PC Records wants to start the year with everything

PC Records is a label that showed talent and potential during a year that was hard for everyone, where the world began to face a pandemic that has devastated many people. But precisely in this environment of confinement and taking care of ourselves, music has flourished, becoming company for many and even a way to release stress and seek happiness.

During this year PC Records showed us a variety of styles from reggaeton, through bachata and merengue to salsa and jazz. The independent label wants to continue its good streak in 2021, publicizing more artists and musical proposals for the enjoyment of the Latin and American public, as expressed by Hamilton Caucayo, president of PC Records with 35 years of experience. Among which we find:

Luis Damon and his “Rompecabezas”

Luis Damon, a New Yorker with Puerto Rican blood in his veins, grew up in the Bronx and was surrounded by music from a very young age. His first production in Spanish came out in 1996 and from there it was only hits after hits. Nominated for Los Premios Lo Nuestro, Luis has managed to maintain a solid career. On this occasion he presents us “Rompecabezas” an urban Latin pop single written by Obie Bermudez, another Puerto Rican with the collaboration of Luis himself, the production was in charge of Julius Cesar.

OWY’s “La Iniciativa”

Oswaldo Paternostro is better known as OWY and is one of PC Records’ new proposals for this year. OWY is a singer, songwriter and producer from Colombia, who has dedicated himself to the urban genre, reaching a great reception among young audiences. He was born and raised in Barranquilla under the protection of his grandparents, who have always supported him. Now he presents “La Iniciativa” with which he wants to continue conquering the Latin markets.

Homero Gallardo presents “GOD Love UFO”

The talented Jazz artist Homero Gallardo was PC Records’ bet to close 2020 and start 2021 strong. Homero was born and raised in Guayaquil, Ecuador and from a very young age he felt a passion for music, managing to perform with great artists from the southern region. He later moved to Miami to continue his music studies focusing on Jazz, but making himself known in the city’s music scene, which led him to be close to artists such as Thalía and Luis Fonsi.

Ayash wants to be “Como Tú”

Ayash is another of PC Records’ new proposals, with her they want to bet on female talent, with a young woman who defines herself as powerful, with attitude and security, but who at the end of the day is still an incurable romantic and loves being in love. With her new single “Como Tú” the artist with Spanish origins but raised in Orange County, California shows Mediterranean fusion rhythms and a very personal story. Ayash is currently living in Miami where she bets on the warmth of the Spanish-speaking public.

These proposals are just the beginning of what we hope will be a great year for PC Records, with its talented artists and their hard work who continue to make their Latin origins proud.

Marlow Rosado “The Dalí of music” as he is known, closes the year talking about his latest productions and what is coming this 2021.

Marlow Rosado, is a Puerto Rican pianist who has made his way into the salsa genre. A very versatile and creative artist, he has been one of the lucky Latinos to be a Latin Grammy winner. He is an arranger, composer and conductor, his style delves into fusions of Latin jazz and Afro-Cuban traditions. However, he does not hesitate to reinvent himself after each musical production, without losing the flavor that has become his personal hallmark. He leans for the aggressive but fresh and modern rhythm. In addition, he is recognized for his quality productions.

“Before the issue of the pandemic, I had released an album … ‘Feminomanía’ a project where the voices are female. The musical production was at its peak, the pandemic arrived and everything came to a standstill, “said the Puerto Rican established in Miami city.

The project concentrated the diversity of different singers of the genre, among them: Carolina La O, Michelle Brava, Brenda K Starr and Aymee Nuviola. In addition, it has 13 songs and the musical participation of Marlow.

Rosado, was one of those artists who took advantage of the global pandemic to the fullest and decided not to lock themselves in apathy. During 2020, he performed two songs that marked his year. They are completely different but were made with the same love and dedication: one of salsa and another of Latin jazz.

Faced with the paralysis of activities worldwide, Marlow opted to enter the recording studio and give life to new productions.

