Aris Martinez Trombonazo Limpio CD

 Dancing up a storm.
The first song on this cd "Ni tiguere gallo, ni pariguayo" will have you dancing up a salsa storm. And the rest of the songs on the cd will have you dancing as well. Dj Amador

 Cuidado "Canario" AUUUU!,
Reviewer: Hector Reyes-erazo Aris Martínez is only preparing us for what's to come. This finely tuned musician has a lot to celebrate musically. We need to make room for him. Judging from his freshman solo CD, he can swing hard and with the very best of today's soneros including José "El Canario" Alberto. Admittedly, his arrangements possess that classic Puerto Rican salsa flavor, a sure way to engratiate salsa romatica lovers or attract radio play. This does not take away one step from the willing dancers. I only caution Mr. Martínez not to fall prey to cliché arrangements which too often lean toward salsa mongolica. His lyrics are modern and relevant today. They are intelligent and very clever. The "howl" you occassionally hear that punctuates his muscular vocals is original, what a nice signature for a new solo artist on the scene. I believe Mr. Martínez is a sonero we'll be hearing from a whole lot more in the future. I just hope he receives an appropriate amount of marketing and distribution for his caliber. "Ni Tiguerre Gallo ni Ni Pariguayo" says it all about the quality of his compositions and what I believe is to come. Every so often an artist appears on the scene, which you immediately recognize to be a great one in the making: Mr. Martínez certainly fits this bill. Don't hesitate to purchase this CD. Auuuu! ***** 5 Stars
