Elastic Bond Miami’s Own World Music Band. The connection comes when you turn it up, and you’re transported to a tropical psychedelic paradise. EB mixes traditional Latin, Soul and Afro grooves with modern electronic sounds, soulful vocals and good vibes. Venezuelan producer Andres Ponce and Honduran singer-songwriter Sofy Encanto formed the band in 2006, and soon after guitarist Buffalo Brown and trumpet player David Burgos joined forces to expand its unique sound.
Timothy Brownie via Mexico.Timothy Brownie is organic music with an electronic feel… a mixture of rooftop funk-disco-electro with a dash of Latin rhythms.If the band’s actual history helps you any, here goes. Del Toro met guitarist and theremin player Andres Cruz in Uruguay and the two began playing music together to see what would come of it. They were soon joined by percussionist and keyboardist Gonzalo Sandoval and bassist Mariano Lanus. Later, sax man Javier “Chapa” Cavacini came into the fold, “And that’s where the recipes began to be created,” he concludes.
