Chloe Despax & Felix Blume - Agua Larga: Traditional & Imaginary Cimarron Music (Vinyl)

Agua Larga: Traditional & Imaginary Cimarron Music is a unique ethnomusicological journey crafted by French sound artists Chloé Despax and Félix Blume. Drawing from the rich oral traditions of the Afro-Ecuadorian communities in Esmeraldas province, the album fuses evocative field recordings with elements of local folk song and everyday soundscapes. The result is a vibrant tapestry that brings listeners deep into the heart of a rarely documented musical world.

What sets this release apart is its thoughtful exploration of water’s cultural significance, intertwining themes from Esmeraldas’ history with contemporary life. From heartfelt a cappella performances to abstract sonic vignettes, Agua Larga stands as both a tribute and living testimony to an underrepresented culture—making it a fascinating listen for explorers of global sound and tradition.
