Onda Esoterica [LP]

Money Chicha - Onda Esoterica [LP]

Money Chicha, the Austin-based collective featuring members of the Grammy-winning Latin orchestras Grupo Fantasma and Brownout, unveils their third full-length album, Onda Esoterica. Recorded at New Orleans' Marigny Studios, the album deepens their signature psychedelic cumbia amazonica sound with exotic textures, vintage organ swells, and inventive reinterpretations of classics such as "Cumbia Arabe." As KUTX puts it, "Listening to Money Chicha feels a bit like taking a hit of acid, downing a couple shots of Tequila, and hopping a plane to 1960s Peru -- it's the kind of music that rewires your brain, awakens your spirit animal, and takes you places you've never been." Add in some South Texas swagger and bruising Latin funk, and Onda Esoterica emerges as the band's most adventurous and transportive work to date -- a kaleidoscopic journey equal parts ritual and revelation.
