Editorial Review: Amazon.com: If Monterrey, Mexico is, indeed, the center of the Latin alternative-music universe, then native sons Kinky are doing a great job of spreading the gospel. The five-piece collective's self-titled debut is an infectious collision of wah-wah guitars, pounding dance beats, and home-cooked rhythm and brass. The band injects just enough authentic tang in its music to raise an eyebrow with the traditionalists, while playing songs demented enough to lure in fans of new-school Mexican electro-pop acts like Plastilina Mosh and Titan. Produced by British tastemaker Chris Allison, whose previous clients include Coldplay and the Beta Band, the album floats on a blissful groove throughout, snaking through styles as diverse as retro shout-along funk ("Mas"), slick, Moby-like trance ("The Great Spot"), and Daft Punk-influenced electro ("Ejercicio #16"), without overpowering Kinky's own emerging identity. --Aidin Vaziri Customer Reviews

 Rating: - una de las bandas mas originales que haya escuchadoBUeno quiza para empezar pudiera decir que el disco lo tiene todo, desde salsa, rock, jazz, funk, electronica por supuesto, todo lo que un fanatico de la musica espera de un disco lo puede encontrar en este disco sin ningun riesgo de decepcion. LO recomiendo a quien sea que aprecie la musica en todos los sentidos. No hay ninguna cancion debil, todas son disfrutables y placenteras y por supuesto bailables jeje... a todos los fanaticos de la musica, este es un cd que no puedes dejar pasar por alto. Rating: - movin music!Oh man, these latin electro fussion sounds are hot! I like to listen to Kinky in the SLK with the top down on a sunny day because it keeps me going 100mph even when I am at a stop light. A music drug of choice! Rating: - A great originalAfter listening to their disappointing sophomore album, "Atlas", I was compelled to write about how great Kinky's debut effort actually is. This album is all about unabashed creativity, while not trying to target any specific market. The sound is all over the map - you'd like to put it in some neat little category but it won't fit there. It doesn't fit anywhere, and that's what's great about it. Full of energy, with electric guitars, conga drums, electro-beats, the occasional vocoder, goofy Spanish lyrics, it's hard not to get a buzz listening to this CD. Not only do their songs sound like they could be used in commercials, they ARE used in commercials (ie. "Mas" used for the Nissan Altima). I've seen these guys live and they pumped even more ...

Inventive, high energy, pure shake-your-booty music, which is why I didn't mind the absence of a strong, lead singer. In fact, for these guys, it is a plus because it doesn't distract from the grooves they are laying down. Yes, the on-site store was SOLD OUT of their CDs the minute the concert was over!! So are others in the area, which helps explain why a bunch of us have stampeded here. Rating: - Kinky rocked big time at BumbershootOK, to be honest -- I haven't heard this CD. So this is a recommendation for the band, not the CD. I wanted to mention that Kinky really had the crowd rocking at Bumbershoot 2003 in Seattle. REALLY rockin'. Kinky had the crowd going better than any other I saw -- even some big names. There is a TON of great music at Bumbershoot so it really says something when a crowd reacts to a band so positively. I'd guess that most people had not heard of Kinky but they instantly liked them. It was one of those great scenes. The music I heard them play kind of defies category but think techno-dance with a Mexican flavour. If you're tired of the same-old, give Kinky a listen! I'm going to. |
