When it's so dreary outside, it's wonderful when I hear a song that just sparks off all that ASMR.
And yup, I am talking about the splendid salsa band from Japan, Orquesta De La Luz. From hearing their material and seeing them perform with their joie de vivre, the well-named Orchestra of the Light got me to buy their 2nd album "Salsa No Tiene Frontera" from 1991. And from that album, I present to you "El Me Ama, Yo Le Amo" (He Loves Me, I Love Him).
Beginning with something that sounds like 1990s City Pop balladry, there is no doubt that Orquesta De La Luz will go into their familiar dance-triggering (or at least shoulder-shimmying in my seat) salsa rhythms. It's been such a long time since I've heard this one that getting my aural reunion brought me back to first-time listening status. By the way, "Salsa No Tiene Frontera" also has a track that I first wrote about in the very early days of the blog, "Watashi wa Piano" (私はピアノ).
