ESQUIVEL.
Click to unfollow
Juan García Esquivel, was a Mexican band leader, pianist, and composer considered today as one of the foremost exponents of a sophisticated, quirky style of largely instrumental music that combines elements of lounge music and jazz with Latin flavours. Sometimes called "The King of Space Age Pop”, Esquivel’s musical style was highly idiosyncratic, with many instantly recognizable stylistic traits, including exotic percussion, wordless vocals, virtuoso piano runs and exaggerated dynamic shifts. He used many jazz-like elements; however, other than his piano solos, there is no improvisation and the works are tightly, meticulously arranged.
