Description

Her 2nd long player, rooted in Cuba�s classic rhythms, encompasses the rich, diverse musical make-up of Daym�s home whilst looking outward too � to the world she has spent the last two years traveling. It�s her most polished, fully realised project since meeting her mentor (and record label head), Gilles Peterson, in 2012. Her rigorous classical training has informed an interconnected vision of Cuban music, where inspiration comes from the Caribbean island�s different rhythms and styles � from Guant�namo�s fast-paced chang��, to ubiquitous guaguanc� and �70s-style ballada. Sung mainly in Spanish, Daym� drops into English (and even tries out a little French) when the mood takes her. Produced alongside Soundway artist Dexter Story, with string arrangements from Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, this is heritage music for modern-day citizens of the world.
