A very unique sound was developed within the narrow boundaries of Montevideo, the country's capital city, by just a small group of very talented artists. These sounds reverberated in singer-songwriting (\u003cb\u003eEduardo Darnauchans\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eFernando Cabrera\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eEstela Magnone\u003c\/b\u003e), jazz fusion approximations (\u003cb\u003eHugo Fattoruso\u003c\/b\u003e's \u003cb\u003eLa Escuelita\u003c\/b\u003e), experimental music (\u003cb\u003eLeo Maslíah\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eHugo Jasa\u003c\/b\u003e), and the work of musicians at the intersections of these worlds (\u003cb\u003eJaime Roos\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eMariana Ingold\u003c\/b\u003e). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAmérica Invertida\u003c\/i\u003e, ethereal vocal arrangements and acoustic guitars cohabit with synthesizers and drum machines; Candombe and Latin American music form a fellowship with new wave and dream pop. However, the overwhelming musical harvest produced by giant neighbors, Brazil and Argentina, shadowed any attempt for this scene to transcend beyond the local market. It's only now, a few decades later, when some of those records have achieved cult status among a discreet group of collectors that try hard to get hold of those titles, pressed in only tiny numbers at the time. No wonder, the timeless beauty of these songs remains in full effect while retaining the uniqueness of a sound resulting from multiple cultural encounters on the streets of Montevideo. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis compilation, \u003ci\u003eAmérica Invertida\u003c\/i\u003e, reveals part of this hidden world.
