Pablo Rosario, Danny Santiago and I (John Seda) have been friends for a long time.  We have been planning out this song for years.  It finally came to birth with the assistance of producer Danny Santiago.  Elba Lugo and Pablito Rosario rehearsed the song in Puerto Rico.  Elba Lugo brought with her to Tampa some instruments that are over 500 years old.  It was real important to Pablito that we use these original instruments once used by the Taino Indians of Puerto Rico.  This song is unique because of the nature of the music.  Just pure percussion.  No Compressors! No Gates!  No Mic Pre's were used in tracking or mixing process.  Just good sounding mics made this recording possible.  Experience the enchantment of the rhythms that the Bujiti will bring to you.  Please sit back and listen.
