, more celebratory, forms of merengue and salsa (a la Tito Puente); instead, this is scaled-down romantic music in the bachata vein. Because the music is so intimate, HASTA EL FIN is better suited for a candle-lit dinner than a dance hall.
