‘Almas Conectadas’ (Connected Souls) is a remarkable Quantic album that brings together the talents of British producer Will “Quantic” Holland and Colombian folk sensation Nidia Góngora. This sophomore release is infused with symphonic elements, showcasing the vibrant and mystical traditions of the Colombian Pacific Coast, all crafted in Quantic’s Brooklyn-based studio, Selva.
Nidia beautifully articulates the album’s essence: “Almas Conectadas refers to the interrelation of cosmic energies, the aura, and the way they manifest from the abstract; we are more than body and flesh.” This album dives deep into themes of love, loss, and cultural storytelling, all while honoring the rich heritage of the region’s music.
With its eleven exquisite tracks, ‘Almas Conectadas’ stands out as one of the best Colombian folk music albums. The captivating songwriting of Nidia Góngora, combined with Quantic’s innovative production, creates a stunning auditory experience that celebrates the intersection of musical styles and cultural narratives.
