Our Take

Latin Quarter's "Modern Times Plus" is a whimsical journey through time and genre, with vibrant Latin rhythms and catchy hooks that will have you dancing in your living room, even if you're a terrible dancer like me.

The album opens with the infectious "Modern Times," a toe-tapping blend of salsa and pop that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Lead singer Steve Skaith's vocals are charming and effortless, transporting listeners to a world where every day feels like a sunny summer afternoon.

Tracks like "Radio Africa" and "Nomzamo" showcase the band's political consciousness, with sharp lyrics that cut through the noise of modern life. The combination of thought-provoking social commentary and uplifting melodies makes for a truly memorable listening experience.

Throughout "Modern Times Plus," Latin Quarter effortlessly blend genres, styles, and languages, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. From the reggae-infused "Truth About John" to the jazzy "Swimming Against the Tide," each track offers something new and exciting for listeners to sink their teeth into.

In a world filled with cookie-cutter pop songs and lifeless electronic beats, Latin Quarter's "Modern Times Plus" is a breath of fresh air. It's the kind of album that reminds you why you fell in love with music in the first place, and for that, we salute them.
