In order to pay homage to the great musicians of Creole and Latin American folklore, the band and Diego Perez Bogarín Charo performed a selection of seven subjects after reversion to the style that characterizes electrofolk. This juicy

delivery, electronic mergers are perceived in the melodies but also made the side to make room for more unplugged and primitive sounds like the chaschas, accordion and n'biké - instrument a string, typical of the Toba community -. From the opening track, "What have I got to love" by Violeta Parra, to "Toba Indian" by Ariel Ramirez and Felix Luna, carved steps is a constant interplay between classical and new sounds in the language of the people naturalized tuff occurs as if the songs had been written that way.

Half disc, the duo Chaco surprised by the audacity to interpret the historic popular song "Five centuries alike," de León Gieco, Toba language and rested on a gentle melody featuring the drum, guitar and an electronic base lost among the strings. But is not the only oddity, and also recreate "Cacique Catalan, Luis Mendoza, Mocoví language and a happy tune.

But little more hard disk half an hour (they say that "good twice as good if brief), for which they are eager to hear more, offered as a bonus video track of" Indio Toba "in a more electronic, interpreted by Charo Bogarín and Diego Perez.

On another level, the cover art is notable for its clear reference to the nature and contact with humans as part of the landscape. A tiger leaning on the arm of a man, trees, plants and even a horse-headed man (or horse to human body), give the impression that all is one, and lead to the idea of \u200b\u200bthe roots and origin .

The sum of details makes The steps carved miss classic disc. Has a unique personality for achieving air parle other popular songs that have already been performed on several occasions. Fresh and intense, this is a production recommended for fans of folklore and for ears accustomed to the new sounds.
