about

The first release from ESSO Arojam Funkbeat's 2020 album "Xicago." ANIMAL features lead guitar by Armando Perez and a full horn section featuring Kevin Miller, Matthew Davis, and Bo Osinski, live drum kit and Moog by Dan Lieber, and vocals including Diana Mosquera and the ESSO coro.

Building from natural found sounds and a minimal dance beat, this work gradually ascends with sounds of howling animals, and spirals in psychedelic musical textures; finally arriving to the prayer chant "God of Sun, God of Moon, bring me fortune for my pain."

lyrics

Rayo de luna, rayos de sol
Traeme fortuna pa mi dolor
