"Horizonte proximo" the long-awaited album by Sur Caribe Orchestra (who just gained international fame with "Añoranza por la Conga") is just on Cubamusic.com, in exclusive world pre-launch mp3, to be downloaded.
The CD will be on the market at the start of 2010, published by the Cuban label Egrem.

"Horizonte próximo" is a great Album to dance and listen and really a new jump of quality in Sur Caribe´s musical work destined to an international panorama.

Leyva proposes atmospheres and sounds of extraordinary impact. He shows a rare ability to mix different genres such as conga, pop, salsa, bachata and a new "cubaton" (reggaeton mixed with conga) into one style, but keeping the trademark of Sur Caribe: high-powered Cuban rhythms, elegance and great harmonies.

The 14 trackses of the Album gather emblematic personalities of the Cuban Music: Juan Formell (first time ever singing without Frank Fernández, all those present in the song "Sí".
Also featuring: guitar player Elmer Ferrer ("Bonito Bonito", conga), singer Coco Freeman, Enrique Bonne and Elvis Manuel ("Ella y ustedes dos") last recording from the young reggaeton star, who disappeared last year.

It's hard to predict the best hits: the traditional conga "Arrollando por la ciudad", or "Bonito Bonito", (conga-pop), or "Donde mi cubana" (conga-house); or "Sí" (popular-symphonic) or the cubaton "Ella y ustedes dos", or the Cuban Son "Todo por el Son". Probably, the whole CD will be in absolute the new hit of the Cuban Music 2010. The album includes three video clips: "Arrollando por la ciudad", "Bonito Bonito" (recorded in London) and "Donde mi Cubana".
