Jorge Aguilar y Sus Embelecos Featuring Tapha Gaye - New Single
ASTAR ARTES announces a vibrant new musical collaboration with
Jorge Aguilar y Sus Embelecos featuring Tapha Gaye.
On December 5th we proudly unveil our latest project that unites the radiant artistry of Colombian singer-songwriter Jorge Aguilar with blazing lines from Senegalese guitarist Tapha Gaye. This is fresh and uplifting!
Their new single Eres Tú Mi Rosa, created with the vision and production skills of John Hollis, delivers a joyful explosion of sound steeped in heritage and innovation.
From Colombia’s Caribbean coast, Jorge Aguilar infuses his music with the cultural richness and rhythmic vitality of his region. Eres Tú Mi Rosa emerges as a vibrant anthem shaped by the pulse of the Berroche rhythm, born along the banks of the great Magdalena River. The track is powered by deep, earthy tambores whose steady heartbeat anchors the song with an irresistible groove.
Adding to this foundation are guitars performed by Tapha Gaye, weaving bright, melodic lines that shimmer against the percussion. It also introduces the Tama, whose expressive, dynamic tones create a powerful bridge between the Caribbean soundscape and its African roots. This blending of instruments effortlessly connects continents and traditions, reminding listeners of the shared rhythmic ancestry that unites Afro-Caribbean and West African music.
Aguilar’s soaring melodies dance above this rich sonic tapestry, while Hollis’s production brings clarity, warmth, and vibrant cohesion to the entire arrangement. Together, the trio craft a sound that feels both grounded in tradition and refreshingly modern.
Eres Tú Mi Rosa stands as a celebration of love, cultural lineage, and the universal language of rhythm.
Mark your calendars for December 5th, as we continue to spotlight innovative musical projects that honour and elevate the diverse heritage of Latin and Afro-Caribbean artistry.
