PROJECT AND PORTFOLIO
Portfolio III
The following track in this project is a remix of an original song that I released in December 2020. The remix has elements from not only R&B, but also Salsa and Reggaeton as well. I found the perfect singer for this remix, R&B/Latin artist from The Canary Islands, Spain - Diana Feria. She's singer, song writer, pianists, vocal arranger, and producer. According to her information via Soundbetter, Diana's work can be found on/with: Netflix, Universal Music Group, Happy Feet 2, Married To Medicine, Bravo TV, Nicky Jam, T-Boz of TLC, Jorge Luis Chacin, and Jon Secada.
The two reference tracks that I utilized were: Chocquibtown - Salsa y Choque Featuring Ñejo, and Daddy Yankee - De Vuelta Pa' La Vuelta Featuring Marc Anthony. The idea was to blend elements from Latin America and the Caribe (Salsa and Reggaeton) with elements from the R&B style of 70s Soul/Neo-Soul; enabling lovers of these genre to enjoy listening to this particular fusion.
Here is my reaction video when I first heard all of Diana's takes.
