Jimena Angel
After two decades as a pop singer in her native Colombia, Mexico and the USA, Jimena picked up the call of the Caribbean wild and left the big city behind. In Magdalena she built a makeshift studio with an aged laptop, a mic, an electric guitar and the jungle for a recording booth. The slow pace and luxuriant natural surroundings renewed her creativity and inspired her last EP "Aire". Recorded during the lockdown between Colombia, Lisboa, Quito, Paris and Berlin under the artistic direction of French producer iZem, Jimena also called on sax player Ben Abarbanel-Wolff (Pat Thomas, Ebo Taylor, Guts), broken beat producer Nikitch, Jori Collignon (Skip & Die) and Ecuadorian producer Joaquin Cornejo. Her high-spirited next single "Plátano Maduro", with hints of afrobeat and a playful groove denounces the clear-cutting of primary rainforest in favor of a banana monoculture unsustainable for the environment. Jimena has been active since 1995, when she formed the band “Pepa Fresa”, which established Jimena as one of the first female vocalists of the “rock nacional” scene. Shortly after, drawn to Colombian rhythms and electronic beats, she became part of the iconic "Sidestepper" with which she toured extensively around Europe. In 2009 she released a first solo album “Dia Azul” and was nominated for a Latin Grammy. Four years later she delivered a second album “Todo Reverdece” and in 2018 she collaborated with Brain Damage, adding latin flavours to the dub tracks of “Ya no mas”.
