Saltataki's "Alive" is an anthem for celebration of life [Review]

 Saltataki's new song, "Alive," brings a fresh breeze of unrestrained life, a soul-uplifting mix of young spirit, Latin American culture, and gourmet pop fresh from the heart of Patagonia. "Alive" is a genuine family song. 12-year-old Indi sings the raw and captivating vocal, 11-year-old Lumi adds trombones to the warmth, Nadine on violin adds the emotion, and Sabino brings the Andes to the table through traditional flutes and charango. The outcome is a song complex enough to build layers of distorted sounds for its soundscape.

"Alive" draws you into a bright, saturated, and emotionally powerful environment. The instrumentation has a levity, but it's not frivolous. Saltataki has created a song that flirts with the edge of celebration and introspection, a reminder of the unadulterated weight of pure existence. Latin folk instrumentation meets modern pop embellishments to create a song with a nostalgic yet forward-looking vibe, something that's in short supply and totally welcome.

Saltataki is a band and Argentine family of musicians who bleed for their art. Rooted in Salta and reared on the road, their music is soaked with experience, freedom, and love. Each note sounds handmade, and each rhythm is carefully placed as if it were musical storytelling tales shared by firelight beneath a Patagonian sky. "Alive" reminds us that music can be real and human, stirring the soul.
