A record born from the earth that belongs to the night. Four years after releasing their debut record, Indus are back in 2024 with Negra, their second album. This record explores the essence of the night through dance, seduction and mystery, while paying homage to Colombian amphibious cultures and the land as that place that has seen us moving and that we always return to.
With these ten songs Barranquilla producer Óscar Alford, along with Andres Mercado and a select group of collaborators, builds a bridge between the sounds and stories of the Pacific and the Caribbean, bringing together territories like a river running through them and connecting them. Óscar says that on this record “there’s this confluence of various cultural universes, on the one hand there’s the traditional music of the coast and river areas, there are various maestros who collaborated on the record who brought that flavor, also there’s electronica which is a universal language, and even hip hop and more urban genres like dembow.”
The album features collaborations with icons of traditional Colombian music like Nelda Piña and Pacho Torres. Also new urban music artists like N. Hardem, Tomás Llerena (grandson of Petrona Martínez) and other musicians from the Pacific and Caribbean. The concept of the record is the land and the night. The fertile, diverse land of the tropics represented by ancestral rhythms and voices, the night reflected in acid sequences evoking the frenzy of the fiesta.
