Our Take

Oscar Hernandez & Alma Libre's latest album "Love The Moment" is like a piñata full of musical treats. Hernandez, a renowned pianist and composer, leads this band of talented musicians on a Latin jazz journey that is as vibrant and infectious as a tropical cocktail.

The album kicks off with the sizzling track "La Fiesta" which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Hernandez's piano skills are on full display here, dancing around the pulsating rhythms laid down by the rest of the band. It's a party in song form, and everyone's invited.

Throughout the album, Alma Libre impresses with their tight musicianship and ability to effortlessly blend Latin, jazz, and funk influences. Tracks like "Cubano Chant" and "Descarga Libre" showcase the band's versatility and chemistry, with each member given a chance to shine.

But it's not all high-energy jams on "Love The Moment." The album also features moments of reflection and introspection, such as on the gorgeous ballad "Danzon Para Claire." Hernandez's delicate touch on the keys is mesmerizing, and the band's restraint allows the melody to truly shine.

In conclusion, "Love The Moment" is a joyous celebration of life, love, and music. Oscar Hernandez & Alma Libre have crafted a captivating album that will have you tapping your feet and reaching for the nearest piña colada. So put on your dancing shoes and let yourself be swept away by the infectious rhythms of this must-listen record.
