“Years ago, on one of my tours as a DJ, I was welcomed for the first time at Triana, the Gypsy quarter of Seville, Spain, the birthplace of Flamenco. I immediately fell in love with the people, tastes, sounds and vibe that resonated from every part of this small neighborhood. Walking its streets, it was as if music echoed from every wall. I understood that Flamenco is much more than music, it’s a lifestyle.”

The roots of flamenco, though somewhat mysterious, seem to lie in the Gypsy migration from Rajasthan (in northwest India) to Spain between the 9th and 14th centuries. These migrants brought with them musical instruments, such as tambourines, bells, and wooden castanets, and an extensive repertoire of songs and dances. In Spain they encountered the rich cultures of the Sephardic Jews and Moors. Their centuries-long cultural intermingling produced the unique art form known as Flamenco, music commonly associated with the Andalusian region of southern Spain.

This pack highlights the artistic and captivating style of Flamenco vocalists. A soulful and spiritual expression, unique to the genre but able to be dropped into modern productions for added intensity and flare.
