(LOS ANGELES – MAY 27, 2014) – A year ago, Carlos Vives released an album that was predestined to come back into the hearts of fans who waited eight years for his return to the international music scene. The first part of “Corazon Profundo” not only led in sales, his singles reached the top of the Billboard charts, and was praised and rewarded. It also needed a second part, which today the Colombian singer presents to the world, it is the continuity of a CD that is now known as “Mas + Corazon Profundo”. “For the first time in my career I did two albums in one year, this gives me the opportunity to incorporate what was missing in the first, including the cumbias, and vallenatos, and experimenting with the porros. Here we mixed sounds, those musical patterns which I always speak about, this album is better in every way, it has all the learnings of my songwriting. You’ll also find surprising songs done in ways I’ve never done before, a whole different sound.” Explains Carlos Vives.
“Más + Corazón Profundo” has the same winning formula shown at the 2013 Latin Grammys with the first version of “Corazon Profundo”; songs composed by Carlos, music and production shared with the award winning Colombian producer, Andres Castro, mix engineer Curt Schneider, and mastered by Tom Coyne, recorded in studios in Los Angeles, Miami, and Colombia.
In this unreleased album comes 10 completely new songs with additional bonus tracks (The two versions of “La Copa De Todos” the official anthem of Coca Cola for the World Cup in English/Spanish and Portugese/Spanish). In addition, the salsa version of “La Foto De Los Dos” and the extended version of “Volvi a Nacer”, the original version as Carlos wrote it.
The album has already produced it’s first single, “El Mar De Sus Ojos” which is dominating on the radio charts in Colombia at the #1 spot, as well as on iTunes. It was also #1 on Billboard’s latin chart in the US.
The next single is one of the most anticipated songs off the album, “Cuando Nos Volvamos a Encontrar”, a collaboration with international salsa star, Marc Anthony. |