“I went into the studio to produce another album and I started working on two at the same time. From the beginning, he had spoken with singer Frankie Negrón to do a salsa production. The album is called ‘Los colores de la salsa’ in allusion to our surnames Rosado and Negrón. Frankie recently moved to Miami, which made recording easy”, said Rosado.

The artist served as the composer of all the songs, as well as the musical arrangements.

“In the production ‘Los colores de la salsa’ there is a song called ‘Boricuas en Nueva York’ that has that Christmas air and we wanted to release it now to create an energy around those two albums that are coming in February” he added.

“Boricuas en Nueva York” with Frankie Negrón, was distributed under the JN Music Group label. The song has a Puerto Rican salsa rhythm, along with the voices of both singers who emigrated from Puerto Rico to the United States. Rosado was very pleased to work together with Negrón and to give this suitable theme for Christmas.

“Orun” is the following record production, made within the Latin jazz genre and very different from “Los Colores de la Salsa”. With this job he fulfilled a dream he had always had.

“I had always wanted to make a Latin jazz record. I’m a good jazz player and a fan of Edddie Palmieri. I love the career he has made linking salsa and latin jazz at the same time. I made the two albums, I presented them in JN Music Group, they liked them and they quickly told me we want to release them. Both will go on the market in February 2021 ”, said the artist.

The album featured the collaboration of Cuban-born pianist Chucho Valdés and saxophonist Ed Calle. For some, betting on new releases amid the global pandemic was a challenge. However, Rosado took it with good energy and believes that it is not impossible to give them the boost he wants.

“Who knows what happens. Sometimes you make an album at the best times and under the best circumstances and nothing happens. I am positive. I did these two projects in difficult times and look, I got them signed for me. So far I have managed to make the records and have the production company put them out… things that maybe under regular circumstances would not have achieved. We are going to think that this pandemic has come with the happiness that I have been able to make these two albums and that they are going to continue with the push they have been doing so far “, said the musician

Marlow has worked with the best of the industry. He created a song for Yolandita Monge (“Sentimiento Borinqueño”), he has participated in productions by Alejandra Guzmán, Ricky Martin, El Gran Combo, Elvis Crespo, the Puerto Rican Power orchestra, among others. He has also worked with Celia Cruz, Selena, Ricardo Montaner, Olga Tañón, and many more.

Rosado is very dear to the children who have known him. In fact, he taught in elementary schools, sharing his passion for music with new generations. His first big break came from being able to work alongside Desmond Child, an American producer and songwriter who has been associated with renowned bands like Aerosmith, Bon Jovi and Kiss. A big leap in his career!

He is the typical Latino who loves his country, and grew up surrounded by his origins. Salsa accompanied him throughout his life. Before he was 10 years old, he was given an electronic organ and it was at that moment that everything changed for him.

He has won two Grammys, an achievement that fills him with great pride.

“The Grammys are my before and after in my career. They have given me the right to say: Look, I am right. I have always had my mind outside of what is commercial, making the music that I want to do. The Grammys have given me the right to know that I was right… where my music is going”, he said.

In 2009, together with his orchestra La Riqueña, he recorded his first album known as “Salsalsa”. For Marlow, the team he had was of another level: “The best musicians.” Then, in 2012 came “Retro”, along with his first Grammy Award; “Salsanimal” in 2014; “Harlow Marlow, volume 1” in 2016; and “Feminomanía”.

Harlow Marlow, Vol. 1 mixed elegant style with modern elements and salsa brava. The album was a tribute to his friend Harlow.

“I have a very special respect and affection for Larry Harlow. I have known him for many years. I have worked with him many times. When he came to Miami to play, I put the orchestra together for him. I have an unforgettable memory when I played the Hommy Opera at Lincoln Center. Larry conducted and I played the piano. For me it was an honor. One of the best gifts I have ever received was from him. He gave me the piano that looks like a guitar and I keep it in my studio with great pride. The connection with him is something special ”.

Salsa is its flag and it will continue to innovate within it. Marlow’s career continues to climb. A pianist who has been called “The Dalí of music” because his hands become brushes when he plays the piano, just like the painter’s canvases.
